Still posting stuff from last year... Just a few more pictures to show and I can fully be in the present. Today I`m going to show off two pictures of Diana, a good friend of mine who was supposed to shake off the camera shyness by now ... but that hasn`t ...
I`m writing this entry hoping that it will cheer everybody up including yours truly. The past two weeks have been like Purgatory and Hell. The worst part is that "it ain`t over yet". The good part is: "only two more weeks to go". I`ve been shooting to much with my Leica ...
I mixed some of the films and I`m to lazy to fix that now. This roll was supposed to go before the one with Cosmin. This concert took place at the Romanian Cultural Institute and was part of Harry Tavitian`s Teach me Tonight series, and had the sole purpose of ...
I dedicated 12/12/2009 to the Help Portrait movement. -basically you take your camera and use it to put a smile on someones face. Take their picture, print it and deliver it. No strings attached. Out of everybody Cosmin moved me the most...
One day I get a call from a friend asking me if I was available for a 3h shooting at a beauty salon. I said yes, even though I had no idea of the conditions I was walking in on. We set up a meeting to find out more about the ...
Yes, I`ve done it! Here they are. Not so impressive now that I got a good look at them but, hey, as long as they`re done I might as well post them. These are all resizes to fit 1200px on the long side (that means that you can click on them ...
As I said a long time ago, this entry`s purpose is to shine some light on some of the lesser photos of my Portugal trip. Out of ~900 pictures (not counting the panoramas and the HDRs) I chose to show you 25, but there were ~60-70 pictures selected to ...
Or Lisboa, as they spell it. I chose to celebrate my 23 birthday in Lisbon because Jo was there for studies and I thought "why not?". The target was "travel light" so I did! My backpack had my D200 + just 2 lenses (11-16/2.8 and the 50mm/1.4 AF-S), 6 t-shirts, ...
The one with the fashion show... The winter ski collection by Stephan Pelger (first picture) for Vuarnet. And the bus-stop... This bus-stop is point A in my A-B trip from the University to the warmth of the couch. And yes, that`s everyday Bucharest...
Sept. 27 2010 - Jo`s Birthday. The first stop was Chez Marie Restaurant in the old part of town, where we celebrated with some relatives and a few close friends. Afterward we met with our colleagues at Oktoberfest to "smell" some beers. And some pictures with our friends...
This is one of those films that stays in the camera for weeks and you can`t really make it a "one subject roll". So I chose 6 pictures 5 of them taken in the studio where Alexandra Sandu is taking photos for the Daydreamers project and the first one is ...
2009.08.23 - The (Romanian) Wedding Day I wrote (Romanian) `cause they got married in The Netherlands prior to this event. Coen is Dutch and Andreea ... well you guessed - Romanian. They decided that a wedding done by our customs will be a ...
And, with almost 11 days overdue, I present to you the Netherlands entry. We took the Thalys train from Paris with the destination: Rotterdam. "Lucky" for us, they were working on the railroads those days so we hopped of at Utrecht, then we took a train straight to Hague...
After almost "4 days overdue" according to my "To do" software, I get to show you the 2nd part of our summer trip - Normandy. And to be precise: we stayed in the west part of it. This blog-entry will be split into seven parts because it was the simplest way ...
The whole idea is based on the fact that 2-3 days after the assignment you`re still attached emotionally of your pictures. Thus, the more you let them sit unattended, the more distant you become of them. And by the time you decide to work on them you`ll analyze them with ...
Are you bored yet? This is the 9th roll of film shot with the M6 (like you haven`t figured that out already). Being a "one week roll" (as in: a bunch of pictures that don`t relate) I don`t have much to say about the 36 frames as a whole, so I`ll just ...
This roll traveled with me to Bacau and to Bîrlad at my grandpartens. First two frames, yours truly and Romeo Tomescu. This guy has so many blogs / portfolios that I had trouble finding one that suits him. My gran`pa in probably the best pictures I`ve took of him ...
Catalina gave me this film. She said "have fun trying this one". I had no clue about how it works. (The fun part about this type of film is that "it has no predetermined ASA". Just select the ASA you want and be careful to develop accordingly when you get ...
So, today I`ll show you only 13 images from the 6th roll, because only these are mine. The rest of 23 ... let`s just say I don`t want to look good with other people`s photographs taken with my camera. : ) Moreover ... starting from now I`ll be using ...
This is the last roll exposed at the concert. Well half-roll sounds better, because I finished it the next day. The "genius" in me opened the camera to take out the roll but I forgot I had to rewind everything back to the cartridge. Thus the vertical pattern is ...
