Night Photo Of The Parliament In Budapest
Canon EOS 7D
EF-S10-18mm ƒ4.5-5.6 IS STM
ISO200 / ƒ11 / 4s
Hello HIVEs!
My wife and I visited Budapest over the Easter weekend. The most famous photo subject is the Parliament building, which stands majestically on the banks of the Danube. The last time I was in the Hungarian capital was 10 years ago on a business trip. I took photos of the Parliament building back then as well. Today, I’d like to share three photos featuring this subject. Each photo was taken with a different camera. Decide for yourself which one you like best and let me know in the comments.
Am Osterwochenende besuchten meine Frau und ich Budapest. Das bekannteste Fotomotiv ist das Parlament, welches sich prachtvoll am Donauufer präsentiert. Das letzte Mal war ich vor 10 Jahren in der Ungarischen Hauptstadt beruflich unterwegs. Auch zu dieser Zeit fotografierte ich das Parlamentsgebäude. Heute möchte ich drei Fotos mit diesem Motiv präsentieren. Jedes Foto wurde mit einer anderen Kamera aufgenommen. Entscheide selbst, welches am besten gefällt und schreib es in die Kommentare.

The cover photo was taken around 2:00 a.m. I had set an alarm and then walked from the hotel to the banks of the Danube across from the Parliament building, carrying a Canon 7D and a tripod. I had placed the camera below street level, right at the water’s edge, and shot a series of exposures so I could stitch the photos together if needed. I was sure that at that hour, no one would disturb me. That was far from the case, because an Asian tourist nearly knocked over the tripod—camera and all. I was just able to jump in front of the tripod to stop it from falling.
Das Titelbild entstand morgens gegen 2:00 Uhr. Ich hatte mir einen Wecker gestellt und bin dann mit einer Canon 7D und Stativ vom Hotel an das Donauufer gegenüber dem Parlament gewandert. Die Kamera hatte ich unterhalb der Straße, direkt am Wasser platziert und schoß Belichtungsreihen um die Fotos bei Bedarf zu stitchen. Um diese Uhrzeit, da war ich mir sicher, wird man nicht gestört. Das war mit Nichten so, denn ein asiatischer Tourist hätte fast das Stativ mit samt Kamera umgerannt. Ich konnte gerade noch vor das Stativ springen, um es zu verhindern.

The second image shows a photo taken with the iPhone 12 Pro. In the photo editing app, I increased the contrast and straightened the building vertically by -8°.

The last photo was taken with an Olympus E-M1 II. I wanted to try out the high-resolution mode here. By shifting the image sensor by half a pixel during the exposure, the camera captures 8 images and combines them into a single 50-megapixel image. Of course, this only works if the subject isn’t moving, so a tripod is required. What’s amazing is that the boats moving on the Danube during this shot were effectively removed from the image. In my case, I found this very useful. In post-processing, I only straightened the building vertically by -7°.
Das letzte Bild wurde mit einer Olympus E-M1 II geschossen. Hier wollte ich den Hochauflösenden Modus ausprobieren. Durch Bewegung des Bildsensors während der Aufnahme um ein halbes Pixel werden 8 Bilder aufgenommen und zu einem 50MPixel-Bild zusammengefügt. Dies funktioniert natürlich nur, wenn sich das Motiv nicht bewegt. Es ist also ein Stativ erforderlich. Erstaunlich ist, dass die Boote, die sich während dieser Aufnahme auf der Donau bewegten, herausgerechnet wurden. In meinem Fall fand ich das sehr praktisch. In der Nachbearbeitung habe ich nur das Gebäude vertikal um -7° begradigt.

The Hungarian Parliament Building (Országház) in Budapest was constructed between 1885 and 1904 on the banks of the Danube. Standing 96 meters tall and 268 meters long, it is one of the largest parliament buildings in the world. The architect drew inspiration from the Palace of Westminster. The building was constructed in the Neo-Gothic style.
The Parliament has 365 staircases and 10 courtyards and houses the Hungarian coronation regalia, including the Crown of St. Stephen.
The next post will finally be about a light painting project I did in Budapest. So stay tuned!

Beautiful photos! I’ve only been to Budapest once and that was right in the city center because I had a delivery there. 😁 It’s a pity that I rarely visit Hungary and haven’t had the chance to properly explore this wonderful city yet, but I hope that’s still ahead of me.
Thank you! 😊
Budapest is really beautiful and peaceful.
In my next two posts, I’ll show you even more of Budapest.
So stay tuned!
