2021-04-15 STAIRS IN THE NIGHT
After my wife and I visited my son, we wanted to get some fresh air in the area. We went into the blind alley where the Strudlhofstiege lies. I’ve always wanted to photograph it at night. This time I was able to strike with my Sony A7R IV.

2021-03-24 BREATHING SOME FRESH AIR
I wondered whether the trees were set so densely or whether it was a natural growth. The Vienna Woods is a popular excursion destination in north-east Vienna with a large variety of trees.

2021-03-22 PALMENHAUS VIENNA
The name Palmenhaus (Palm House) comes from the exotic palms placed in the heated indoor halls. The construction of the glasshouse is full metal with glass windows and iron bridges and viaducts inside. For the photo, I used my Leica M10 as a DSLR. With the Leica R to M adapter and the Leica Vario Elmar 35-70 F4 lens, you have a telephoto glass on a Leica M. Though you cannot use the rangefinder because you have to use focus peaking.

2021-03-11 STREET IN VIENNA
The bridge combined with the weather brought me a more exciting framing than I initially thought. The buildings’ height comes into its own, and the car roofs’ reflections add to the atmosphere.

2021-03-09 THE OLD MUSIC STORE
On Sunday, after a long time, I unpacked my Nordic walking sticks and went on a longer tour with my wife Karin. We met a new bakery that had settled in a music shop. The lettering from the 60s has been retained and there are fresh pastries inside. I found it on the Währinger Straße, in the 18th district in Vienna and had my Leica M8 in the bag.

2021-02-14 WALKING TO THE WÜRSTELSTAND
The photo shows how I come from the Albertina sausage stand to eat the sausages with mustard and ketchup. It is not allowed to eat directly at the stand because of Covid. So I go to the nearby Volksgarten, find a concrete plinth and eat there.
