This photo was taken in the very famous vegetarian Restaurant in Vienna called TIAN. Its Chef de Cuisine, Paul Ivić is very famous in the Austrian vegetarian and vegan scene. Actually, we shot all the dishes from above. This dish fascinated me in its simplicity and at the same time in the exciting arrangement of the ingredients when seen from the frontal perspective.

This photo was taken at the terrace of the hotel "Wilder Eder" in Austria. It was a wonderful sunny day with bright light. The interesting part was to play with this direct sunlight and the very sharp shadows. This is one photo out of a series for the Bookazin "Zu Gast"

This shot was taken for the Magazin "ZU GAST" - its a dish designed and made by the famous 2-star chef Konstantin Fillipou. He is running a restaurant in the 1st district of Vienna.
