Speaking about globalisation... Photo

Photographer’s Note

So. This is just a shot of the street in ancient Austrian city Hallstatt. Thing about this shot, what made me feel that it's maybe interesting, that this shot was made by Russian, of a German car and Japan girls near it. This car was hired by me, Russian, in Austria, to perform a trip around with my friends, one is Austrian girl and another is guy from New Zealand with their kid, half-Austrian and half-New Zealand girl.
ANother thing is that I wanted to go on this trip with my relative, who was born in Prague and actually half-Russian and with a certain amount of Romanian and Bolgarian blood also.

I really think that globalisation is interesting thing.

Oh and, on another thought, brother of this New Zealand guy is married on Finnish girl.

hi Uhu,

that's true. globalization is an interesting thing...and I am actually a no global because...my family name is practicalli to find in my small village only, my parents have the same family name without being relatives and come from the same town.

it is actually the opposite to the globalisation isn't it?

ciao
Silvio

Hi Uhu. I like to see and also read about this photo. You are right, we live in a truely Global Village these days. The buildings here are most interesting to see. The bright sky makes it difficult but you show it how it is. TFS. Murray.

Hallo Uhu!
Deine schönes Foto zeigt mir, wie klein doch die Welt ist! Ich finde es aber sehr gut, wenn Menschen durch Reisen andere Länder und Lebensarten kennenlernen, möchte aber auch wissen wie hoch die Umweltverschmutzung und der Energieverbrauch durch den Tourismus ist. Denke dabei an Flugverkehr und Kreuzfahrschiffe

Good day again, Uhu-san :)
Вот приятная неожиданность - случайно появилось как random photo и, естественно, привлекло мое внимание... отличнейшее фото во всех смыслах. Лучше композицию и угол съемки было бы трудно выбрать, я думаю. И тут я даже не против современного автомобиля, стоящего на дороге: он так хорошо уравновешивает правую сторону фото!
Great perspective view, and even though the day looks kinda grey, this scene is full of lovely colours.
very best wishes!
