This was taken at Fisherman's Bastion overlooking Parliament and the Danube.
Liz on the steps of the Castle District. She is such a cutie patootie!

From snowboarding in 2000 to Budapest in 2009, we have stayed friends.
Now she's an educated lawyer and all grown up!
I am so grateful that I have made such good friends throughout my life . . . and even more grateful that they are still as cool as I once thought! My friend, Liz Jackson, from Crestwood Apartments came to visit me for a couple of days after spending some time in Paris. Fun huh? We had a blast! We traveled all around Utah and Colorado together, why not Budapest?? ;)
Gorgeous pics! I love friends that can span the years. She is purrrdy and so are you! ;)
ReplyDeletewow what gorgeous sites!!!! When can we come to Europe?! Maybe B can convince us this weekend....it won't be hard.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous pictures as always =) I am glad you had so much fun! I am always so jealous when you make posts of your visitors... I wish it was me! Miss you!
ReplyDeleteIt looks like you had so much fun! The Parliament building looks so awesome.
ReplyDeleteI love that you said, "yet again" as though such sites have become blah-de-da to you. "Here we are in this amazing place that most of you will never experience taking it all in and posing... yet again."
ReplyDeleteLove it. Love you. Glad to see you up and posting again. You had a spell there where I was getting antsy. I heard a rumor that B is around here somewhere, Joe had no details to give me. What is up?
Oh, beautiful pictures again. Beautiful friend too. Someday maybe you can do a post about our visit. I hope. For now, it was fun talking with B at church on Sunday. We're going to meet up with him for dinner once Brian gets here. Too bad you and the kiddos aren't here too!
ReplyDeleteI have a Canon 50D camera. We bought 3 lenses: a macro lens, a walk about all around common use lens, and a wide angle lens. I don't know all the numbers off the top of my tired head, but I can peek and get back to you. I think for this set of pics the walk-about is what we used.
ReplyDeleteI don't have photo shop. If you open up your aperture (the lowest number) it helps to get a nice blurred background for portrait shots. Just watch your shutter speed and ISO. I am guessing that is what you are referring to, but I dunno. You have some breathtaking pics on your blog that I LOVE LOVE.
Miss you, friend.
I love the night pics on the bridge. Europe just looks so magical! It seems like it would be easier to have job satisfaction if you got to work in buildings like that!
ReplyDeleteWow! I love the pictures!
