Photographically speaking: should I go to Copenhagen, Prague or Barcelona?

I know they're all different but if you've visited one or more, which would offer the most variety of photographic opportunities?
Thanks!

1. From what people have shared, the one who has traveled most extensively in

Europe may be Trusty Elf.
Of the three, I've only been to Copenhagen, and I was only 16 - but I did have a camera with me.
I remember it being very beautiful, and heaven knows I remember the little mermaid statue and the Tivoli gardens.

It is Prague that is still calling me loudly this lifetime.

Though I will happily go to Barcelona after that if I can still maneuver, or I'll wait til the next go-around.
No matter what or when - travel is my Karma.

More than you wanted to know, but it's Friday evening, and I got to sit down. My most tired moments of the week...

2. Have only NOT been to Copenhagen!

Don't know about 'photographically,' as I'm not a pro. Barcelona VERY worthy that way, esp. if you like Gaudi.

3. all three have strong photo

opportunities.
Me?
I would hate to have to decide.

Prague has all the cold-war intrigue stuff for me. Copenhagen, well Danish women... might get in trouble there.

Barcelona? Might have and edge on the light which I have heard is there. I am a sucker for Spanish things too.

tough call

not much help, huh?

5. Ah! So you see my dilemma!

I don't think I could go wrong with any of them. So many places... so little time!

10. That's so the hospital knows what got you so sick. Watch the PBS show about

Spain. You could gain a lot of weight just eating your way across that country.

I do think that Prague has some old and beautiful buildings.

12. Food is slightly better in Prague

I was not really impressed with the food in Barcelona. Unfortunately. But I loved the city itself.

11. I've lived in Europe now for almost 3.5 years

Both cities are very different, as you stated. Barcelona is modern, with old sections, lots of cool Gaudi buildings, parks, the sea and more. Prague is frozen in time for the most part, gorgeous old buildings, historic bridges, panoramic settings, castles, etc. Do you have to choose between them, or could you visit both? :)

Can't give an assessment about Copenhagen because I've never been there, but I imagine it looks similar to northern Germany (L�beck for example)

13. OK. It's Copenhagen. Leave Tues for 6 days.

Will hopefully have some fotos for you all soon! Expedia had a great rate on nonstop airfare and a nice hotel.

Auf Wieder... no wait...that's German!
