Dressed-up for Easter
Easter = Purple dress-up, also in Roman Catholic churces. This can give colourfull effects.
Reflections and true vision
Spontaneous effects. Reflections on the window but still good sight on the restaurant. I used a 12-24 wide angle lens at 17mm; ISO 100; F/10 and shutter timing 1/200.
Double sighted?
A test. Camera on a tripod; lens 1.4/50mm; F/16; shutter timing 28 sec ; 2*flash; ISO 100 and a running person. Little adjustments to make the picture a bit more clearer and voila. Will try to do this again. Its a lot of fun to get the timing right!
The Sound of their steps!
During a charity visit some years ago to a school for deaf / dumb children , some had even other limitations, a single photo taken resulted in a series of over 50 portraits of children present. All pictures taken where printed and later delivered to them. The theme of the charity activity, `The Sound of my Steps`, came from addressing how the children learned to overcome their primary limitations; deaf & dumb.
She knows she is beautiful!
This young Hamar lady knew exactly how to attract tourists to make them “financially” support her for her “modelling” act.
The Orange feeling!
Will we experience the same orange feelings during the upcoming European Soccer Championship as she did in 2010?
ACTA?
Yes, the backgrounds behind ACTA are assessed to be a threat for either side; supporter and/or opponent. But what dimensions of our lives are really affected?
Closely observe the couple overlooking the ACTA opponents. How they enjoyed their live is registered and carved in marble as an example for generations to come. Will there be an “Anonymous” future in marble to?
Strauss the Golden Man from Vienna
The gilded bronze monument of Johan Strauss II shines like James Bond’s “Goldfinger” in the Vienna City Park just after sunrise.
Copper Man Bratislava
Easily overlooked but he remains in place.
