Walking around the most touristy parts of Vienna this summer, filled to the brim with all kinds of different people, I became interested in picking out the most intriguing and unique personalities, and seeing how they fit into the space I found them in.
The old lady, seemingly on a spotlit stage of some sort, was walking through the Michaelertor when I spotted her. The big entrance hall to the Spanische Hofreitschule has a ceiling with little openings, through which the sun shines during summer months. This creates illuminated areas in the otherwise dark hall, which, when people walk through them, makes them the main character of the scene for a couple of moments.
The same thing happened to the two businessmen (or mafiosi, who’s to say?), when they were walking across my viewfinder. Engrossed in conversation as they are, one is only left to wonder what they might have been talking about.
The balloon seller was walking up and down the Graben when I noticed him, without much success selling his balloons. None of the children seemed to be interested in his creations.
The construction workers were having a break, waiting for someone to do something so they could keep working on their construction.
