Description
From all over the city of Vienna and for miles around, the landmark Wiener Riesenrad can be seen high above the rooftops. The main attraction of Prater Park, this massive Ferris Wheel is featured in the popular film 'The Third Man'. When I visited the park, it was deserted, the crowds of summer, long gone, and raindrops fell from the sky. The gaint wheel groaned and creaked in the wind, the bright red compartments swaying, empty of people, but full of mystery and intrigue. There's something eerily fascinating about a fairground in winter, a ghostly calm that's out of place, a haunting silence mocked by the garish cartoon faces looming on every corner. Nostalgia hidden beyond the gloom, lying in wait for the seasons to change and the merry-go-round to spin again. I hand blended textures with my original vintage style photograph to compliment the old world feel of this iconic Viennese scene.
