I was searching through my hard drives for some photos when I came across a large batch of unidentified images from a trip to Austria in October 2016.

This was a very productive adventure, but I never properly sorted my photos.

I made these on a rainy night using my Fuji X-T1 with 28mm pancake lens with the camera set to 1600 ISO—which was just about as fast as I’d push the camera.

I imported the original RAF Raw file into PureRaw to denoise the photo and correct for lens imperfections. I was extremely impressed with the results, which are so much better than I could have anticipated at the time I exposed the photos. For presentation here, I made a variety of color and contrast corrections to the final image using Adobe Lightroom.

For me these images nicely translate the nocturnal urban environment of the cosmopolitan Austrian capital.
