A Walk in the Snow…
Posted by Fyse on Monday, 14 January 2008
Probably the penultimate Budapest photo, after which I’ll have to get out
and take some new shots if I’m to maintain this year’s break-neck rate of
posting. This shot was taken on Margaret Island, which lies in the middle of
the Danube between Buda and Pest. Apparently during the summer the gardens
are the Hungarian equivalent of Hyde Park, but during winter it was largely
empty, a hint of post-communist-wasteland to the deserted paths and
vandalised buildings. Only an occasional well-wrapped couple strolling
through the snow, and perhaps a disconcerting foreigner peeking from between
the trees…

Good pic. The couple is very nicely centered. By the way, do you ever make prints and frame them or put them in an album?
Er, not really, no. I made a photobook for a couple of friends last summer (of their joint birthday party) but I think that’s the last time any of my photos made it onto paper. Oh, my entries to the ongoing competition were printed for an exhibition toward the end of last term, too.
I plan to make more photobooks (though Lightroom infuriatingly doesn’t do this). I also have a couple empty frames ready for me to find shots I deem worthy of such enlargement, but I’m still waiting on that…
