The Empty Cafe - 02
Made by Andreas Resch
The Empty Cafe - 02 I live in a rather big city (at least compared to other cities in Austria) but haven't been shooting a lot of photos here in the past. As many of you know, I'm a nature photographer and not used to urban photography too much yet. Anyway, that's a thing I'd like to do more often as I want to challenge myself with new opportunities. Here is a place in the center of Graz where the chairs of a cafe are not set up yet. I loved the repeating pattern and the deserted mood of the scene.

Ayleen - 05 One thing I haven't tried very often so far it portrait shooting. Meanwhile I've bought some used flashes and some strobes. Yesterday I had a chance to try the things out as a friend of mine asked me to take some portrait pictures of his little daughter. Here are some of the results.

The Wait.
Made by Palentino
And while she waited the time advanced inexorably. The 16th century ‘Uhrturm’, or clock tower, is only one of two features which still exist from the destruction of the city’s defences following the Treaty of Vienna. Napoleon’s armies were paid 2,987 florins and 11 farthings to prevent the tower from being destroyed during the 1809 French invasion. Strangely the large hand is the hour hand; the minute hand being added much later. Dating from around 1560, the 28m high clock tower is the emblem of the city of Graz. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- El Uhrturm o torre del reloj del siglo XVI, es la única de las dos que existen desde la destrucción de las defensas de la ciudad que siguió al TRatado de Viena. Los ejercitos de Nalopeón pagaron 2.987 florines y 11 cuartos de penique para prevenir la destrucción de la torre durante la invasión francesa de 1809. Extrañamente la manilla grande es la manilla de las horas; la manilla de los minutos fue añadida posteriormente. Datando de alrededor de 1560, la torre del reloj de 28 metros de altura es el emblema de la ciudad de Graz. Romanov Oleg - 4.30 minutes to relaxations
Hackher-Löwe
Made by lennox_mcdough
The monument of Major Franz Xaver Hackher zu Hart at the Schlossberg of Graz, a soldier from the Imperial Army of Francis II (the last Holy Roman emperor), who defended (well tried to defend, eventually Graz was conquered) Graz against Napoleon Bonaparte. His clever strategy is still honored by Graz and became a Lieutenant Colonel (and afterwards Colonel). Napoleon was not so amused about his archievement and demanded that the castle of Graz had to be deconstructed, and since then there is no castle of Graz anymore. In 1909 Otto Jarl made a monument for Major Hackher, the Hackher-Lion - there was no picture, painting or any document which would have given a single hint of Majors Hackhers physical appearance. This lion was given as a Adolf Hitler metal donation during the war at 1941 away and was melt down 1943. Eventually in 1966 a interpretation of the original Hackher-Lion was reinstalled at the Schlossberg. camera: Rollei Rolleicord III - Model K3B lens: Schneider Xenar 75mm f/3.5 film: Ilford HP5 Plus 400ASA scan: CanoScan 8400 & SilverFast SE
Memorial
Made by lennox_mcdough
Passant, willst Du wissen, wo Du stehst? Willst Du wissen, Unschuldiger, wer Du bist? Wie Du dich krümmst, wenn Du der Macht verfällst, zu ihrem Spielball und Opfer wirst? Willst Du wissen, wie Du vor Schmerz schreist? Ich, Sigfried Uiberreither alias Friedrich Schönharting, ging hier vom 9. Juni 1938 bis 31. März 1940 meiner Arbeit nach. Ich brachte als Landeshauptmann der Steiermark und in der Ausübung meiner sonstigen Ämter viele Menschen um. Ich tat es nicht alleine. Ich tat es nicht selbst. Ich hatte Mitarbeiter. Wenn Du durch das Tor gehst, schäme Dich nicht nur für mich. Wer suchte nach mir? Wer stellte mich vor Gericht? Warum hast Du geschwiegen? Wer hat Dich zum Komplizen gemacht?
the right in one's own image... (no 1)
Made by Robert Fritz
...shoudn't be harmed here. Es geht mir hier hier um folgendes: schwarze Balken in den Medien sind eine Farce und keine Garantie für das Nicht-Wiedererkennen. Das Recht am eigenen Bild ist gerade in einer medialen Zeit wie dieser ein wichtiges Recht, da die Geschwindigkeit und die Intensität der Verbreitung von Medien rasend schnell geworden ist. Der einzige Vorteil der schnellen Medien ist folgender: Dinge werden sehr schnell wieder vergessen, sobald sich die Medienvertreter davon abwenden (gut zu sehen an fallen gelassenen Stars und Sternchen, oder auch an Politiker). Der Scham, die Verletzung der Intimsphäre der jeweiligen entblößten Person bleibt allerdings bestehen.

And the Lord spake, saying, First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin, then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who being naughty in my sight, shall snuff it. Amen.

Graz, Uhrturm
Made by rudi_valtiner
Zur Rosenblüte am Schlossberg in Graz zu sein ist natürlich ein Glücksfall. Nur blauer Himmel war einfach nicht zu bekommen. Dem Uhrturm, dem Grazer Wahrzeichen schlechthin, war das egal. To be on castle hill in styrias capital Graz just at blooming time of the rose is of course a cast of fortune. Only blue sky I couldn't got. But the clock tower, the most famous landmark of Graz, didn't care about the weather.
