Fotoeins Friday: Wien Mariahilf, 2 of 4
In the Austrian capital city of Vienna, the city’s 6th district is also known as Mariahilf. The district is home to over 30-thousand residents which is about 2-percent of the city’s entire population (2022). I stayed in Mariahilf for four weeks in the late-spring of 2022.
In this frame, various elements of Vienna urbanity come together at Bundesländerplatz (Federal States Plaza). Partially pedestrianized Mariahilfer Strasse is full of people checking out shops, as well as other people. The recognizable “U” indicates an entrance to a U-Bahn underground metro station. The soft-cube “Würfel” shape is apparent in the tall U signage, as well as the familiar clocks appearing throughout the city. Finally, the city’s portable water dispensers make their appearance as temperatures rise in summer.
I made the photo above on 20 May 2022 with a Fujifilm X70 fixed-lens prime and these settings: 1/500-sec, f/16, ISO1000, and 18.5mm focal length (28mm full-frame equivalent). This post appears on Fotoeins Fotografie at fotoeins DOT com as https://wp.me/p1BIdT-rY9.
