Asphalt Tango

One interesting (and photogenic) thing at the “urban festival” on Mătăsari street was the people dancing tango on the street and wearing street clothes. Not many, but not very few either.

Hipstering on Mătăsari street

With the history and tradition of the Mătăsari street, one linked with sex and prostitution, having an “urban festival” called “at women on Mătăsari” (“la femei pe Mătăsari”) was challenging, and it gathered, as expected, a bunch of people considering themselves “cool” and “edgy”.

Water fight

A hot, scorching summer day, is a perfect day for a water fight:


I had low expectations and they were fulfilled: a bunch of kids running chaotically and throwing water left, fight, front and back.

Basarab passage opening

After much debates and delays, the Basarab passage in Bucharest opened at last! …good opportunity for the current mayor to shamelessly assume the merits, but I digress, this is not a politics blog, we are here to share some photos from the passage opening.

So it was a parade, the parade was not all about beautiful girls, there were also uniforms:

And bikers with their mighty bikes:

And old cars:

And, of course, a lot of beautiful girls:

And cheerleaders:

And don’t forget the virtual kisses:

Now the next step? Curse the traffic on the passage, of course!

Ana Bella in the park

In the park, shooting for a portraiture project I will talk more at a later date, we had the time for some general shoots too, in the very summer style: roses, vaporous dresses, green:
