2020-05-23 NIGHTLY WAY HOME
While walking home from a festival, I got that view from the Millenium Tower in Vienna. It was a full moon, which made the picture more interesting. Since I had no tripod with me, I did a handheld shot in the night, which I had to balance accordingly.

2020-05-22 WALKING SELFIES
I was never a friend of selfies. I wouldn’t say I like the wide-angle faces on the photos. However, I prefer to shoot pictures of people doing selfies. In the later afternoon, when the sunlight falls on the streets, it is always a good time for street photography.

It’s like a Zen-experience walking through a Japanese garden—the typical plants combined with a little lake, a wooden bridge, and a Japanese tea house. I am lucky that my district Döbling, where I live in Vienna, has a Japanese garden which is open until 9 pm. The right time that you catch the blue hour for sure. The name of the garden is Setagayapark.

2020-05-08 PASSAGE IN THE FIRST DISTRICT
Since traveling is on hold, I take my pictures mostly in Vienna. It has hidden treasures for a photographer. Often I concentrate on the subtle motives compared to the spectacular sights; every tourist is photographing. One step back is sometimes more for photos.
