Art on lake

Yesterday we went to the City Park in Budapest again. Some more artistic works had been placed in the lake since last time. The exhibition is called “Art on Lake”.

Just an ordinary street view. Here is our nearest metro and I checked my camera settings for the day. But I prefer walking.

This art wall I shoot every time I come to Budapest and every day I leave Budapest. It’s a theatre. I was here when the artist made the wall – lucky me :)

We went to Malmö yesterday. My grandson (3yrs) thought it was a dragon statue. When I told him it is a horse and a king he said: No!

Malmö

SkyWatch Friday 

skane_20110727_malmo1

We went to Malmö yesterday. It was a wonderful day and lots of people were out in the city. Many tourists – all kinds of languages could be heard. Very international  - you could buy food dishes from many different countries.
It was a festival mood in city.
We went by train from Lund to Malmö. It takes only 10-15 minutes.
Today the weather is grey grey grey and rainy :(  … so boring!

Haga gardens

SkyWatch Friday 

In the morning it looked promising – blue sky and soft white clouds …

sky_20110623_lund

I decided with Milton to visit one of the allotments nearby – Haga Gardens. Macro lense for shooting bugs and flowers … hopefully …

We walked every garden path up and down …

But what happens in the sky!?

It looks more worrying … and isn’t it getting darker …

What to do with my camera? I didn’t plan for such weather!
Well I put my camera inside my T-shirt and hold my backsack over it to protect …. didn’t reach home before the rain …

One of my shots from one of Haga gardens …

Happy Midsummer!

Buda walk

SkyWatch Friday 

Today I have been skywatching on Buda side in the Buda Castle area and around Fisherman’s bastion. It has been a cloudy and a bit windy day.


I bought little “SURFINA” today. She will keep me company from now on. She is sitting on the Fisherman’s Bastion when I shoot the Parliament.


This Castle Area in front of the President’s Palace.


I never give money to beggers but I always give money to young skillful musicians.


The National Dance Theatre to the left and the President’s Palace to the right.


Now I have entered the Castle yard.


The front side of the Buda Castle.


The eagle is skywatching.


Now I will turn home again and will walk back on the Chain Bridge. I live just behind the St Stephan Cathedral in the picture’s center.


When I am on the Chain Bridge I stop to shoot the Parliament. It is obvious the water is very strong in the Danube.

Have a nice weekend!


Welcome to my Thursday Weather !
