colorful Sibiu
Slow day photo wise, but I did find a very nice image I took in Sibiu. I really enjoyed the beautiful colors of the buildings -I am not used to see houses painted so full of colors in Romania.

goodbye to summer
Officially the summer is over since September 1st. However, only today really feels like autumn is here. Rain – clouds – sleeping late – umbrellas. Yet the biggest change is that weekends no longer mean going to the seaside. Probably…
Granada and Alhambra
I think Spain is one of the greatest places to visit – and it can offer photographic gems for several trips. While I have in the past visited Madrid, Toledo, Aranjuez, Barcelona and a few other places, until this summer…

Maldives – where it’s always sunny
In Maldives the average temperature is 30 degrees Celsius, and the winters are not that different from summers. Rains? I think they do happen once in a blue moon. The people do say that the sea can get rough, and…
spicy India
Every time I browse these photos I remember fondly the delicious food from India. From yummy vegetarian food to different curries, everything is so tasty.
India – photos from Goa
I took so many photos in India, that probably this year I will continue to post photo albums from time to time. These were taken mostly in Goa.
the post with monkeys
It seems the little guys are a big attraction for friends and so I think they deserve a post only for them. The monkey temple in Jaipur has a few very funny and expressive little guys, who are a joy…
around Jaipur
Besides Amber fort, Jaipur has a lot of other places to visit. Even a simple stroll in the markets can provide a lot of photo opportunities. And visiting the city palace, the astronomical (or astrological) observatory, the monkey and sun…
Jaipur – the Amber fort
Jaipur is the third part of the classic “golden triangle”of travel in India. Together with Delhi and Agra (the place where the famous Taj Mahal is located) Jaipur offers the best introduction to India. Like all first timers in India, I…
Taj Mahal and Agra
India for a lot of travelers means Delhi – Agra – Jaipur. And for a first visit to India, that’s how I started. After the crazy streets of Delhi I moved to Agra – and visited the main attraction there…
streets and sights of Delhi
From street sellers to construction workers, barbers and tuk-tuk drivers and people of all imaginable faiths Delhi is an amazing show. I wished for a camera that could record every angle, every second, every face and every situation. Didn’t have…
faces of India
India proved to be a magic land. Once I stopped focusing on the poverty, touts and the utter chaos I started to appreciate this land. In almost 3 weeks I took a lot of photos, which as usual will take…
magic Japan – a photo tribute
Seeing the destruction and chaos that now rules Japan I started to browse my photo collection from last year. This country left such a nice impression that I wanted to lessen the shock caused by today’s events. I really am…
the bicycle obsession
Do all photographers have a pet obsession? Your cat maybe? Or interesting windows? Or – i think this is a phase in every female photog life – pictures of the feet. After a few tens of thousands of photos I…
remember Mexico
Because I started doing some homework – processing old photos, selecting the good and discarding the chaff, and so on – I started to get little folders of newly processed photos. Some of these were already published here, but now…
digital nomad – a talk at radio Lynx
This is an older talk I had at radio Lynx – Romanian online radio – which I didn’t find the time to post here. The information is pretty basic, but some of the ideas might prove interesting even to seasoned…
