Nice to be in Osijek again Last year (yikes!), Snježana invited us to her wedding with Bruno in Vinkovci on 28th of September. That meant, of course, to go to Osijek first, and then further. I was shocked to find out, that the train that I used to take several times before was permanently cancelled… [---]

Der fliegende Baron Flying Baron One of the nice things about the frequent print exercise is that it servers as an opportunity to print what we might call record shots (I think Mike Johnston coined the term, and it suits better then “social snap”). When my friend Johannes still lived in the 16th district in [---]

Having a great time at the Music Gallery Club UPDATE 12.04.2013: freshly cut video added:   DISCLAIMER: In this post there are far more photos included than I would normally allow for. This is because I want to give the people who have been there a nice coverage and memories, and not follow some artistic agenda. It’s almost [---]

Altes Silber neu poliert Schnee von gestern, das sind die Silberkörner der Negative, die seit fast zwei Jahren in einer Mappe hinter meinem Schreibtisch auf das Licht der Gegenwart warten. Sie zeigen Menschen und Geschichten, die jene wunderbare Zeit, die ich damals in Kroatien verbracht habe, erst so wunderbar gemacht haben. Nicht alle von ihnen [---]

A musical Excursion Recently I was listening to Buddha Bar Volume what-the-heck-I-don’t-know-nor-care and the tune of one song struck me as being very familiar. I recognized immediately that it was used a long time ago in the tv ad of an Austrian tire manufacturer. But no way did I know the name of the original, [---]

Part I of a looong Music Weekend DISCLAIMER: In this post there are far more photos included than I would normally allow for. This is because I want to give the people who have been there a nice coverage and memories, and not follow some artistic agenda. So this was last Thursday in Café Schmid Hansl, [---]

Cafe II Myself in a window – through a window, with Monika, coffee and tee, outside Café Stein (for those who know it). Speaking of windows, and shooting cameras with window-finders (if you’re asking yourself “wft is a window-finder?”, don’t worry, an explanation is coming within the next few years, or google if you don’t mind [---]

Diese Seite Here is one of my photos that always jumped at me (albeit gently) when browsing the archives, but of which I never could satisfactory explain why I like it. Remembering that the print exercise is about printing at all, such a photo is perfectly suited. The wish to see it on paper demands some [---]

Am Schafberg This photo should not exist at all. Because someone said that only idiots shoot straight into the sun. And what about ugly side effects like lens flare, chromatic aberrations and reduced contrast? As ridiculous as all these reservations might be, and as easy the last photo was to print, as – no, not [---]

Park I After the Vodoo Lounge we need some fresh air, which we find en masse in Pötzleinsdorfer Park. One year after the making of last entry’s photo, I carried around a Minolta Himatic 7 or so. As mentioned I sold the Yashica GSN due to a stiff focus ring, but I loved the lens [---]
