Finally sorted through a ton of photos and picked 115 of my favorite shots.
This time around, I focused on capturing the light at dusk and night. Also documented a sense of what it feels like to commute around Budapest on a daily basis as a local – subway, buses, and trams.
Oh, and Vienna did show me what to photograph. Gallery coming later.
Check out the Budapest Gallery (115 photos)

Great photo, great site, in a couple of years i will star an all around the world trip.
Such wonderful images!!!! Thanks for sharing 🙂
Thanks for your comments. Definitely add Hungary to your future travels.
Gorgeous photo of the Budapest cityscape!
great pix, especially the one that has the lady sitting under 2 trees…
Absolutely stunning, particularly the night shots. I had been considering Hungary; your photos are pushing me toward “yes.”
Can you keep ’em coming? 🙂
@Monica – Many thanks! Definitely more photos coming soon. By the way, is there a feed I can subscribe to on your blog? I added it to my Google Reader but it still doesn’t come up.
Thanks!
Beautiful photo Lola! I need to take a photography course. My night shots are all blurry and indecipherable.
JoAnna – You know we’re launching a MatadorU photo course very, very soon 🙂
how do you do night shots so well?
@Nomadic Matt – A tripod and cable release 🙂 Or any stable surface
Absoulutely stunning! I’ve never been all that interested in Buapest or Hungary but you pix change my mind.
Fly Girl -Thanks! Budapest the second time around really grew on me.
I loved that first one in the gallery. Such movement!
Unbelievable picture
Thanks Filip!
Lola- I enjoyed looking at the photos of a city I don’t know at all. From your gallery, I get the impression that the population of Budapest skews demographically toward older folks… true?
@Julie – Thanks. Yes, it did seem that way; that the average age was hovering around 45-50 as well as lots of much older folk.
Plus the older Hungarians were more interesting to photograph. Their fashion sense was quite intriguing.
Gorgeous shot! Brings back great memories of Budapest 🙂
@Valerie – Thanks!
That’s one of the best photos I’ve seen come out of your camera. Absolutely beautiful…nice work.
@Dylan – Thanks so much. I carried along my tripod and played around with various settings.
