Between districts 2 and 22 The "U2" bridge - always designed to carry the U2 subway across the Danube, it started life as a replacement bridge for vehicles while the nearby Prater Bridge was being widened.

What a difference a day makes 2013-02-02 For two days we had spring temperatures, the snow melted, and the sun appeared (disappeared again yesterday). At any rate, this is a shot of Vienna without fog (to compare with the previous daily shot http://www.jerrybarton.eu/gallery/12809003_GAzkc#!i=2341491675&k=kGkwsJT). That's St. Stephan's Cathedral in the heart of Vienna, of course, with a view towards the south-west into the Vienna Woods and beyond. Update: This is a compressed telephoto shot, of course. The distance from St. Stephan's to the business/housing complex in back is about 8 km (5 miles), and to the first hills behind another 8 km or so. That last little grey 'bump' on the horizon is about 60km away. I was standing on an observation deck 150m up - and it was very cold and very very windy.

Still Winter 2013-01-29 Yes, Virginia, there is still a city behind the fog. Enough already! This is typical winter weather in Vienna - but usually less snow. For a change (and headaches), the next few days are forecast to be +10 or 12C (50F), then back to freezing again. Many thanks for the comments on yesterday's vineyard shot. I should try to get out of Vienna into the sunshine, but I have to take my wife to the doctor. C'est une vie, I guess.
