Cuernos and Valle Francés seen from Rio Serrano. Getting up early to see the sunrise turn the mountains red was an exercise in futility- no reds, only shades of grey;-)

The iconic 1949 film "The Third Man" plays in a bombed post war Vienna. After the confrontation in the Prater ferris wheel the showdown takes place in the sewers of the town. One day I'd like to take a guided tour of the Viennese sewers, in this montage a photo of the old Elbtunnel had to stand in;-) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Third_Man The famous film music by Anton Karas: www.youtube.com/watch?v=2oEsWi88Qv0&ab_channel=Pianola%26JazzyStuff
