Famous Landmarks - Innsbruck I

Published:

Description

In July I attended the so-called Art Didacta (summer academy for graphic arts) and spent one week with my camera.

It was not what I had expected, and after roughly two days I felt ready to throw my camera into the Inn and never to think about it again. Seeing pictures as "art" simply because they were either under- or overexposed or because they were blurred was too much for me.

After those two days, however, I decided I was the paying customer and that I'd finish that by my own rules, and finally got inspired to do this little project - the first photo is the one you're looking at right now.
I was inspired by the countless tourists frequenting our city during main seasons, and the fact that they ALWAYS take the same pictures of the landmarks Innsbruck offers. As if a sign was propped up besides each one, telling them what to aim at. :)

So enjoy the sterotypical tour through Innsbruck, starting with the famous new ski jump on the Bergisel.

Big thanks go to :iconpyanfar: for holding up the sign ;) and, ofc, also to my dad, :icontheoldman: , for helping to draw the sign.
