Maybe you know the tradition that couples mount a lock with their initials engraved on handrails of bridges as a sign of their love and fellowship.
Today I crossed the ‘Floridsdorferbrücke’ – a bridge across the Danube River connecting Vienna’s 20 and 21 district – and noticed this old, rusty lock.
And it came to my mind if this love lasted as long as this lock is mounted here? I would say let us hope so …
Have a good night, Andrew >:o)
Today Mrs. Blackmiller started her annually ‘Christmas Baking’ and that’s what I like most on christmas-time :)
Enjoy it, Yours Andrew >:o)
Today a look on the ‘Rotenturmstrasse’ at Vienna’s first district. You can see just a small part of the street in the picture. The street leads up to ‘St. Stephen’s Cathedral’ and the orbs and flags are located along the whole path.
Enjoy it, Yours Andrew >:o)
Today I’ve been shopping on ‘Mariahilferstraße’ – one of Vienna’s biggest shopping miles – and there I met this funny street-musicians playing on their crazy instruments.
Yes – you see right – the left one is an old broom with just one string and the second one is a kind of shovel with 3 strings connected to amplifiers and played like e-guitars.
But the sound wasn’t bad indeed – a little bit like country-rock – really cool guys!
Good evening, Andrew >:o)
Christmas is near so there’s no time to waste! I’ve just some days left to show you this years best christmas lighting in town, so today you get a view on the ‘spangled sky’ along ‘Kohlmarkt’ at Vienna’s first district. No mater if you like christmas – it’s a really atmospheric time in Vienna. You should visit us and see by yourself!
And by the way … all this night-shots are taken by my new ‘Olympus M.Zuiko 12-40 mm F1:2.8’ without tripod from hand. This lens rocks – believe me!
Servus from Vienna, Andrew >:o)
An office-towers ‘Glassfront’ snaped from a weird perspective.
Hope you like it, Andrew >:o)
We had some snow today and as usual, people are getting creative then. I’ve snapped this nice slogan painted on a car window. Works as the perfect christmas wish also, doesn’t it?
Peace to all of you!
Yours Andrew >:o)
Today let’s visit the ‘Hofburg Palace’ which serves as the official residence of Austria’s President. The lighting is spectacular but don’t ask for the electricity bill ;)
CU tomorrow, Andrew >:o)
