2017-02-15 NIGHT SKIING

Winter sports in the night get more and more attraction, nearly every ski resort has a lighted piste. Also curling, sledding and ice skating are popular in the late hours. That’s good for photographers, the pistes look pretty cool during the night with the light between the woods and the snow which gets colorful textures. This shot I got by accident, I went out of an apres-ski bar and spotted this mountain with the lighted pistes, since I was far away I took my Sony A6000 and Sony Zeiss FE 55 1.8 which became a 70mm lens with the APS-C camera, that was enough to get a good composition.

2017-02-14 LUCKY TECHNICIANS

Not many technicians can share such a great view from their workplace like here in the Smart City in Malta. The blue sea, mostly sunny weather, a lounge near the water pool, a nice environment to relax during the lunch break or go for an after work drink. 🙂

2017-02-13 STILL LIFE WITH TREES

This photo was shot at a cold and windy winter day in Styria, the Green Heart of Austria. The trees had no leaves, the sky was grey/white with no sun, the meadow in a kind of winter sleep … A good day for tanking fresh air…

2017-02-12 HONG KONG FROM ABOVE

I was very happy with my hotel room on the 27th floor. Normally I don’t like to shoot through window glass but here it was the only way to catch these views. Most notably there were no bad reflections on the glass therefore nobody is thinking about that it have been shot this way 🙂

2017-02-11 LIGHTED STREET IN VENICE

In Venice you are really lucky if you get a shot with no people on the street, especially if you do long-term exposures. This motive I tried three times… until it was on the SD-card 🙂 The scene reminds me a bit of a video game like “The Thieve” where you had to creep through such alleyways and hide behind each wall that you won’t be found by a warden.

2017-02-10 ICE SKATING IN FULL SWING

In Vienna in front of the city hall and the adjacent park you get two ice skating grounds which are connected via “ice streets” and offer a great area for the skaters. Best time is before noon because in the afternoon it’s very crowded and you have to practice braking and eluding more often 🙂

2017-02-09 FASCINATING MOSQUE

In this mosque I tried to catch the iron ring with the light bulbs, the beautiful carpet, the pillars with the incredible, colorful and detailed mosaics and the praying people. Before I entered a mosque the first time, I couldn’t imagine how fascinating this experience would be.

2017-02-08 THE BIG WEATHER FRONT

As this weather front came over to me, I knew that it was time to take the last photos and then pack the equipment because hard rain would follow soon. And the sun disappeared completely after few minutes and I felt the first drops …

2017-02-07 ROME PREPARES ITSELF FOR A NEW DAY

I had a meeting at AAMS (an authority) in Rome at 11 am. The flight started at 6 am 😐 from Vienna and I was in Rome at about 8 am. I used this time to explore how Rome prepares for a new day, the markets get open, the coffee bars get crowded, the suppliers bring their goods to the shops, children go to school, this all looks special in Italy. 🙂

2017-02-06 RED CARPET BETWEEN MARBLE PILLARS

Albertina Vienna, no tripod allowed … what to do, take the photo hand held with higher ISO (5000). I did noise reduction with Noiseless CK, you have to look, that the quality doesn’t get too bad. The Nikon Coolpix A is a really cool camera, high IQ in a compact size.
