Stormy Weather

1 - Kaisermühlen foot bridge
leading over the New Danube
to the Danube river.
The wind was so strong, I was afraid I'd get blown down.
2 - Looking east from the footbridge,
New Danube with the Danube Island on the horizon
3 - Looking north, Austria Center with UNO-City
4 - On the Danube river banks
5 - Looking east on the Danube river
6 - Looking west, Reichsbrücke
Wienerwald with Kahlenberg
7 - Rickety board *
*) I'd like to point out,
the boat too proved to be very unstable
in the gale that was blowing from the river
.
Of course, it was streng verboten to trespass.

  2. Number 6 is my favourite, it's fantastic the way you have captured the stratus clouds in an interesting setting. I have always found it very difficult to make a stratus picture interesting.

    Would you mind if I downloaded it for my 'clouds' collection? I don't think I'll get a better one!

    I hesitated for a moment, before deciding which of the various definitions of chills you were experiencing (I for once still feel the chill I had to overcome to cross a narrow wooden board that was creaking in the wind, to get the picture of the fishing net). ;-)
    MAALIE:
    I only say "narrow wooden board". It was worth the fun, thank you. :-)
    BRITT-ARNHILD:
    Oh, that's not fair at all! I hope those flakes turn out to be fast melting flukes.

  6. Wonderful, wonderful photos. I could step into them at the precise moment your camera captured them.

  8. All photos make this a good survey. #1 is an interesting beginning and #4 with its red flowers add more interest.

    I caught blue skies and flowers with raindrops sparkling in the sunshine early this morning, pictures later in the day.

    Thank you all for your comments,
    I'll be back. :-)
