Memorial to National Togetherness 1, a photo from Budapest, West

Photographer's Note

Taken on Wednesday with my new toy, a Graflex Miniature Speed Graphic - Don't be mistaken by its name, it isn't a tiny camera. :)

Gert, I hope that the minimal human presence will be enough for you to like it. :)

In the bg. you can see the Building of Parliament. More on the place: https://second.wiki/wiki/denkmal_der_nationalen_zusammengehc3b6rigkeit

Hi Gyorgy,the new toy shows the muscles with a great 3D effect in this perspective, the human presence is very useful to understand the dimensions of the whole without being invasive, really an original way to show a part of Budapes parliament! Have a nice weekend and thanks,Luciano

Hello Gy鰎gy,
I would have liked this, and recognized it as one of your pictures, even without the minimal human presence. The diagonals, depth and greyscale are enough for me. And of course the inclusion of a part of the well known Parliament building.
Best regards,
Gert

Hello Gy,

Oh ... how good to get a new toy!

You have made a good start with it!

This is one of those shots which immediately grabs attention! The dark walls have been included to great effect, guiding our attention rapidly inwards to the Building of Parliament.
Great subject for b&w.

My warm regards,
Bev :-)

Hello Gyorgy,
I really like the contrasts in this photo and the long diagonal lines pointing towards the centre with the well-known Parliament Building and the lonely person in front of it. Well done.

Hi Gyorgy
Whatever the Graflex Miniature Speed Graphic is it certainly provided you with a great photo with that narrowing path, the lone person and handsome building beyond.
cheers

Hello Gyorgy,
This is a very bold and eye-catching composition. I like the dark walls leading us out to the beautiful Parliament Building. All the lines and angles are great. Take care!
