Shadows From The Past

<Back to Budapest B&W
 
This picture means a lot to me. I cried a lot after taking it. And I cried a lot while I was printing it. I had to hold the paper with gloves at the same time the printer was working. Then seeing the amazing black coming out made me cry again, an incredible interplay of shadows, light, and reflections. It is just an incredibly beautiful image. To me, it evokes the old Second War movies. It also inspires me with melancholia and loneliness. It always surprises me how buildings, depending on their light, can make one feel different about a place. There are many corners similar to this one in Budapest, so no excuse to go, even with your mobile, and try it yourself.
