An afternoon in Vienna

Last Monday on the way from A to B I passed through Vienna and had an afternoon walk, a Topfel Strudel mit Vanilla Sauce and an espresso.

Here are several pictures from my walk. I think the interplay between modern and old is always interesting and it is not the first time I take a picture with electricity cables and churches.

Crosses

Saint Stephen cathedral is beautiful but I have seen it so many times that it has lost its novelty. From this perspective both cathedral and tree are shooting into the sky.
Into the sky


What drew drew me to this composition is the difference of the direction each object is pointing to. One hesitates between the heavenly pointing church spire and the practical left turn.
Which is the right way?

I decided to keep company to this guy for a minute. We both saw it was time to go for a coffee and a strudel.
