    Three More from Budapest

    Hi all .. just three more images from Budapest (then I'll stop, I promise! )

    The first is the dome from the city's cathedral (St Stephen). The second is called "Paper Girl" for obvious reasons! The third is called Hurdy Gurdy Man.

    Any comments are very welcome.

    Cheers
    Mike

    1) Love the colors and sharpness.

    2) Her eyes are half-closed and too dark.

    3) This would be much better if you were a little closer up, if the entire hand was tack sharp, and, unfortunately, if the player's hand had a lot more character.

    I agree with the good Dr on the second and third. I think the first one would have been better if Moses was upright. You should be able to tackle that one in PS. Other than that it is a great shot.

    2 things;

    #1 The first image is the winner here. The others have focus and exposure issues although I really like the composition of the paper girl image.

    #2 Your pix are a great preview of what I am going to see in a couple of months. I'll have to figure out how to bring more camera gear........
    No, I DON'T need that.

    Mike - No need to stop, they're all good and mostly unseen (unlike Paris or London shots). The top two are good. I think the first could be great but seems to be missing something.. not sure what. The second is neat, but may need more contrast and/or a bit less density. She looks like an alien life form.
