vienna calling

Yeah another week, .. university finished for that one (had a boring lecture today) .. now waiting for weekend. Why? .. cause I'm excited about my trip to Vienna on sunday. Plans said we will go on saturday and just for some hours, .. but we changed and now it's a sunday to monday trip. Markus (http://geek7.deviantart.com) will be with me and we gonna meet a lot of friends we first met in August last year, when staying one week in Vienna and had a devmeet there.

So now it's just for two days, but looks like sunday will be funday :D .. meeting with our good friend Werner (http://beachdair.deviantart.com), also our host for that days, .. and hopefully some deviants like Sebastian and Johannes (you have links to their blogs on my blogroll). Would be nice to meet Severin again, but not so sure if he gonna have time. Sunday will be photo day, .. shooting street most of the time, .. goin to have a drink with friends .. and much more. ;)

Monday then we will head to Mariahilferstrasse and Westbahnstrasse to have an awesome shopping tour :D .. ok we just need loads of film (APX 100, Tri-X 400, Plus-X 125 .. maybe some APX 400 too) and Markus wants some chemicals and paper for his darkroom. I will look for some new analogue cam .. as far as I won't get one before (just got an info on a used Olympus OM-1 I could get until our departure .. so I would have it ready for weekend .. and cheaper than all possible offers in Vienna I think).

So after all, here are some picture from our last street tour through the city center of Klagenfurt .. photos I missed last time (ok I didn't want to post them at once).

finally that fits the title .. calling

on the streets

Went to the city on wednesday to have some photo action on the streets. In the morning I walked alone, had most of my equipment with me and didn't make a really good job on myself .. just wondering about my manner.

So later, in the afternoon, called Markus (geek7 from deviantart) and he came to my place, wanted to give me his AE-1 with 50/1.8, but he missed to change the batteries .. so no good for me .. but maybe it was the best thing so, as I took his Sigma 30mm f1.4, removed the battery grip from my EOS 350D and so we walked .. me with that combination and he with his Voigtländer Bessa.

Here are some shots from that afternoon ...

oh my f****** goodness (express yourself)

she had this "look" in her face, .. hm

looks like they had a party there at the crossing

on the phone, .. nothing more

walking on stripes .. or maybe "striped on stripes" .. hm

someone said " looks like *MILF* "
and I even didn't knew what he meant by this, now I do

So you see, we had a long walk trough the city center .. about 4 hours from north to south, from east to west, ... - was quite fun and maybe one of my best street shooting trips so far ;) .. but anyway it makes no sense always goin on tour with the EOS, .. and I won't borrow the AE-1 or AV-1 from Markus again .. I want my own one now :) .. so next weekend (21st) we'll have a short one-day-visit in Vienna and do a lot of photo stuff shopping .. therefore I will look for an Olympus OM-2, hope to find one.

So for the moment, have a relaxed weekend, .. I will - even there is some university work waiting for me (one paper and an article to write).

bla bla

just testing my new blog .. welcome stranger if you read that :)
