Chain Bridge Traffic – Budapest
I found this short time lapse of Chain Bridge Traffic I took back in 2018 while in Budapest for work. We’re all stuck at home trying to #flattenTheCurve of the COVID-19 pandemic. When not working remotely, I’m going through terabytes of storage. Its like a electronic spring cleaning. This was one of the first time […]
Budapest St. Stephen Statue – Plotagraph
Budapest, St. Stephen Statue – Plotagraph Here’s another Platograph I threw together in under 10 minutes while having my morning coffee. The original image is an HDR shot from my stay in Budapest last year. I did this in the morning before heading out to work and wanted to toss it out there quick 🙂 I […]
Budapest: Saint Matthias Church III
Mátyás-templom (Saint Matthias Church) I’ve posted other photos of Saint Matthias Church in my Budapest photo gallery, but I really did like the way this image came out.

This is one from Budapest, as you enter the courtyard to the Budapest History Museum. I visited the museum on my last trip, but […]
The True Grand Budapest Hotel
Grand Budapest Hotel So, I haven’t done this type of post yet, but there is a first time for everything. Last week I was in Budapest for business, and because of a music festival in town, my normal hotel was booked out, and I stayed at the Hilton Budapest Castle Hotel — and it truly was […]
26 hours to go …
Heading home … Its been a long 5 out of 6 weeks of business travel this summer – but it is coming to a close very shortly. In 26 hours I get on my British Airways flight from Budapest, Hungary to London, Heathrow … then Heathrow back to Philadelphia … then finally back into the Poconos […]
Sziget Festival – I’m (not) with the band
Sziget Festival – I’m (not) with the band I am in Budapest, Hungary on the last leg of my European business trip, and apparently it coincides with Sziget Festival – one of the largest music festivals in Europe is in town this week. All flights were full (or as mine was – overbooked), hotels are packed, […]
