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.

The refreshing and shade-giving green with the sun shining through the branches. Always a pleasure for me to walk through the Japanese garden. The selection and placement of the plants result in a harmonious whole.

2020-05-20 THE CARNIVAL
I expected hundreds of showmen to walk around the streets in full makeup in my imagination about the Venice Carnival. In reality, I could hardly find people who matched my meaning. I was already satisfied with my photos of the opening of the carnival. Then I could see this couple in full splendor the day after. I did not miss this opportunity and was able to come up also with classic photos.

On some Sundays, I am catching the hustle and bustle in the parks and on the streets. The castle garden is a park landscape decorated with lawn, bushes and rose hedges that invite you to stroll and cycle.

2020-05-17 LIBRARY IN VENICE
I cannot remember in which library I was, but I can remember that I was on a walking tour which lasted for hours. And I came home with thousands of photos. I am looking forward to revisiting Venice; the borders should open soon. For me, it’s only a five-hour drive with the car from Vienna.

2020-05-16 CHOLLA CACTUS GARDEN
One of my destinations in Joshua Tree National Park was the Cholla Cactus garden. The cacti look soft and fluffy. But that is deceptive; you shouldn’t touch them; otherwise, you will be blessed with dozens of small spikes in your skin.

Relaxing on the lawn, parking the bike, one of the many things I liked in Amsterdam. Visited a museum beforehand, then head for a Heineken beer. And all this is pleasant by bike.

2020-05-14 SUNSET AT THE WÖRTHER SEE
The lake I love most is the Wörther See in Austria. Surrounded by green mountains with crystal clear water it’s a joy to jump into and swim. As you can see, also the sunsets are wonderful. Therefore in the evening, it’s time for a photography session.

2020-05-12 THE NARROW STREETS IN LONDON
From some side streets, you would not expect a cyclist to shoot out suddenly. This is what happened during my last stay in London in February. With the camera at the ready, I was able to capture the scene well.
