yeah, it took me quite a while to figure that out…
i have a ton of pictures shot in portrait format – some of them even hanging in a3 format picture frames on my walls – but i never thought about it that i could put them online as wallpapers like the landscape ones as well for tablet pc and mobile phone users like the iphone, ipod touch or ipad.

these are the first two that might be suited as wallpapers.

this is the second piece of the non-entity set. dried up leafs, flowers and plants have their own unique beauty and i feel like i should keep exploring in this direction.
the picture was heavily edited in adobe lightroom to the the color-mood right.

in terms of photography the last weeks were rather dull. bad weather, no sunlight – not the best parameters for interesting photographs.
alas, today the sun came out and i took the opportunity to take a couple of new pictures.

here is one of todays shots:

“turn off the sun, pull the stars from the sky.
the more I give to you, the more I die.” – the perfect drug, nine inch nails

there isn’t a better fitting title for that. i set off with my camera in hand a few minutes after midnight and didn’t know where to go first. somewhere i always end up when i am bored is in zeiselmauer right at the danube. almost no light pollution and a wide open area makes this a great spot for night time photography. once i was there it felt creepy. there were noises of animals everywhere, mosquitos bit me in the face but it was absolutely right. shots two and three were taken there, with one exposure of about one minute each. all in all i was there for about an hour, then packed up again and felt like pushing the envelope, so i went to tulln into the aubad because of the lake/sky setting. the outcome is a little different to what i had in mind, but i am still happy with the final result. if the sky is that bright again tonight, i will be out again.

fitting music helps, so i popped in the “the perfect drug” remix i downloaded earlier from remix.nin.com . one of the best remixes i have ever heard…
