Wiener Naschmarkt


An old picture rescued from my archive. Today, Kika left behind what was the start of a novel that I started to write a while ago. The story was partly set in Vienna. My mind works with images, so as soon as I started to read it... this one came to my mind.

I love food markets, and this must be one of my favorites.

Billy Joel's "Vienna" song also came to mind. As well as my "1st proper" camera, a Ricoh KR10M that I'd to trade-in to buy a Pentax Super A and a SMC 50mm f1.4. I was a student, living and working in London, and money was in short supply. I try not to be very romantic about those days... but now that I think about it... I really really really do miss my old camera.
