2021-02-18 COFFEE TO GO IS ALWAYS AN OPTION
There are currently only those bakeries that are open in Vienna and offer snacks and coffee to take away. Consumption is only possible in front of the restaurant, a hot coffee in the cold season is always welcome.

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.

2021-02-10 WALKING IN THE PARK
The cold winter air, green lawn and green trees, cold and oncoming evening – the lights of the park lights came on, all ingredients for an optimal park photo. I saw all of this in the Volksgarten in Vienna.

2021-02-05 BLACK AND WHITE IMPRESSIONS
Taking the heavy Sony Zeiss 135 1.8 ZA lens on the photo walk paid off. A classical lens that shows no weakness on the Sony A7R IV.

2021-01-26 HAVING A GOOD TIME
Running, jogging, and cycling – having a good time on Sunday afternoon. I did my workout on the cardio bike in the living room before noon to be free for photography in the afternoon. My wife and my daughter prefer running in the fresh air. We went to the Prater Hauptallee, a 5 kilometer long and broad street where cars are forbidden, and free exercise is common there.

2021-01-20 WALKING IN THE PARK IN VIENNA
The Sony A7R IV, the LA-EA5 adapter, and the Sony Zeiss ZA 135 1.8mm A-mount lens were great combinations for pictures this afternoon. Often I leave this lens at home because of the wait. I was glad that I had it with me—a completely new experience to shoot streets and parks with a tele lens. I usually take between 28mm and 50mm. To change lenses and get new frames is a rewarding photo tour. This park is named the Volksgarten.

2021-01-17 PARK AT THE SCHÖNBRUNN PALACE
My daughter wanted to do her running training in Schönbrunn. I had already done my cardio workout, took the opportunity for a photo tour, and accompanied her. The day was rather gloomy and dull, so I decided to go for black and white photography.

2021-01-11 RUNNER IN THE PARK
A camera should not be missing when taking a walk with friends in the park. In the beginning, I thought that there were no motives. But then I was able to take this high-contrast photo of the jogger in the wintry avenue of trees. It was also a good test for the new LA-EA5 adapter to try out my Sony Zeiss ZA 135mm 1.8 on the Sony A7R IV. The new focus options are fantastic.
