I too am positively impressed by this work. At first I thought it was going to be just another all too familiar east European post-communist angst piece, especially when I saw the crows, and I thought “cue Imants,” but at #7 I thought the essay totally changed, or perhaps truly started, and from there I found it much more universal. It certainly didn’t differ much from what one could find in the American midwest. Of course you would have to find it and the prerequisite for that would be having the point of view and aesthetic sensibility to find it. That, on top of the great technical quality, is the strength of this work.

On that note, I’m a bit surprised that no one has commented on the technical quality. After so much circular discussion on camera phones and two dollar apps, I found it kind of refreshing to see a deep vision well-realized with a much larger format capture. Would these same photos work, or work as well, had they been captured with a tiny sensor?

This is a delightfull essay for which I pay my respect to the photographer. Apart for some great photographs, the whole constructs a narrative that leaves pleanty of space to the viewers to add their own meaning. An essay worth depeloping further.

Here, anywhere, that’s quite correct.. anywhere will look slightly different from one place to the next, the more farther we go from ‘here’ the more it will be different.. but key in all this is to capture this ‘here’ or anywhere..

Nicely done, thank you, Tamas!

I always liked “these types of forgotten spaces occuring in most any city or town and that we have all seen”. It makes it all the harder to pull an original essay with some authoring about it, so that our feeling is that of going beyond mere recognition of such spaces, but being led by Tamas for an esthetic experience, and a discovery of his newest intents.

Well done, Tamas!

There are some really nice images here but the statement is a bunch of artistic mumbo jumbo. Example: “but their co-existence in time is only apparent” It is not apparent. They ARE coexisting in time.

I would venture to guess that these types of forgotten spaces occur in most any city or town. We have all seen them.

I bet these would be more interesting if they where printed big and hanging in a gallery.

OH…. And I told everyone he would be back… LOL. Tantrum is over I see.

Eye candy indeed.

I love the very formal compositions, the minimalist colour. Beautiful beautiful stuff. It almost feels like these are illustrations from an old book of fairy tales.

I’m just curious to know what Ringo Star was doing in Hungary.

in film, your brothers: Tarkovsky, Jancso, Angelopolus, Wadja, Kieslowski, Erice, Reygadas, Bela Tarr……

in literature, your brothers: Kertesz, Nadas, Krasznahorkai, Esterhazy

in pictures, your brothers: the sound of wind in the cavern of trees, the limbs of the filds, the seas in the emptied buildings and churches….

when i arrived at the 2nd last picture, i literally felt a body blow, and exhilation, the shock and then, quietly, i said: ecce homo…..

the essay: sublime

itt vagyunk…..
