DC (Donau City) Tower 1 is 220 metres high, which makes it the tallest skyscraper not only in Vienna but also in Austria. It was finished in 2014 and designed by a French architect Dominique Perrault.
Got this shot when it was pouring down rain at a DC streetcar stop. Took at the late blue hour, on H Street NE behind Union Station. The streetcar was originally parked when I starting shooting, then started to move after 5 seconds. I was aiming to mix light trails and motion blur on this one.
We had been waiting for this guy! Very cool character from DC and an excellent figure of him from McFarlane. 😎

A rework of this long exposure image of the imposing DC Tower. Topaz de-noise brought out much more detail in this image and some adjustments in Lightroom of the River Danube.
This is the sky line of Donau City a new development in Vienna with this impressive DC Tower some 250 metres to the top, 64 floors, 29 lifts and rooftop restaurant and bar with stunning views across Vienna.

The lift we went in is one of the fastest in Europe and is pre-programmed before you get in..... no buttons inside just a display with the floor numbers as you go whizzing upwards at 8 metres per second !! Got to be one of the best views in Vienna having a meal or drink looking out from the 57th/58th floor.

This picture was taken at around 12th Street and Independence Ave in Washington, DC. The archway is apart of the US Department of Agriculture building.
This exhibit was not labeled but I took it to be three boneyard DC-3s that had been turned into an art exhibit of some sort at some point.
They’re on a back lot at the Pima Air & Space Museum near one of the first 747s ever built by Boeing, but not close enough to juxtapose photographically.
