The unique Library and Learning Center of the Vienna University of Economics is one of the most significant examples of modern architecture in Austria's capital ๐ It was designed by star architect Zaha Hadid, who has unfortunately passed away in 2016. While I usually like to use portrait focal lengths for Lensball shots, I chose 16mm wide angle here to be able to show a bit more of the huge building in the background as well๐ฎ๐ธ #lensball #photography

๐งก๐๐ค The Austrian city of Krems is actually well known for its beautiful old town and I didn't expect any remarkable modern architecture there, but this unique building ("State Gallery Lower Austria") dragged my attention right from the start. I waited for some nice warm light and set the exposure time to half a second to capture the movement of a passing car. Really love this picture. Hope you like it too ๐ #photography #austria
Another Lensball shot from my trip to Albania. I found this monument right outside the National Stadion in Tirana and immediately thought that it would be a nice spot for crystal ball photography ๐ฎ Was I right? Just decide for yourselves ๐ #lensball #photography
Hey guys! I showed you a lot of my best photos here on noise.cash already, but as I'm also travel blogger, I decided to share some new posts on my blog with you here from time to time as well. Today I would like to start with my article about one of the currently largest urban development projects in Europe, which is even located in my home country, Austria. I'm talking about "Seestadt Aspern" ๐๏ธ๐ฆ๐น You can find my blog post about this unique place here, if you areโฆ
๐ฅ๐ธ๐ค Standing directly in front of the huge DC Tower in Vienna is truly a breathtaking experience ๐ฏ For this composing I tried to make the building look kinda threatening and even more futuristic ๐ Would you be scared standing in front of this giant with those dark clouds in the background? ๐

Hi friends ๐โโ๏ธ Recently I created a blog post about one of my favorite places that I visited last year. I'm talking about the Albanian costal city of Saranda, which is an ideal destination for a summer holiday or even a longer stay ๐ You can find the article here, if you're interested: https://hive.blog/hive-163772/@travelshots/saranda-a-hidden-gem-destination-for-travelers-and-digital-nomads-en-de
๐๏ธ๐ฎโช The Albanian capital Tirana does not have an idyllic old town with winding streets and historical buildings to offer, but it impresses much more with a lot of interesting modern architecture. One example is this Orthodox church with its unusual shape and golden entrance door. Fortunately, I had my Lensball with me, which helped with its wide-angle effect to get the huge cathedral on the photo. #lensball #photography
Hey guys! Today I would like to tell you about one of the probably most beautiful beaches in Europe. For me personally, it's one of the most beautiful ones, I've ever visited ๐คฉ It's located in a small Albanian village called Ksamill. If you wanna know more about this place and see some further pictures, you can find my blog post about Ksamill here: https://hive.blog/hive-163772/@travelshots/ksamil-albania-s-barely-known-tropical-paradise-en-de
I took this photo on a warm summer evening in Minsk. The Belarusian capital is one of my favorite cities in Eastern Europe. I really liked the combination of the deep blue sky during blue hour and the reflection in the river ๐ #photography
The bell tower of St.Annaโs church is surely one of the most popular photo spots in Warsaw. I was really happy to have a 16mm wide angle lens at this view point to be able to capture the setting sun and castle square on one and the same picture ๐๐ #photography #warsaw
Hi everyone! Today I'd like to show you the third and final part of my travel report about Albania. This time it's about the capital, Tirana.

A canal in Gdansk captured through a crystal ball, but what I like most about this photo is the soft background bokeh that makes it look a bit like a painting ๐ฎ๐๐จ #lensball #photography

The station "Szent Gellรฉrt tรฉr" of the metro line M4 in Budapest is often called one of the most beautiful ones in the whole world. The artist Tamรกs Komorรณczky was responsible for the design of the station and transformed it into a huge mosaic artwork. About 2.8 million small mosaic tiles form a wave-like pattern on the ceiling and the columns, which gives you the impression of standing in a gigantic wave ๐๐๐ฎ #lensball #photography
๐ค๐งก๐ค On the right side of the picture you can see the Emirates Towers and on the left side in the background even Burj Khalifa - the tallest building in the world ๐ For this shot I chose a kind of flat low contrast look without any blacks. It's a bit hazy in Dubai almost all the time, so I think it fits quite well for this city. Nevertheless, I wanted to make the light trials really stand out in order to make the image appear more interesting and dynamic. #photography #dubai
๐๏ธ Hola from Mexico City! My first trip this year takes me to the Mexican capital and I was already on photo tour with my Lensball yesterday evening. "Paseo de la Reforma" is one of the most famous streets of the city. In the middle of the picture you can see the monument "El รngel de la Independencia", which reminds me a bit of the Victory Column in Berlin.

Hello everyone! Two days ago I visited the skydeck of the Torre Latinoamericana in Mexico City. This time I tried to give my shots a kind of minimalistic approach and a dark, moody look ๐ค I also used my phone to enable me to create a composing later in post-processing. How do you like this style? What do you prefer - the original shot or the phone composing? ๐ธ

The 144m high Torre Manacar was already not one of the tallest skyscrapers in Mexico City when it was opened in 2017. Nevertheless, it impresses with its unique shape, which definitely makes it an eye-catcher in the cityscape of the Mexican capital. In this shot, I tried to capture the evening atmosphere and the traffic around the building by taking a long exposure ๐ #photography #mexicocity
