Dreams Abandoned
You can find some pictures I have taken at various places in Connecticut, Newy York State and Massachusetts.
These are "used to be" places, like the Chase Brass Mill in Waterbury, that is almost all empty now and ready for demolition.
It was a huge complex with thousand of people working in it, trains comming and going all day bringing raw materials and carrying away the products made at the factory. It used to have a huge underground cafeteria that was connected to all the other buildings.
With most of our industrial production moving out of this country, this place is just a ghost of its former glory.

Dreams still alive
I was born in Hungary in 1947 and stayed there for the next 25 years. Sailing to the west in 1972 and settling first in the Big Apple than a few years later in Cornwall Bridge, Connecticut.I got my first camera ( kind of Russian version of Kodak box) at age ten and ever since taking pictures. Graduating to digital at the year 2000 and never looked back.
Currently using Sigma SD14, Nikon D700 and Fuji X-E1 cameras.

I love to take pictures at Civil War reenactments
You can see a Photodex slideshow here:http://lazlo.us/slideshows/civil_war.html
My main interest are in portraits. Like candid shots, they reveal much more of people than the posed ones
My pictures received numerous national (New England Camera Club Council, Photographic Society of America ) and international awards.
