Peace Just a swan, seen on the "new Danube" flood control channel in Vienna.
Summer Storm Coming This shot is from a week ago, when we had mainly clouds. Now we have had some heavy summer storms - although they seemed to have skipped our garden. The water is the "new Danube" flood channel - usually a prime recreation area, now carrying a bit of high water.
Exercise in the park Isn't it nice to be a photographer and have the excuse not to join in the exercise ;) Here in the Stadtpark in downtown Vienna. Regarding the red hare from yesterday's shot: The 'wing' it is sitting on covers the entrance ramp to the Albertina Museum - one of the great graphics museums of the world. And at the moment, an exhibition of 100 of the best pieces in its collection includes Albrecht Dürer's famous drawing of a hare (1502) [also the 'praying hands]. That drawing is only shown about once a decade. http://www.albertina.at/jart/prj3/albertina/main.jart?rel=en&content-id=1202307119323&ausstellungen_id=1370243694698
