The Little Princess

The Little Princess is a lovely little statue by László Marton on the Danube, erected in 1989.

The Little Princess is a cute little statue by László Marton on the Danube, erected in 1989.
It must the most photographed object in Budapest. It was very difficult to get the exposure of the 4 seconds I needed without somebody running up to pose next to it or another flash going off. Taken from the other side of the statue, you can position the statue with Castle Hill in the background but I found that too distracting; I prefer this much calmer background.

I corrected the suggested exposure of this photo by -2 to arrive at the correct exposure.

Camera: Pentax *ist DS, lens: Sigma 18-50mm F2.8 EX DC MACRO
