Beautiful architecture of Vienna University of Economics and Business
As you probably know, I like to shoot architecture very much. To this place I was first brought by my friend Dragan, for what I am very grateful to him. It is really a genuine masterpiece of architecture.
Since my first visit to the Vienna Universiy of Economics and Business I come back here almost regularly when I visit Vienna. When I am already losing my strength to find and explore new and new locations, this is exactly where I find my refuge. It is a complex of buildings of so magnificent architecture that from each of the visits I always take home at least one slick photo.
View of building from the perspective of Long Exposure
All photographs except for one are again photographed using Long Exposure technique. Because of that I got a view at these beautiful lines that buildings offer from a different perspective. Neutral density filters helped me capture the movement of clouds and thus revived individual images. In postprocessing I also highlighted the contrast on the facade. Its structure is almost perfect for black and white photography.
Interior
The interior with its beauty does not lag behind the external appearance of each building. How the Vienna University of Economics and Business looks like you can see in my earlier article. Friend executed permission to photograph the entrance hall so we did not hesitate for a moment. And we did well because according to what Dragan said, to get permission to take photographs inside is already not possible. One photographer apparently fell from the floor to the ground when photographed. He was probably so overwhelmed that did not care of himself, well, also such effect can have beautiful architecture on man…
I desire to become a student again
It happened to me the first time when I was here and that feeling has not left me. This place has a kind of magic in itself. Just attracts me and I feel about to come back here again and again. The architects did a great job. Because to me the objective should not be only that your work is admired by all who go around but that students feel good inside. And in my opinion, it succeeded. It really seems to me that there does not exist such a standard stress atmosphere and student reluctance to go to school but quite the contrary. As if they all were proud that are studying here.

Hi matej!
Very nice blog post, i am glad we found this place! As you daid , there is always something new to discover in the peace and tranquility of a univeristy campus.

Thank Dragan! I believe that there are some more compositions and nice angles to discover, we must definitely find them together 🙂 I look forward to our next meeting.
Výborné, tieto miesta si úplne pýtajú takéto spracovanie. Mám rád tieto fotky. Jediné čo mi nesadlo je stmavenie bielej budovy na vrchu vo fotke s lietadlovou stopou. Inak je výborná, tak ako to už pri Tvojich foto býva 🙂
Hello Matej,
Ethereal beauty and elegance of this architecture so well communicated. I have followed your posts previously. They have all been of superior quality, but this one in particular just stopped me in my tracks. I have always had a deep passion for black and white rendition, this one though, especially the first photo really spoke to me. Thanks so much for sharing.
Hi Mike,
thank you, glad you like my pictures. The first one is my favorite too! More articles coming in the next year, so just stay tuned 🙂
Matej
