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 taken in the old part of Bucharest (on the way to the studio).

The guy in the 2nd and 5th picture is the photographer Alexandru Matusciac.

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 there because the film got overexposed for 2-3 seconds while he was rolled in the right part of the camera. And I lost 5 frames because of processing error.

So, to cut this one short. The first 17 frames are exposed at the concert.

The next 5 were taken later that night at Oana`s birthday. In the pictures you can see Musi and Dragos.

And the following day we went to celebrate another year of success with some of the people that helped BestFest festival run smoothly @ El Grande Comandante club. The one standing in front of the laptop is Ionut Tunaru, the volunteer coordinator.

And in the last frame we have Alex Matusciac and the quote “I hope you`re taking a nice picture!”
