Old Budapest

Budapest is actually divided into two halves, Buda and Pest, by the Danube river. The old city of Buda lies on the west side and was the location of the castle. This shot was taken at the foot of the castle, near the river, in an old part of town. The wrought iron balcony caught my eye first. The whole scene reminded me of something from an old movie. I shot this intentionally for black and white. I still can't put my finger on it, but it makes me feel nostalgic for times long gone
