Vienna, Austria: The myths of water horses were common in Scotland where the monster of Lochness lake was described as a horse with webbed hoofs and a fish like tail. The fountain of the sea god Neptune built in Schonbrunn, the royal palace of Vienna, in 1780, has on the top Neptune with the sea goddess Thetis, while at lower level there are Neptune's soldiers Tritons, half men and half fishes. They are accompnaied by water horses who are supposed to pull the chariot of Neptune.

वियेना, आस्ट्रियाः पानी में रहने वाले मिथिक घोड़ों की कहानियाँ स्कॉटलैंड में प्रचलित थीं जहाँ लोकनेस्स झील में रहनेवाले दानव को घोड़े की तरह बताते थे, जिसके खुर बतख जैसे होते थे और पूँछ मछली जैसी. 1780 में जब वियेना के राजमहल शॉनबरुन्न में समुद्र देवता नेपच्यून यानि वरुण का फुव्वारा बनाया गया तो उसमें ऊपर वरुण तथा समुद्र की यवनी देवी थेटिस थे, नीचे वरुण के सिपाही ट्रिटोन जो आधे पुरुष आधे मछली थे. उनके साथ वरुण का रथ खींचने वाले पानी के घोड़े थे.

Vienna, Austria: I miti dei cavalli acquatici erano popolari in Scozia dove il mostro del lago di Lochness era descritto come un cavallo con i zoccoli palmati e la coda di pesce. La fontana dedicata al dio del mare Nettuno costruita nel palazzo reale di Vienna "Schonbrunn" nel 1780, ha in cima il Nettuno con la dea del mare Teti mentre sotto vi sono i soldati di Nettuno, i tritoni, metà uomini e metà pesci. Sono accompagnati dai cavalli acquatici, i quali devono tirare la carrozza di Nettuno.

Vienna, Austria: Built in the second half of 19th century, the parliament building is influenced by the classical Greek and Roman architecture.

वियेना, आस्ट्रियाः उन्नीसवीं शताब्दी के उत्तरार्ध में बना यहाँ का संसद भवन प्राचीन ग्रीक व रोमन वास्तुशिल्प से प्रभावित है जिसमें अन्दर जाने के मार्ग के दोनो ओर प्रसिद्ध रोमन दर्शनकारों तथा इतिहासकारों की मूर्तियाँ बनी हैं. केवल आस्ट्रिया ही नहीं, पूरे पश्चिमी यूरोप ने ग्रीक तथा रोमन समय से ही प्रेरणा ली है.

Vienna, Austria: Costruito nella seconda meta del 19° secolo, l'edificio del parlamento è influenzato dalla architettura classica greco-romana. Ai lati delle entrate, vi sono le statue dei filosofi e degli storici romani. Non solo Austria, ma tutta l'Europa occidentale considera l'epoca greco-romana come la base della sua civiltà.

Vienna, Austria: I have always liked clicking the mannequins in the shop windows. The way they are set, their expressions, it looks like a theatre stage. Today's images have some mannequins on the stage from Vienna.

वियेना, आस्ट्रियाः दुकानों की खिड़कियों में लगे पुतलों की तस्वीरें लेना मुझे अच्छा लगता है. कैसे उन्हें सजाया जाता है, कैसी उनकी भावमुद्रा होती है, नाटक का रंगमँच लगता है. आज की तस्वीरों में वियेना की दुकानों से कुछ पुतलों का रंगमँच.

Vienna, Austria: Mi è sempre piaciuto scattare le foto ai manichini nelle vetrine dei negozi. Il modo in cui sono arrangiati, le loro espressioni, mi fanno pensare ad un palcoscenico di teatro. Le immagini di oggi hanno alcuni manichini sul palcoscenico da Vienna.

Graz, Austria: Graz has 6 universities and is called the city of students. There, on a bridge on Mur river, we saw a young man tying a rope. Then he went down and with the help of that rope and a surf board, started grappling against the fast current of the river.

ग्राज़, ऑस्ट्रियाः ग्राज़ में 6 विश्वविद्यालय हैं और इसे विद्यार्थियों का शहर कहते हैं. वहीं मूर नदी के पुल पर एक युवक को रस्सी बाँधते देखा. फ़िर वह नीचे जा कर उसी रस्सी के सहारे नीचे नदी में सर्फबोर्ड पर लहरों से जूझने लगा!

Graz, Austria: Graz ha 6 università ed è chiamata la città degli studenti. La, su un ponte sul fiume Mur abbiamo visto un giovane legare una corda. Poi lui scese giù e con l'aiuto della corda e di un surf board, iniziò a lottare contro la corrente del fiume.

Vienna, Austria: In the museum and theatre area of the city, there are colourful plastic "beds" on which people relax. These have tube like spaces underneath. I was thinking that in winter, homeless persons may like to sleep in those tubes to escape the cold.

वियेना, ऑस्ट्रियाः शहर के नाटकघर व संग्रहालय वाले हिस्से में प्लास्टिक के रंगबिरंगे "बिस्तर" थे जिन पर लोग पसरे रहते थे. उनके नीचे नली जैसी जगह बनी थीं. सोचता था कि सड़क पर सोने वाले लोगों को सर्दियों की रातों में उस नली में सोने से सर्दी कम लगेगी!

Vienna, Austria: Nella zona dei musei e dei teatri, vi sono dei "letti" di plastica multicolori sui quali le persone si rilassano. Questi hanno degli spazi sotto, come dei tubi. Pensavo che in inverno, le persone senza casa vorranno dormire dentro quei tubi per sfuggire al freddo.

Vienna, Austria: In 1836, actor and drammatist Ferdinand Raimund was 46 years old when he was bitten by a dog. Afraid that the dog was rabid and he will die an atrocious and painful death, he had preferred to shoot and kill himself. The rabies vaccine was invented in 1885. Today's images have Ferdinand Raimund memorial from Vienna.

वियेना, ऑस्ट्रियाः सन् 1836 में अभिनेता व नाटककार फेरडिनान्ड रायमुन्ड 46 वर्ष के थे जब उन्हें कुत्ते ने काटा. उन्हें भय था कि वह कुत्ता पागल था और उनकी मृत्यू रेबिज़ की बीमारी से तड़प तड़प के होगी. जिससे उन्होंने स्वयं को गोली मार कर आत्महत्या करना बेहतर समझा. रेबीज़ की वेक्सीन का आविष्कार 1885 में हुआ था. आज की तस्वीरों में वियेना से फेरडिनान्ड रायमुन्ड स्मारक.

Vienna, Austria: Nel 1836, attore e drammaturgo Ferdinand Raimund aveva 46 anni quando fu morsicato da un cane.

Karlskirche, Vienna, Austria - images by Sunil Deepak, 2013

Karlskirche, Vienna, Austria - images by Sunil Deepak, 2013

Vienna, Austria: The blue-green dome of Karlskirche (St. Charles church) lit in the evening sun attracted me. On going closer, I liked the way that dome reflected in a small pond in front. The Greek style entrance, two columns inspired from Trajan's column in Rome, the modern sculpture "Hill arches" by Henry Moore in the pond - in spite of being a mishmash of different styles, the total effect was very pleasing.

वियेना, ओस्ट्रियाः डूबते सूर्य की किरणों में रंगे कार्ल्सकिर्शे (सैंट चार्ल्स चर्च) के हरे-नीले गुम्बज ने मुझे आकर्षित किया. पास जा कर देखा तो सामने छोटे से तालाब में प्रतिबिम्बित होता गुम्बज और भी सुन्दर दिख रहा था. यवनी शैली में बना प्रवेश द्वार, रोमन त्रोइआनों के खम्बे से प्रेरित दो खम्बे, सामने हेनरी मूर की आधुनिक कलाकृति "पहाड़ी मेहराबें" - विभिन्न शैलियों की खिचड़ी मिलाने के बावज़ूद कुल प्रभाव बहुत सुन्दर लगा.

Vienna, Austria: Ero attratto dalla cupola verde-azzurra di Karlskirche (Chiesa di san Carlo) illuminata dalla luce del tramonto. Quando sono arrivato più vicino, mi è piaciuto come la cupola si riflette nel laghetto di fronte. L'entrata in stile greco, le due colonne ispirate dalla colonna di Troiano a Roma, la scultura moderna "Archi della collina" di Henry Moore nel laghetto - nonostante il miscuglio di stili, l'effetto complessivo è molto piacevole.

वियेना, ओस्ट्रियाः "गिल्डिन्ग" यानि वस्तुओं पर स्वर्ण की परत लगाने की कला बहुत पुरानी है. भारत में अमृतसर का पूरा गुरुद्वारा ही स्वर्ण की परत से ढका है. आज की तस्वीरों में वियेना से इसके कुछ उदाहरण.
