Benonie is nicely building up the tension for Vienna. Lovely thread!

Benonie · December 10th, 2012, 08:54 PM

Almost there! It's nice to start a trip with a highlight and ending with a highlight.

It is! It's a cozy city, not many real highlights, but with a great bohemian atmosphere. Lovely for some stressless days. And of course, the boose is cheap!

BTW, great picture framing and composition.

Picture 419 is an impressive demonstration of how young, vibrant and fashionable Vienna is. Even though the cyclist does not quite fit in. If not for her, that picture could be from any point in the last 50 years ...

openlyJane · December 21st, 2012, 11:26 PM

Very tanatalising!

Benonie · December 22nd, 2012, 11:49 AM

It sure is!

Well, this picture could be taken everywhere in Europe. So I think Vienna has some old fashioned but also some trendy aspects as well.

Awesome photos!

Well maybe its hard to find so many cables as in Vienna hanging around in the streets but you are probably right.

PS: I expect to see quite a few pictures of both aspects, old fashioned and trendy

pumpikatze · December 23rd, 2012, 07:19 PM

Nice pictures - please continue posting soon

Benonie · December 24th, 2012, 10:16 PM

Thank you. I will, but I'm on a flat in Stockholm now and the WIFI-connection is rather slow. Just finished our delecious X-mas diner. "God Jul!" (Merry Christmas!)

Well, I was only 2 days over there and I'm afraid the pics are mostly 'classic' ones...
