Siva has been based in Prague since 2016 where he continues to work as a photographer covering Central and Eastern Europe.

He tells us of these photos, “To me, it’s a unique experience to photograph the city under lock down. An eerie experience yet so much beauty that we normally don’t stop and see.”

Editor’s note: Going out to take photos now violates the restrictions put in place in the Czech Republic to lessen the spread of the coronavirus; we ask that our readers continue to stay home and respect the rules of the quarantine.
