 Wasn't going to enter this challenge, but I did a photo shoot for a young lady who was from Salzburg originally, who moved to Perth and just graduated from a University close by. She wanted me to take photos of herself, and husband, mum and dad who flew all the way from Austria to witness the event. They all wore traditional clothing as you can tell. Gotta love those green socks :)

No self-respecting Austrian man would wear those shoes or even worse - sneakers to their Lederhosen. The right ones would be Haferlschuhe. Probably just some wannabe locals
But the picture is quite nice


As you can see from my comment these men, son and father-in-law are definitely true Austrian men, maybe they just wanted to be comfortable for the day.


Or they didn't want to carry the Haferlshoes halfway around the world, these are heavy and take up a lot of space in a suitcase.
Anyway - congrats on the yellow!
