Only in Hungary! 🇭🇺❤️ A quick trip to the OTP Bank ATM, dressed in a pink dressing gown, pyjama trousers and slippers. Walking stick in one hand, serious banking business on the agenda. Why waste time getting dressed when all you need is a little cash? OTP Bank. Banking so convenient, you don't even have to get out of your pyjamas. 😂 #Hungary #StreetPhotography #EverydayLife #OnlyInHungary #OTPBank

Two pigeons perch on a wooden barrel beside a weighing scale and weights at the entrance to a wine bar in the Dorsoduro district in Venice, Italy. A handwritten sign reading "DRINKS 2 GO" advertises takeaway drinks.

Budapest in the rain, with a passing tram pulling colour across the frame. On nights like this, it’s worth staying out a little longer, watching how the reflections change and deciding what to let move. That’s something I love sharing on my Budapest workshops: taking time with a place until you begin to see your own photograph. #budapest #leica #photography #workshop

Nagyrév, Hungary. Where silence holds a century of stories. Inside the village's Reformed church, time seems to move at a different pace. The wooden pews, the pale light through the windows, the stillness of a place that has witnessed generations of ordinary lives and extraordinary events. I have returned to Nagyrév to continue a documentary project that is becoming increasingly fascinating, and far more complex than I first imagined. Some places reveal their stories immediately. Others ask you to listen, to look more carefully, and to spend time understanding what lies beneath the surface. Nagyrév is one of those places. For now, I am listening, researching, photographing, and slowly putting the pieces together. Some stories deserve patience before they are told. #Nagyrév #Hungary #DocumentaryPhotography #BlackAndWhitePhotography #VisualStorytelling #PhotographyProject
