Just returned from my trip in Europe, it was a whole new experience for me. First stop was Budapest, Hungary.
There is so much history and artwork in the cities.
Performers in cobble stone streets.
The Szent István-Bazilika
Inside the church, where artwork filled the every inch of the interior.
The Budapest Parliament as seen from the Fisherman’s Bastion.
Next we took the train to Baden, a small town where Beethoven had resided.
Hiked up to the ruined castle of Rauhenstein built in the 12th century.
Beautifully maintained building in the city center.
After a pleasant afternoon we took the train to Salzburg.

Recently got around to scanning the Yashica Mat-124G negatives taken during Chinese New Year in Hong Kong.
Even with the instant feedback and convenience of digital systems, it is another beast altogether to use the light-meter, set all the dials, cock the shutter, and focus on the subject.
I ventured out to Tai Po Market one Sunday just to wander around the local parks and markets.
The elderly looking after their grandchildren.
Others playing ‘bone’ cards, a traditional Chinese card game.
Convenience store in the midst of government housing.
Roasted chestnuts are great in the cold weather!
A lot of people were buying groceries for New Years family gatherings.
Stools in a mom & pop diner. The establishment has been there since the 1970s.
Arcades have been replaced by the likes of the Wii, PS3, Xbox in households.
