As you can see, the weather was not good when I was in Budapest two months ago. But still I wanted at least some interesting photos. And as the Hungarian parliament just asks for a nice symmetrical photo, I took this one. The ship was just passing by, so I included it, to give a little life to this scene.
It was cold and windy when I was in Budapest, but at least few photos came out quite nicely. I found this place just walking around the city. It was just behind the West Railway station. It looked like a nice place to relax, but not at that weather :)
Not the most colorful of sunsets. The cloudy sky made the photos look really grey. I punched the color a little, but I don’t want to go further, as it will look unrealistic to me. At least the view was nice :)
Very nice and detailed church this is. Too bad it’s currently under reconstruction, so what you see here is almost everything what is not covered up. Everything else looked like a construction site.
So another weekend, another trip. This time it to Prague. And as the last days were warm and very sunny, the weather during the weekend will probably be horrible. Let’s see :)
So in the last week I got 4 photos into Flickr explore selection, and I didn’t even noticed :). But the fifth got to number 26 and I noticed. It was this one Calling Batman. I noticed that a lot of people react if you give your photo a funny name, I have to do this more often.
Too bad it was closed, but still it looked like a fairy tale castle. I waited in front of it until there were no people and took this shot. I had to do a lot of retouching, as I had to remove all trees from the boarders of this shot, because of the heavy wind. I keep the colors quite soft, as it was a clouded and colorless evening and I don’t want the photo to look unnatural.
I also did a little lens correction on this photo. I was standing quite close to the Bastion, because of a construction side fence behind me, so it distorted the photo quite a lot. I don’d do this usually, as I don’t mind the distortion, but it helped to remove unwanted branches from the corners of the photo.
