Hungary, facts in brief
Hungary, history in brief
Budapest, facts and history in brief

Although I lived in New Zealand almost since the brutal
suppression of the 1956 Hungarian Revolution and Hui
Chin, my wife came from Singapore, both our families
live in Hungary and Singapore respectively.
We are fortunate enough, to be helped to see our relations
by the generosity of the ones that can afford to help
us to travel to visit them regularly and see a few other
places during our travels.
You can see hundreds of my photos from the places we
were lucky enough to visit.
I will slowly upload some more of my photos of our travels.
Prior to 1999 I was using a Olympus Pen EE-3 35mm/half
frame camera, for economy and travelling convenience,
these photos have to be scanned before I can upload
them.
They suffer a fair amount of quality loss after scanning,
because they are on 'stipple' paper.
Some of the photos also loose quality, because of the
jpg conversion.
I usually have my export conversion set at 50% to save
on the size of the file and the uploading time.
It's hard to tell the right compression rate before
I put them on the net, then it's too late.
Then again, you all know that. Don't you?
