Something green

on a grey and chilly Monday in Vienna ...

Market day

between rain showers today on Kutschkermarkt, Vienna.

Rather random

in red and blue. They signify summer to me and I want to stay in summer mood a little longer.

Next week I'm heading down to Málaga ... vacation time. Yay!!!

Leaves

We were in the woods this weekend. This is how it looked when looking up. See, some of the leaves are turning red now.

Weekend walks

I think we will look at some more trees this weekend.

The ones on the photo above is from our walk last weekend when we tried out the Hermannskogel trail.

There are 9 different trails to choose from and a very good thing is that you can access all of them with public transport.

Have a great weekend.

Wednesday ....

sun through the blinds and some randomness:

A little while ago I saw that Elisabelle had created a virtual pinboard. I really liked the idea, and now I have my own where I intend to pin all kinds of stuff that inspires me instead of using my fridge and doors etc ... and I won't have to pack it all away when we are moving away.

A little while ago I got a kind of unusual comment on one of my photos on flickr, a spoken critique. You can listen to the comment here. MYKRITEEK.com is a photoblog by an Australian guy who prefers to comment verbally rather than in writing on photos he likes.

Oh, and then I am watching/listening to this PREMIERE: New video with Vinnie Who. I especially like it because my daughter is dancing in it. She is the shortest of the girls :)

And the last one for now. If you like owls, check out this My Owlbarn.

Flowers, ice cream and

a ham sandwich, all in pink.

The flowers are gorgeous and I would have loved to pick some, the plum ice cream a bit too sweet to my taste (I'm not really an ice cream lover) and the ham with horseradish delicious.

This week ...

I went to the Albertina Museum to see the Alex Katz exhibition. Great stuff :)

Have a beautiful Friday.

Enjoying ...

a sunny August afternoon around Volksgarten, Vienna.

In the woods

The weather Sunday was perfect for a walk the woods surrounding Vienna, this time the Zugberg-Maurer Wald trail.

Friday

Trying to find some blue sky outside my backyard door in Vienna.

I think we will go to the movies this weekend. Inception is playing now.

Have a great weekend.

Lolland

Last weekend I visited my mother in law who lives on Denmark's forth largest island, Lolland, also known as "pancake island" because it is so flat.

I'm now back in Vienna with no travels planned until September :)

Rainbow colors

July was about rainbow colors in the flickr group la Vuelta al Mundo (Around the World). It was really hard to find something very colorful that I also wanted to photograph. Well, I managed to contribute with these four shots from the amusement park Prater and Museums Quartier in Vienna.

Jackie Rueda has published a beautiful collage and is making a list in her blog Casi en Serio with links to all the participants who have been doing rainbow photos this past month. So head over there if you are in the mood for a dose of beautiful strong colors :)
