<p>Back to Budapest now! In the evening we were surprised to see a market in the walkway overlooking the Danube, the Danube Promenade (Dunakorzó), round the corner from our hotel. Some of the things we saw were very tempting, and in fact, Tim bought me a necklace there for my birthday!</p>

<p>This was an experiment. <br />
<br />
Lesson learnt: Though Portra 800 should be overexposed one stop by day to control the grain, it may be better to expose it exactly at the box value by night, especially if there are bright highlights in the scene. These may otherwise lead to ugly red halation. I learnt that here - the hard way. <br />
