Budapest really is great for nice city views, especially from the castle. I usually prefer the view towards the Chain bridge, but also the one towards the Elisabeth bridge is great.

This is a blend of two exposures. Mostly I used only one, but I had to darken few very bright areas from a second one. Edited in Lightroom and Photoshop.

Moving host

I had to move the blog to a new host this week, as it was just too slow for my linking. So I’m sorry for a bit of downtime that was mostly today, while it was changing to a new address. I do hope that this will result in better response and loading times overall, and it will just work better.  

Flower in Lyon

And for todays photo, here is one from Lyon in France. This is a flower sculpture in the middle of the city. I wanted a bit different composition, but I could not get closer, as it was completely surrounded by a fence. So all I did was to get the tripod as close as I could and put the camera high, so getting over the fence. I worked quite fine :) 

As I mentioned in my Top spots in Budapest, there is this wall with a walkway on it next to the Fishermans Bastion. It gives a great view of the city, but of course, the view towards the other side is also great :)

I’m sorry for the break in uploads the last week, but the frozen evening I spend taking the last photo I posted, really did not work for me well, especially for my allergy that I mentioned. If you want to imagine the effect, it’s like I cut my hands, around 20 times all over the fingers. Really not pleasant and a bit problematic when one wants to do something (it hurts like hell). But with it getting warmer this healed, and finally I’m able to normally continue. So here is a shot from Passau in Germany from last summer.
