Memories of Summers

Castle Hill, Budapest, Hungary  © Doug Hickok

This week I have presented warm pictures for your enjoyment, mostly from summers past. This picture I remember well, because I made it in Budapest on one of the hottest days of that year. The hot sun heats up the warm colors on the facade of this historic house on Castle Hill... lots of yellow and orange, with a little splash of green and blue.

One day soon, summer will come again.

  1. It's almost summer here this week. Way too hot for mid-March... Lovely colours in Eastern European countries, love the details.

  3. This photo could have been shot in my town as well! Old houses have the same architecture. It happens that I'll be in Budapest on Saturday! My daughter is flying to Stockholm and we send her from the airport in Budapest, which is nearer that Bucharest.
