This is the Hofburg, the official residence of the President of Austria. The Habsburgs, the rulers of the Austro-Hungarian empire, and about whom you hear quite a lot in Vienna, used this as their winter residence. Hitler used that balcony for his speech to the Austrians when he annexed Austria in 1938.

All images on this website have been shot using either a Canon S40 compact digital camera, or a Canon 20D DLSR. I'm something of a Canon fan. :) Most images have been post processed with Adobe Photoshop and the CurveMeister plugin. I thoroughly recommend CurveMeister, BTW. It's a great piece of software.
