if I want, I can find the sky

Civilisation.

Iron and concrete.

Stare hard through its elements in order to - still - find nature.

I know: my joy is not everybody's joy. What I like is hated by some others. But we have to stick to what we enjoy and like. And help where we can. And definitely stay true to ourselves.

the freedom of New Orleans (6) - of rainbows and colours

I was walking in the frozen streets of Bucharest yesterday, thinking that somehow those steps are familiar to me, although somehow foreign now. Weird double realities, weird double standards. I carry with me everywhere my Viennese habits and I am so surprised when I find out they are unknown here...
But enough with this cold, let's go back to walking in the streets of New Orleans and enjoy some warmth and some colours...

unknown Romania (1). the master of the fire.

A cold weather, colder than anyone expected. Alone the sight of the fire brings a warm feeling deep down into my bones, and this in spite of the fact that I was so looking forward for (some) snow. With -20 Celsius degrees frozen in the outside thermometer, a cup of hot tea and a woolen blanket seem to be pure luxury.

the freedom of New Orleans (5) - freedom of speech

Sometimes, the freedom of speech is a different thing from what we would generally believe. Freedom of speech is when you feel free to talk with somebody that might not exactly speak you language. Say, a horse. But there are so many ways of speaking. Suprisingly, many of them do not involve words.

the freedom of New Orleans (4)

Smile, whoever you are. Freedom means to follow your heart, your instincts, your true self.

Enjoy freedom and fight that it will last forever.
This is my World on this Tuesday.

I own the light [the freedom of New Orleans (3)]

I own the street, and I own the light, too. Each step I take brings me further into my future, as I am young and proud and beautiful. You might not see me, but I see the good in the world. There is no harm here, where I stand. You can ignore me, but I walk with the sun.

the freedom of New Orleans (2)

April 2011. New Orleans. Mardi Gras. And all the other words are useless. How can I express the beauty of this carnival? How can I say how much I loved both New Orleans and Baton Rouge? I have thousands of photos that are worth to be shown to the world. It's time to publish them, I guess. So this one is for Life in pictures. A glimpse of the colourful life of the Mardi Gras Krewes.

the freedom of New Orleans (1)

New Orleans, one Mardi Gras. For B&W weekend.

NO ACTA!

I saw this in Hamburg last year. When I abandoned this blog, I had another one, for a short time, on aminus3. This photo was posted there. Now this photo makes another sense to me: people, sign the petition against ACTA. None of us is illegal just by sharing information! Sharing information is a fundamental human right!

it's all just beauty on the wall

beyond the glam of this city

 

beyond the glam of the city 

there is yet another life

not so shiny

sometimes quite dusty

bourgeois, not royal

but oh, so calm, and homey - in the weirdest way.

this image - could be everywhere

together

Wordless Wednesday

one day, the bicycles were waiting

Patient, unlike many of us.
The world around moves, some things stay thou the same.
Even in a city like Vienna, always on the run, patience is a virtue.

Our World on Tuesday.

into the weekend

Sky watch.

open way

I took hundreds of pictures of this wooden path, and I am still amazed how each time it looks different. Could be the light, could be thouse clouds in the sky...
My facebook page fo Lake Neusiedler in Austria is HERE.

words, in an evening

Take some time out and go to a bar
Listen to some music
Say a few words
Take a sip from that tall glass
Maybe eat a bite or two
Share your stories
And get some others in return
Words are never wasted in vain.

houses of New Orleans (3)

houses of New Orleans (2) - otra tranquilidad

And now would be the time for you to imagine a hot summer day, with all its tranquility and lack of sounds (others than birds humming), with all its strong light and soothing shadows. Now would be the time that you lean back, relax and imagine a porch and a chaise longue, a fruity cocktail included. Now would be the time that you take the luxury of being lazy in the middle of the week. After all, hey, tomorrow IS Friday! 

houses of New Orleans (1)

Big. Small. Coloured or monochrome. Decorated or keeping it serious. The houses of New Orleans won't let you pass by and ignore them. They will pull your sleeve, grab on you camera and smile for the photo.

are you ready?

Mardi Gras is over, but the echoes of its marches, parades, fun, good food and loud music still linger in my ears. The three bags of beads that we carried home are a sparkling proof that the whole thing was not a dream :).
