Although I had intended to post a color version of yesterday’s photo I ended up liking the way today’s photo shaped up so here it is instead. This is the same base of the Athena statue in front of the Viennese parliament, two photos of which I had posted a few days back, albeit in color.

Viennese Ruins

Viennese Ruins
I had gone to an amusement park in Vienna which has (apparently) one of the oldest running ferris wheel in the world. There they had a small exhibition of sorts wherein various tableaux showed Vienna at different time periods in the past. This was Vienna after WWII if I remember correctly. I might post a color version of the same tomorrow.

Here is another one from the Viennese parliament. This is a part of the fountain that forms the base of a statue of Athena, the whole of which can be seen in yesterday’s photo. I’ll be posting a couple more photos of this fountain from different perspectives in the days ahead. All these photos were shot hand-held.

Another one from the archives. I didn’t post this before as I wasn’t sure about it. Obvious criticisms would be that the composition is too centric, the perspective isn’t right and perhaps I should have framed it a bit differently, including the whole body of the climber for example. But having said that I like the way it looks in monochrome and the contrast. So here it is. Feel free to voice your criticism through email.
