A post card from The Danube

A trip to Hungary, Budapest brings us onto the River Danube. Here we see the Hotel Gellért, a historic Art Nouveau hotel established in 1918 and located on the west bank of the Danube.

The mist is actually an illusion as I took this from behind a glass window fence showing the hotel and also reflecting the incoming high clouds from behind.

Good to have you back amongst us Herb...........I don't think you've missed much :-)) I've just read your reply to TOZ's comment so it's good to hear your trip went well and importantly the weather was on your side for a change!

The "illusory" mist works very well here and really adds atmosphere to the shot. Beautiful architecture and lovely light too.

Very well composed and taken sir!

Herb Riddle replied to Keith Burton:

Great to be back, I think Keith. Unbelievable weather that I was quite unprepared for. Blue skies every day -yes cool in the mornings but quite warm later as the tourist sipped cool drinks outside in their shirt sleeves. - I will no doubt have to pay for that weather in our coming winter months now ! A rather artistic opportunist shot here which I thought would appeal to you too. Glad it did.

best Wishes. Herb
