Photographer’s Note
Széchenyi lánchíd is a suspension bridge that spans the River Danube between Buda and Pest, the western and eastern sides of Budapest, the capital of Hungary. It was the first permanent bridge across the Danube in Budapest, and was opened in 1849,being considered at that time as a wonder of the world, and it became a symbol of advancement, national awakening, and the linkage between East and West. In the image we can see behind it the Buda Castle, it is the historical castle of the Hungarian kings in Budapest. In the past, it was also called Royal Palace and Royal Castle.
Buda Castle was built on the southern tip of Castle Hill, next to the old Castle District, which is famous for its medieval, Baroque and 19th century houses and public buildings. It is linked to Adam Clark Square and the Széchenyi Chain Bridge by the Castle Hill Funicular.
Hope you like it

Bonsoir Felip,
Très jolie image nocturne. Une illusion d'optique fait penser que l'image penche un peu à gauche.
La lumière est bien maîtrisée et le POV excellent.
Amitiés.

A lovely quite frequently photographed view of Budapest that you've managed to capture in a fantastic manner though. The blue sky really makes a huge difference here. The overall composition is good and the exposure is spot on with no over- or underexposed areas.

Classical photo of the castle and the bridge. Your tming in the blue hour was perfect and you captured beautiful lights. I like the crop, but the whole photo is leaning a bit to the left. TFS!

Bonjour Felip,
une gestion parfaite des lumières dans une photo qui semble un peu pencher sur la gauche. Un excellent POV qui laisse deviner le pont avec de la perspective, mais aussi un format panoramique qui convient bien.
Regards.
Daniel.

Buenos días Felip,
En la noche azul, las luces son resplandecientes, enrojecidos los colores de la arquitectura, son agradables. Es una bonita vista de este puente notable y muy fotografiado. Buena realización, buena claridad.
Buen domingo.
Cordialmente.

Hola Felip
A lovely night shot from the city I would love to visit one day! Exposure is fine against the blue hour sky. Like the close crop in the pano format, but I think there's a tilt to the left. Details are fine in this otherwise well done shot my friend
Best Regards

Aunque un poco inclinada, la perspectiva es preciosa y con una luz magnífica. Muy bonito el puente y los edificios del fondo. Buen trabajo amigo.
Un abrazo,
