The front of the Great Market “Központi Vásárcsarnok” in Budapest, shoot with my Corina plastic camera.
that I bought in Prague in a small camera shop, cause I – at the time – wanted a “Holga” like camera, that wasn’t a Holga, if you know what I mean.
The only “problem” with my Corina camera was – and still is – that it makes to good photos, not Holga like at all, no falls light or vignettes…..
The post process on this photo is a bit out of the ordinary, cause as I wrote above, the Corina camera doesn’t make Holga like photos at all.
So in order to get a gritty look, I droped the negative on the floor, to make it catch some dust, and then I scanned it, and added a vignette and some contrast to it in Photoshop.
It’s was shoot on a black and white film.

Well on our Eastern Europe trip we arrived in Budapest, where were stayed a few days.
Budapest is a really beautiful city, on its own Eastern European way, and I mean that in a very positive way.
Take a city like Prague which is also beautiful, but it has become very Western European over the last couple of years. Where Budapest still has some of this east European mystique, and it is really cool.
The photo is of the Chain Bridge (Széchenyi Lánchíd in Hungarian) which is the most famous of the bridges that connects Buda with Pest. it opened in November 20, 1849 and is 375 meters long.
I haven’t done that much to the image in the post process, added a little contrast and adjusted the colors.
once I got suggested that I croped the image just above the lights, because I would 1st. avoided the large burnt sky in the upper right corner. And 2nd get a very strong vanishing point at the bottom left side. But I kind of like that you can see the bridge out of focus in the background, so I kept it my way.
