Perfectly lit old building in the first district of Vienna, vis-á-vis from St Stephen’s Cathedral and Haas House. I believe this house is owned by ‘Bank Austria’. It is top renovated and looks very well-kept.
BTW – I haven’t used any HDR-tricks to get this picture look like that – I swear!
Nice weekend to you, Andrew >:o)
This evening I got a very special view on the ‘Riesenrad’ (giant wheel) which is one of Vienna’s most popular tourist attractions. Since 2011 a special light-solution – based on color LED’s – has been installed and gives an incredible look.
Servus from Vienna, Andrew >:o)
After the dark images of my last postings it’s time for something fresh and fluffy!
Enjoy it, Andrew >:o)
Today’s picture is taken at the bottom of stairs leading up the ‘Donaukanal’ (Danube canal) which is a former arm of the river Danube, now regulated as a water channel and borders Vienna’s city centre.
And also if you can not see what’s waiting for you at the top of the stairs – it’s clear that here the only way is up!
Heads up folks and nice evening to you,
Andrew >:o)
Todays picture shows Vienna’s underground station ‘Schottenring’ which reminds me of the famous movie ‘Metropolis’ directed by Fritz Lang, released in 1927.
Sleep well!
>:o) Andrew
No comment today – just colorful light – enjoy it!
Good night, >:o) Andrew
Todays picture is an echo of reality – a mirror image of truth – or just simply: a view rotated by 180°. This reminds me of seeking for alternate realities behind the obvious frame more often to get the maybe more beautiful image lurking behind.
For the curios reader – here’s the original version:
See you soon, >:o) Andrew
The Demel is the K.u.K. (Imperial and Royal) Court Confectionary Bakery – located at the ‘Kohlmarkt’ in Vienna’s first district – and it’s famous about its excelent and well-known Cakes and Pastries. The Bakery is also well-known for the special dressed display windows, which show the art of the confectionary baker in a humorous way as you can see at today’s picture.
Au revoir, >:o) Andrew
