Vienna

My son Maro is standing in front of the historic Gartenbau cinema, which always showed all blockbusters first. Now the cinema is getting on in years and is undergoing a general renovation. I’m looking forward to the reopening with the movies The Godfather part 1-3 in one day, 9 hours cinema in a row. 🙂

My second photo from the park between the Art Museum and Natural Museum in Vienna. It takes a lot of patience and skill to cut the shrubs into these shapes. It is a pleasure to look again and again and marvel at the geometry.

A park separates the art history and natural history museums in Vienna. There are meticulously cut bushes in round and conical shapes. The park is also famous for running.

The church “Kirche am Steinhof” dedicated to Saint Leopold was built between 1903 and 1907 by the 63-year-old architect Otto Wagner, with mosaics and stained glass by Koloman Moser, and sculptural angels by Othmar Schimkowitz. An impressive piece of art and architecture.

Last Sunday, I hiked through the Viennese vineyards with my wife, Karin. The wine taverns in the area get their wine from there. At the same time, you get a spacious view of the city with the grapevines in the foreground.

The Hotel Sacher in Vienna was also hit hard by the lockdown. The home of the Sachertorte(Sacher-cake) has been shut down in emergency mode. Tourism should start again in mid-May.

The girl styled according to a Japanese fashion style was fitting among the cherry trees. Since I was on the other side of the pond, I had to take pictures with full zoom. It’s good that I had my Tamron 28-75 FE with me. All shot in Setagaya park, the Japanese garden in Vienna.

My daughter did a more extensive run. I placed myself on the staircase at Schönbrunn Palace. The impressive panorama with the baroque garden and the Gloriette in the background was my central motif. The joggers in the run-up rounded off the picture.

On this Sunday afternoon excursion, we didn’t just stick to the sidewalks. We went cross-country through the forest, between the trees on leaves and over branches. Since my parents were also with us, we shied away from the steep descents, but it was still a little adventure in the forests of Vienna.

In the background of the picture, you can see the Kursalon Hübner. It’s a historic building which is mainly used for events. At night it is nicely lit and always good for a photo.
