In the Swarovski Crystal World you have those paths between the exhibition rooms, with dim blue light and projections of diamonds on the floor. This contributes to this exhibition which is a synthesis of arts made from glass, light and multi media.
The eternal city is a photographer’s dream. From one street to the next, from bridge to bridge, nearly everywhere are photo motives. For staying fresh you get espressos at every corner, sometimes I also take a vanilla croissant… the Italian ones are the best 🙂
Some days ago I was driving with my car on a road which was embedded between fields as far as the eyes can reach. It was really cold, about -14 degrees C (about 7 degrees Fahrenheit). The earth was completely frozen, hard as a rock. And I thought that the sun had some effort to rise, because at about 8 am I got this picture with the rising sun 🙂
If New York ist the “city which never sleeps”, the same is true for Hong Kong. Streets are very crowded, full of life, full of impressions on every corner, a steady flow of people which never stops. A real metropolis … here one typical scene of the streets, shot with a wide angle lens.
Velden am Wörthersee is one of the most famous summer holiday destinations in Austria (though I visited in the winter). The Wörthersee lake is very clean, you could even drink the water. The architecture of this little town has some really nice buildings with turrets, gables, balconies and special roof tiles.
The Hip Hop Ball in Vienna is a very new genre, it was the second staging this year. The DJ was dressed in smoking with bow tie and he was playing in full throttle. The location was fashionable and dignified with big crystal chandeliers combined with loud hip hop music, a cool 😎 event 🙂
I was looking forward to take these real cool Mount Fuji photos, where you see the top of the mountain very clear, surrounded with a bit of snow and a bright blue sky. Unfortunately it happened that the mountain at the 5th station at about 2300 meters was completely foggy with heavy wind. It was no chance to see the peak. Nevertheless I took some photos at the observation platform. 🙂
Karlsplatz is a bigger area with tram stations, cafes, subway and a park. It’s in the heart of Vienna, very near to the Naschmarkt, first district and the Ringstrasse. Also the Third Man – tour starts here.
I never saw a country which is so heavily flat as the Netherlands. I was driving on a house boat on the river Eem and took photos left and right and this photo is representative for most of the landscape around the river. No wonder that this is the country of Gouda, Edam, Beemster … 🙂 with all that fresh grass and healthy cows. 🙂
Nice by night, a unique experience, walking through the streets in a mild summer’s night … But with crossing this street you should be a bit careful and look around, the tram is very calm when it comes along… 🙂
