On the Morning of Christmas Eve
Christmastime in Vienna


In the early morning light,
reflections on the glass façade
of the Haas Haus
Stephansplatz

Last minute shoppers
in front of Café Aida
Stock-im-Eisen-Platz

Christmas tree -
- gaudily decorated -
on the stage set of a charity fundraiser
in front of St. Stephen's cathedral
Stephansplatz

Passersby
Stephansplatz

Snow globes
in front of a flower shop
next to the cathedral -
if you look closely, you can see
the steeple reflected in the glass dome
