Out for an Afternoon Stroll

Photos are available of the St. Stephen Basilica so I won't bore you with that. Instead, here are a couple of photos of the more mundane areas: like the side of the basilica. Enlarged, the photo reveals these iron figures along the rail. Details that enhanced but are missing from modern structures. This picture was taken from the entrance of the church under the basilica. I peaked in to see if a good angle was available and the guard invited me in to take a balanced shot. Lovely surprise.

Very beautiful iron work and the iron lanterns are wonderful. The interior shot is gorgeous. You were lucky the guard let you take a picture, even invited you to get a shot. Cheers!

You have to know Hungarians to know how special that invitation was. :) He was a charming old timer. Thank you for visiting and leaving a comment.

:) Perhaps. I've left the house without make up before, but never without a scent.
