Everywhere magic

It looks like magic is everywhere: anywhere I turn, it seems I find some.

A walk in the forest

The forest is beautiful in the autumn, its roads are covered in warmly colored fallen leaves. A delightful place for a walk.

Transfagarasan

After enjoying a few weeks before Transalpina, which is the highest road in Romania, next in line was Transfăgărășan, which, according to some is the most amazing road in the world. It was not my first time here, I crossed it once before, but that happened in a rainy and cloudy day when I was on foot, on a mountain trip.

Everything is better at the golden hour?

There is a thought, supposedly anything you shoot at the golden hour looks better (beautiful?), so I want to test this hypothesis. True or false?

She said she was charmed by the beautiful flowers which brought her is a dreamy state, it is probably so since the blossom was beautiful and the light almost perfect.

Hanami

Yesterday the Japanese cherry tree blossom (sakura) was probably at its best for this season in Bucharest: lots of flowers, beautiful sunlight, warm weather – anything you wanted from it.

And if everything was perfect, people were there watching and enjoying (Hanami is the traditional Japanese custom of viewing the tree blossom).

Old photo, new edit

I needed a pictures with water drops for a little photo contest among a small group of friends, this is what I tool the roses, skin and water drops series, but unfortunately I had some publishing restrictions suddenly appearing on it, with no time for new pics, there is a “plan B” to activate: get an old pic and make the best of it for the contest. So here’s the old pic with today’s editing:

water drops

And if curious, the old version from about 3 years ago when I was a newbie photographer with beginner’s gear and a lot less editing experience:

However, I expect some (trolling or not) to prefer the older version (these days I am reading a book about “extreme” editing makeover, so is not impossible I went overboard or was misguided).

Spring/Snowdrops

After I bored everybody with my Indian adventures, is probably the time to breath a bit and celebrate the spring – those little fellows, snowdrops from my garden, appeared a couple of months ago, in the middle of the winter, but the snow buried them. Now they are alive and kicking (well, not exactly those, the flowers in the image were cut and offered as a present, but there are some more in the garden).

Indian wedding: the shine

Is a long process for the bride to make herself beautiful but the result is showing, after all the preparations (make-up, hair style, clothes, jewelry) she was really shining.

Indian wedding: beautification

The ceremony happened to the bride’s home so it and the reception after was organised by her family. Two days later it was followed by another reception, this time at the groom’s place, organized by his family. Here’s the bride making herself beautiful for the reception:

Indian wedding: the beauty

Anywhere a wedding happens, may it be India, Europe, the Americas, no matter where, there is a thing in common: the very center of the ceremony is the bride and her beauty. So was the case here too, we had a beautiful bride, with a beautiful dress, in a beautiful location.

It is a beautiful day outside: snow still fresh, bright sun and clear air (is cold), so when I had some errands outside (to print a few indian cosplay pics, incidentally), I couldn’t resist taking a few snaps. Until my fingers got almost frozen on the camera and then I was happy to return to the warmth of the office :). Anyway, as you can see, Bucharest is flooded in snow, but we are still alive:

Light painting the city for Chrstmas

If the first time was a quick work with hand held camera, this time, despite the atrocious freezing cold the pics came, I think, a bit better.
