Sibiu offers a lot of sights, besides the wonderful cafes and restaurants. So, before going to ARTMania concerts we tried to see a bit of the nice museums and sights in Siibiu, and also ASTRA open-air museum. For people interested…
I wanted to visit Sibiu for a long time, yet I never got the chance to spend a few days in this lovely city. However, as this year we decided to attend ARTMania which happens in Sibiu, it was a…
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…
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.
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.
A friend and colleague of mine – Bianca (biancabardas.com) – who is also passionate about photography had a great idea of a photo project. Each month (relatively speaking – we are already somewhat late) we should choose a theme and…
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…
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 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…
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…
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…
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…
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…
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…
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…
I have finally decided to put a serious gallery plugin on this blog. Right now my photos are lost among a lot of posts, and I have no way to offer a professional look to my photography. After watching in…
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…
Photographs from Kyoto and Tokyo. This is the last part of the selection I made. After we visited Hiroshima and Osaka, it was finally time to return to Tokyo and back home.
Photos from Hiroshima and the Golden Pagoda in Kyoto. Do not worry – photo upload is almost over. i had to extend my Google Picasa storage space, and I skipped around 80% of the photos I took, but hopefully I…
Today’s post has some photos from Kyoto. This was the second city we visited, and we soon went to the imperial palace and gardens. Also included are some pictures from Kyoto at night, and the colorful light show done at…
