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!

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
