All colour images are also available as black & white prints. The b&w previews offered here are produced by simply desaturating the image via Javascript. The result is a neutral b&w preview which may appear flat or too dark/bright. Before printing, however, each image is individually assessed and adjusted for best contrast, tonal quality, and dynamic range.

Vajdahunyad Castle, or Vajdahunyad vára, is a castle in the City Park in Budapest. It was built between 1896 and 1908 after plans by Ignác Alpár. In part it is a copy of a castle in Transylvania that is also called Vajdahunyad. It combines various architectural styles from the Hungarian history ranging from Roman over Gothic and Renaissance to Baroque and Rokoko.
