  3. Budapest, 1973. This photo of a window cleaner comes close to what the great photographer, Henri Cartier-Bresson's described as the "decisive moment" - that precise, but fleeting moment, when the visual and emotional elements of a scene come together for just a moment, before vanishing for ever. Kereki took a couple more photos of this scene (numbers 205247 and 205248 in the Fortepan archive), but it is the look on the window cleaner's face and his outstretched arm at this precise moment that really make this photo.

  8. Hungary, 1974. Another fine portrait photo from the Fortepan archives. There is often a serenity about the elderly, as if hurrying is no longer of any use. It never was, but somehow as we age, we realise this more and more. (The sign on the tree says there is a toilet next to the restaurant.)

  9. Hajdúszoboszló, 1969. Hajdúszoboszló is a town in eastern Hungary famed for its thermal waters. Today there are huge pool and hotel complexes for the thousands of annual visitors. Back in 1969 this particular building, owned by the National Council of Trade Unions, was known as the "Peace Health Resort".
