[Leica] IMG: Lake Balaton

[Nathan Wajsman]

Lake Balaton in Hungary is the largest lake in Central Europe. It was a popular tourist destination also during Communist times, especially for people from other Communist countries like Poland. Today it remains a popular destination for Hungarians (Hungary is landlocked, so the beaches around the lake’s 197 km coastline and those along the Danube river are the only beaches there) and for other Europeans. 

I spent 3 days in the coastal town Balatonfüred last week, about 150 km from Budapest. I was there for work, but of course there was enough free time in the morning, and on the last day, to explore the area. As usual when I travel, I also visited a nice art exhibition, featuring work by local painter József Egry with whose work I was not familiar, but I liked it very much. The resulting gallery can be seen here:

And as always, comments and critique are welcome and appreciated.
