4th Vienna Photo Marathon

8th September (unfortunately a rainy and cloudy day) was the fourth Vienna Photo Marathon instead. The aim of the world held Photo Marathon is to record from 10 bis 22 clock 24 pictures on given themes in the order given. 800 people attended, nearly 600 have the finish made it. I've just managed in time (the Marathon have so underestimated fairly) and was ranked 214th Unfortunately, the issues

were partly driven by marketing (sponsorship issues) and completely incoherent. Moreover, the overarching theme of all four previously held in Vienna Photo Marathon one unimaginative "love letter to Vienna". It would be better would the Vienna Photo Marathon - as in Berlin - by an independent association with artistic ambitions operated and not by the Vienna Economic Chamber. But it happens to be the way it is ...

Herbergsuche

Last Tuesday was a big demonstration in Vienna for an amendment to one of the most restrictive immigration laws Europe instead. This law was adopted under the old government of the nationalist Freedom Party in accordance with its coalition partner, the Christian People's Party. Not without even the Social Democrats have agreed to this inhuman law 2 years ago. To date, no one knows why. say "In the wool-dyed" Social Democrats that the law would have been "worse," they had with their "red" not mitgestimmt ... Well, I do not know (in the EU, only Cyprus, Latvia and even worse it was reported today in the laws as Ö1 Morning Journal).

The consequences of the inhuman laws were strangers to us at that time known to all. In Parliament, only the Greens voted against and agitate dankenswererweise up against it today. But there are always artists who anticipate the cruel and lucid the future, such as Egon Friedell, Jean Gebser et al.

Mercy-conservative family splitting

3 . October in Vienna in the morning a small demonstration (about 100 people) instead of a more humane asylum. The trial was initiated by the Greens, who are slowly re-profile. Occasion deportation case, the wave that leaves the Austrian People's Party interior minister spill over well integrated refugee families. Meanwhile, even protest ÖVP politicians against his own Minister of Interior. In Salzburg, the Austrian People's Party-based dedicated now financially responsible for the deportation of those exposed as reported in the Salzburger Nachrichten .

Current event case, the family Zogaj, whose 15-year-old daughter Arigona is submerged in the underground, and after her younger siblings were taken out of school and deported in a cloak-and-dagger operation to them completely foreign Kosovo (Plattersche variant of " family splitting "). Mind you, our neighbor from Switzerland pushes for security reasons no one in Kosovo. The Austrian Foreign Ministry warned in the style of an official travel warning (though these drastic Step still does not) strongly against travel to that region.

was held on Saturday in Frankenburg, Upper Austria, a demonstration for the return of the Zogaj family, which was attended by 500-1000 people.

Next Tuesday (October 9) by 18 clock place on Minoritenplatz held in Vienna a supported by asylum-in-distress demonstration of a human right of asylum. Hopefully get more people than in Frankenburg, so that the Home Secretary finally listen!

Moreover one should not forget another facet of the merciless Austrian Foreign Law: The family splitting in ÖVP-FPÖ manner (the two have concocted this is reminiscent of 1938 Act), which provides ruthless separation of bi-national marriages !

Blog Domino

Already a slightly longer time (in April) I was interviewed about my blog I noticed it but a little late ... (See the quote from Yoda's blog ). I respectfully ask your indulgence for my somewhat delayed reaction. In addition, I request such information for now is to work this "blog Domino. Do I need to do now what? So here are the answers:

my camera, I almost always there (if he has become quite large). So I almost always hold the possibility of things that interest me: these are mainly the arcane corners of the city, and - you will notice certain - political.

Most pictures were taken here with the rather compact Pentax * ist DS SLR (digital, 6 million pix APS-C sensor). Some earlier Recordings (such as the Aspanggründe ) go to the account of my earlier "Point & Shoot" (Canon S1 IS, 3.2 million pix). Since about March, the pictures with a Pentax K10D - nachwievor an APS-C sensor, but with 10 million pix what the noise behavior affects not necessarily positive, but has this device, some features, for which I with other manufacturers about twice that on the table would create. At present, the Sigma EX DG 24-70/f2, 8 lens in use.

When things are really problems of space, then the compact Pentax W20 is in the pocket (see the Excursus " Berlin"). We have increased our because it is waterproof and even * in * Sea, lake water usage (the K10D is "only" weather sealed holds, ie, from rain and snow).

comes to software currently Apple's Image Capture and download for Adobe Photoshop Elements 4 (Apple) for the post to use. For RAW I test around now and I tend to Light Zone.

Christian again makes everything that you read it. For me it is completely understandable, because the same thing I do. This time is towards Sir Loi and converts the legendary and sometimes not very popular to stick in another game, which is somewhat more flexibility and life in the Reich-thingy around: In a Domino Blog .

Since this game a little more initiative brings with it, because you can ask the questions yourself, there are consequently also more work. And I am now in God's name on me, but expected by Sir Loi, that he pursues his Domino and documented on his blog, where it goes. Thanks Gaelle, Christian!

Christian provocative questions are to me: Which came

circumstances novel to blog and when he becomes president of sbp?

I'll be good and sufficient responses. I came to blogging with a purpose which I can describe in one sentence: I will put my best page on the scene and thus be charged and taken into account. All other reasons which I could mention here, also draw their motivation from this intention. The second question can

Sir Loi rich I do not answer because I do not even know. At the moment, the office of præsis for me not an issue. In the sense of "never say never" I will not exclude it completely. But I do not seek the office.

Domino further push

And it is about the further impact of this Dominos is what I like to do. In terms of a larger network, I would like a domino tiles in Austria and one in Germany and to such a toast with us.

• I would like the Schaffnerlos Blog know how he comes to his impressive pictures of Vienna, and what camera he uses.
• From Sven I would like to know how many Legos he hoards at home and whether he ever actually assembled it all himself.
• And from my namesake novel I would like to hear why he blogs of all things on a Windows server, and whether the picture header of his blog was created on Mars.

Join For that I thank you now! I advise those three extra people not by email, to see what's good for the idea of Sir Loi ;-)
