On my last full day in Vienna (at least for this trip), I decided to take some photos of the city as the sun started to set.
This is a shot of the Rathaus (Vienna City Hall), just after they turned on the lights to illuminate the building. I did not have a tripod with me, so I braced on or against various objects in an effort to steady myself. I may post a few more night shots of Vienna later (if I am not too sleepy or wake up really early), but thought I’d share this one right now.
My trip to Vienna was brief, but enjoyable. I got a lot accomplished work-wise, but had enough free time to really enjoy some amazing spring weather.

Beautiful. And great improvisation without a tripod.
Thanks, Lyle. As you know well, sometimes it’s necessary to improvise to get the shot you want.
Wonderful shot, makes me want to get out and snap some shots like this here in Kazan. I will post when I do. So this shot was without a tripod? Been thinking about this a lot. I haven’t purchased one yet, but have been considering it. Is it better to catch the shots on the fly, or find the location and wait for the shot? Which do you prefer?
If I have a tripod, I sure will use it. In this case,I was leaning my camera against a post to steady it. I am a kind of wanderer and usually like to walk around and wait for something to happen
