2017-12-11 STILL LIFE AT A LAKE

Some time for meditation at a lake in Carinthia. Silent waters, dusk, and a little breeze. The right time for a Yoga session. I started about half a year ago. I had some problems with my lower back, due to my weight training program at Top Gym in Vienna. Yoga helped a lot, all pains are gone, and I am flexible and on track as I have never been before. 😎

2017-12-10 NARROW ALLEY IN MONTEROSSO

Monterosso is one of the five villages of Cinque Terre. The Cinque Terre walk from Corniglia to Monterosso lasts about 2 hours on stony and dusty sidewalks with great views of the sea. After arrival in Monterosso, we looked for a cold Aqua Minerale with lemon. Although I was very thirsty, I couldn’t resist taking photos of the Italian alleys and streets. 🙂

2017-12-09 SINKING SUN IN ABU DHABI

This photo was shot outside the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque in Abu Dhabi. Often the sinking sun is a photographer’s best friend. I had a right timing with the visit. We arrived between blue hour and evening. My wife Karin and my daughter had to put on a scarf and a veil, which they got at the entrance. Then we were free to explore and to marvel.

2017-12-08 PAZNAUN VALLEY IN TYROL

With my permission for drones, I am allowed to fly in nature. The rule is the area must be uninhabited, thinly populated with only shacks and barns, some hikers around. So you have a large field for drone flying in the Alps of Tyrol. In the cold winter months, the battery lasts only for 15 minutes, half the time of the warmer months. Better to have two pieces with you.

2017-12-07 GREETING THE STARS

This picture reminds me of an album cover of a 70’s rock band. Intense colors and light effects. I did that “self-portrait” with the self-timer of my Sony A7S. During those night shots, I had to be careful, because 10 meters in the front of me, there was a slope of 100 meters (330 ft). 😮

KICKSTARTER PROJECT – COOL TRIPOD

My first try at Kickstarter, I found that attractive “The Most Portable Tripod ever created for Phone/DSLR/GoPro.”
Here the link: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/vixaritripod/the-most-portable-tripod-ever-created-for-phone-ds.

Let’s wait how this evolves and if it was a valuable investment.

2017-12-06 SINGAPORE ART

Suddenly the double-decker bus brought my wife and me into a busy shopping street. After 2 hours of bus ride, we decided to get out and walk around. I spied a Sony store where I could have a look at all the new cameras and camcorders. Outside I saw that metal artwork which reminded me of the Medusa (although there were no snakes). 🙂

2017-12-05 COLOSSEUM OF THE GLADIATORS

Walking around on the stages and paths of the Colosseum in Rome brought my thoughts to the movie Gladiator from Ridley Scott. The audio guide talked about the history of the fighting of gladiators and wild animals. The thousands of years old walls and stairs gave your fantasy a feel for the drama of those times. One of the most imposing buildings I have ever seen. 😎 I tried the pano mode of my Sony camera which leads to beautiful results if you can handle this feature. 🙂

2017-12-04 CHRISTMAS MARKETS ARE OPEN

Black Friday and Cyber Monday are over; now it’s time for the Christmas markets. Vienna has an old tradition; there are a dozen markets across the city. Locations are the Karlsplatz, the Rathausplatz, the Maria-Theresien Platz and so on. For eating you get baked potatoes, chestnuts and candyfloss. If you want to decorate your home, you find candles, Christmas tree decorations, and glassware. For this photo, I placed my tripod on the staircase to the Museum of Natural History. There I had enough room and overview for shooting.

2017-12-03 FIELDS AND FARMER

The rural parts of Lower Austria consist of agriculture, woods, and smooth hills. The fields are cultivated mainly with corn, wheat, and sugar beet. It’s interesting to watch the precisely drawing of the demarcation lines between the scopes.

2017-12-02 ILLUMINATED BRIDGE IN DUBAI

It was a nightmare driving around and searching for the correct highway exit to get to the Dubai Canal. We didn’t stop trying, and at the end, we got rewarded with a boardwalk, a park area, and a futuristic bridge. Particularly in the night, you get a beautiful view of the skyline. Even in the evening, it was sweltering, and I was sweating after I reached the bridge.
