ABL Finale 2011
Gestern war's soweit. Attnangs Baseballstolz, die Athletics, mussten drei Spiele in Folge gewinnen um den 0:2 Rückstand in der Best-of-5 Serie gegen die Vienna Metrostars auszumerzen. Soviel voraus: Es hat nicht funktioniert, die Metrostars gewinnen die 2011er Meisterschaft mit einem Endstand von 3:1 nach zwei extremst spannenden Spielen im Athletics Ballpark. Macht nix, im nächsten Jahr geht der Titel wieder nach Attnang!

Low-Key Selbstporträts
Quick news for all the English-speaking followers out there: WET-photo will be continued in my native language: German :-)
I am changing to German because after more than one year of blogging, statistics show that only 10 % of my audience are in fact from English-speaking countries like USA, Canada, Great Britain and India (you guys rock! How did you discover this blog???). 60 % of the German-speaking visitors come from Germany, 30 % from Austria (that ratio surprised me a bit :-D ) and 10 % from Switzerland.
Don't panic, photos mostly don't need words and I will continue to write most of my posts on DeviantArt, flickr, 500px, etc. in English ;-)

Nearly forgot ...
... to post this image:
About inner struggles, duality of minds, bipolar disorder and all that other funny brainfucking stuff:
Shooting this one was fun & to a certain degree surprisingly difficult. Who could have known ...
I'm currently thinking about redoing this shot because I don't like that my "screaming chin" is that close to the edge. More space would have been better.
Oh yes, by the way: tell your friends, stay tuned, etc.

Back with a bang (600mm f/4 & 14mm f/3.5)
Good photo god, what an incredible odyssey!
As you might remember: first my brand new D7000 + gimmicks get stolen. I had a hard time coping with this fact. Then I bought a new D7000, a new 50mm f/1.4 (this time a sweet AF-S Nikkor), a new battery grip and a new flash (SB-700 instead of SB-900). Then, the new D7000 decides after a short working phase to take some days off because the flash stopped working. Off to Nikon Service Point Vienna and another 2 ½ weeks without camera - FINE!
Now FINALLY everything is back in my hands, everything is working and everything is fine. So here's a quick recap of the last few weeks:

The last in a while
Until I can replace my stolen gear I can't submit/take any new photos due to the lack of acceptable alternatives. There is just my mobile phone camera or my mother's pink point & shoot. Luckily, there are still two photos I recently took and really want to show.
It's my maternal grandfather!
Stay tuned!

A lesson learned the hard way ...
... but a lesson truly learned! If you're one of my "real life friends" then you might already know. If you're one of the three people reading my blog then I will tell you now:
Never ever in a million years fall asleep on a train with your camera bag on the luggage rack above your head! If you do so, chances are extremely high that you will end up being my companion in misfortune: Your stuff gets stolen. So instead of posting some photos, I thought I might share some thoughts on photography + public transport travel (from and to assignments, etc.) today.

Dead, hollow, abandoned (Linz, Pt. I)
Due to recent real estate investments of my employer I had the opportunity to shoot at a very interesting location: The empty, abandoned offices and production halls of Quelle (German mail order company, became bankrupt some time ago).
Actually, it's not that abandoned, there are plenty of construction workers ripping out the walls and copper cables to renovate the buildings.
Nevertheless, the feelings remain the same: Loneliness, silence and the devastating effects of stupid financial decisions.
There are some great places to shoot. E.g. the vast tunnel system that makes you feel like you're in some secret military bunkers.
The dirty, empty offices where a lonely ceiling fan is still spinning.
The shallow maintenance corridors between the walls that are covered in dust and spider webs.
Just take a look at the photos to see what I'm talking about!
And yes, that IS a shopping cart in an office! And no, I don't know why it's there! :D
