Budapest

[mora]

Here are some pics I took in Budapest/Hungary some months ago. Bessa R with 1.7/35mm Ultron and Agfa APX 100/ Rollei Retro 400.

Szentendre (small city near Budapest):

On the Frankfurt Airport on the way to Budapest:

It was the first time I really used this Combination but it was a great pleasure for me!

Sorry for the bad scans :bang:

That first image is pretty amazing.

That first overview of the city and Danube is a good lead-in to the street scenes... Good for you for venturing out with the camera in the dark, wet, and cold. 🙂

Those are very nice, thank you.

I can't tell you the last time I saw a picture of Budapest, but those are nice 🙂

Very nice!

I like your photos very much. But I also have to admit to loving Budapest -its one of the most picturesque cities in the world. Here are some of mine I posted on this forum a year or two back. Cheers and thanks for sharing.

Hi, thank you very much for taking a look and leaving a comment! 🙂 And you´re right, Budapest is indeed a very nice city.

And Peter, thank you for your link. Those are beautiful pictures!

very nice pics!what about vaci utca?

Thank you for your comment, Paolo!

At Vaci Utca I took some low-light pictures, but unfortunately only with my DSLR.

I really like those shots. But I have to say that they have a little colour tint, also those shot with a DSLR as you said.

Nice pictures, but they don't look 100% sharp to me. There should be more in APX 100, so it's probably the scanning.

Thanks Florian and rxmd!

Of course they have a coulor tint. Both, the DSLR and the Bessa pictures are sepia toned in PS CS, in order to get a warmer look.

Rxmd, you´re right. In default of a film scanner I scanned the pictures with an ordinary flat bed scanner. The APX and the Rollei too are much sharper. But until now I couldn´t bring myself to buy a decent film scanner, because the most pictures I take with my DSLR.

I see vampires in the background!

What did you expect? 🙂

I like your photos very much; they make me want to visit Budapest! Very nice work!

 

[mora]

Thank you, Bingley!
And yes, Budapest is really worth a journey!

The 3rd one is haunting 🙂

Sounds like a place to visit with a MF camera...

 

[mora]

Thanks Will!

nice shots but almost no people, pretty strange since Budapest is a rather crowded city.

Great shots which have a really nice atmosphere. How much PP did you to them? I find my ultron to be a lot more neutral and less contrasty...
