  The Gingerbread House

  When the moon is bright...
  by Keiran Lusk

  A most incredible church at Sternberg (near Velden in Austria). Perched precariously on top of the mountain, this church enjoys incredible views over the valley and lakes below. Also from the same beautiful church: Mozart and the euphoria of singing, singing, singing… When I embarked upon my journey at the beginning of this year, I made a list of things that I wished to explore or enjoy… in my quest to overcome my terrible afflictions with depression, anxiety, insecurity, guilt and anger. It was an ambitious list, for a man in my state of mind at the time: In my first few weeks, I managed to successfully tick off just about everything on my list… except for the ‘choir bit’. So, this week… I finally joined a choir. And not just your average backyard choir… but an incredibly talented bunch of people who call themselves the Gold Coast City Choir. I have thrown myself in at the deep end and committed to joining the group, as they prepare for their busy Easter performance schedule. Amongst the song list for their Easter recital is the hauntingly rich and intoxicatingly powerful “Requiem Mass” by Mozart (one of my newly discovered favourites is Lacrymosa). Over the past few days, I have completely immersed myself in the world of Mozart. It has been twenty years since I read sheet music, I have never before sang in a choir and had never listened to ‘Requiem Mass’ until this week. But goodness, it just feels so very right. Mozart is now playing in my world… every waking hour (I even wrap my MP3 Player in plastic bags to listen to Requiem Mass whilst kayaking…. oh bliss….). It is such a dream to be singing this beautiful music. / All spruced up and heading off to my very first choir session… Some photos from the Choir’s website ... So. With my mind filled with all things Mozart and Requiem Mass, this image just seemed to flow out of my mind… a church in Austria (the birthplace of Mozart) under full moon on a rather haunting night: [Creative Effects: Contrast/brightness/shadow adjustments, Colour Removal, Blue Photo Filter, Three Omni Spotlights with Photoshop]

  looking 360
  by Stefan Trenker

  this is a shot from my stay in Carinthia some weeks ago. It’s a 10shot panorama taken from the Pyramidenkogel, overlooking the Woerthersee and giving you a pretty good oversight of Carinthia as a whole. the pano is made up of two individual pano shots which were not supposed to be stitched made up as one panorama. / however, when i was screening through the shots from my visit to Pyramidenkogel, I saw that the shots of the two individual panos might add up, and so I gave it a try. of course it’s not perfectr, as you can see the stitch lines were the two individual images merge, but i like the 360° view you get with this pano…
