Our friend and yours, Daniel McCord, recently traveled to Budapest. He returned to the States with a hard drive full of photos. We asked Daniel to compile some of his favorites so we could highlight them on the blog.
In these photos, Daniel shies away from taking too many "postcard" photos of old buildings, though some of those shots are too pretty to pass up, and instead he focuses his camera on the culture, people, and food of Budapest. It's these photos that first attracted us to his collection and we are very pleased he let us show off some of his work.
