"The way to Döbling" (Döblinger Steg) More architecture from Vienna. No points for guessing when it was built. Actually the metal was re-built after the second World War. It connects Vienna's 19th district (Döbling) with the 20th over the Danube Canal. P.S. Graffiti removed in pp. Addition: Two main thoroughfares are at water level below this bridge. I'm actually standing "on top" of the traffic.
The Ring Tower The "Ringturm" was Austria's first "skyscraper" constructed 1953-1955 at the end of the post-war occupation. It has 23 floors and a pole on the top that flashes different lights for different weather conditions. It is a plain 1950s concrete/steel/glass box, but for the last decade it has been wrapped in art every summer. This year's wrap is "Schleier der Agnes" (Agnes' Veil) by Arnolf Rainer.
Entrance to Vienna II This is another shot of the bridge at the beginning of the Danube Canal, designed by Otto Wagner. I posted an 'almost silhouette' about a week ago (http://www.jerrybarton.eu/Miscellaneous/DailyPicks/i-qN6H6cW). This shot has a fair amount of pp - some Orton, some Topaz Detail, a brighter sky, some change of colors. I wanted more 'illustration' rather than reality.
