On a visit to Vienna several years ago I asked to be taken to a traditional Viennese coffee house and I was told that the one I was taken to was the last one remaining. I do not know whether it was Cafe Hawelka or not, but I produced this image there, hand holding my camera in pretty low light (film then, of course) and it is one of my firm favourites. I hope you enjoy it too and maybe one of my Austrian friends could confirm whether it was indeed Cafe Halwelka? http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/gwpics/0853-01.jpg.html Gerry Gerry Walden LRPS +44 (0)23 8046 3076 (Office) +44 (0)797 287 7932 (Mobile) Web: www.gwpics.com
