Street Musicians – Real Artists

Such a wonderful day!
Well the weather … was ok … not more …  no sunshine … but no rain … so just cope … I took a nice walk … passed the Spinoza café and ended up in Déak Tér … sat on a sofa and read my Carol Oates … and suddenly that happy rocky music …

these artists
so easy to fall in love with
I’m happily shooting

… in Rockabilly style. Now … afterwards … I regret I didn’t give any money … totally forgot when shooting … I use to give to artists … but never to beggars … not to passivity not to alcoholics … only to creativity …

Last time

Last time in Budapest I didn’t bring my Canon EOS … only my G12 and of course my iPhone. It was more of poetry in my head than photography and it was and still are … a very dull time for shooting I think. I don’t like autumn and winter. I only like spring and summer when I can dress less and enjoy sun and light … the blue sky. So I long so much …

The Weakest Strength

First I must say – Kristjaan – Host of Carpe Diem – You are fantastic! This journey you bring us on is amazing. Music and poetry goes very well along and you put such an effort in this – I would never have known about so many talanted female composers if not for you. You are my HERO of December – Just saying!!!!!

Now – just at home after visiting an art auction and passing through the greatest Christmas Market in Budapest – …. oh so many new experiences … !!! – I sit down and turn on the music – and the first feeling I get is – this touches my soul!

And in the other end – of cyber – my granddaughter – she just sent a new song -she recorded- to me. She sings and play the guitar and the piano. So lovely!

My senses are overwhelmed – and I love it!

with music
comes the strongest weakness

with music
comes the weakest strength

I like when contrasts meet. It’s challenging and exciting. And a great start for ….
