Kumm in concert
A few days ago i’ve seen in concert one of my favourite romanian rock bands – Kumm. They will release a new record (Different Parties) this week-end, and you have to check out their new website. It’s “cool”.
Sorry for not being so active lately – i’ve been busy with my new home, and I’m not “plugged” yet to the Internet. Let’s hope I will have my home connection next week.
One more thing, TIFF is very close now – it starts this week-end in my hometown – Cluj-Napoca. So, I’ll be there!
After the rain
Image taken in Politehnica, Bucarest, late in the afternoon. Shot in the same day with this one.
Lucky me!
Sometimes I try to capture something, and when I look at the result, I have a surprise. A pleasant one.
I think I was lucky with this one.
update: This is Marius Chivu, from DILEMATECA, a brand new (monthly) magazine about books.
Break dance
Last weekend i’ve checked out the first romanian Write4Gold event, in Herastrau Park, Bucharest.
Everybody was into “tha hip-hop thing”, except this solitaire break-dancer, the most vivid person in the area, except a few noizy drunkers.
Sounds from a wedding
A few days ago one of my colleagues from radio was honoured with a wife. And, as you know, such an event is nothing without music, so please allow me to introduce … the accordion player!
Time out
This week-end, the graphers gathered in Herastrau park, Bucharest. A sunny day can give you energy, or it can take you down!
Fortunately, not everybody at the event was so lazy, as you’ll see in my next images, or in the previous one.
Write4Gold Romania 2006
Today some of the most talented grapherz competed in the first romanian Write4Gold event. The battlefield was Herastrau parc, Bucharest.
More to come next days. Stay painted! Or … graphed!
Luna amara in concert part II
Same location, (Underworld Club, Bucharest), same concert (earlier this month), same band from Cluj Napoca: Luna Amara.
One of their songs is called “Rosu aprins” (“Red”). Despite the track is five years old, almost as old as the band, it happens to me constantly to sing it (in my mind, of course!).
“Red” could be a good title for this image too.
Edgar
Usually my friends are not subject for my photoblog, but we like to break the rules sometimes!
So here it is – Edgar. Don’t worry, he’s not so sad all the time!
Reflected office building II
Office building in Eroilor Square, Bucharest, as i’ve seen it today yesterday reflected in the Dambovita river. Episode II.

Of course, the image is flipped, and there are no photoshop effects, except saturation and contrast.
Blonde little girl
In this coloured playground the kids were absolutely fascinated! None of them noticed that I was there with my camera.
Shot a few weeks ago, in Cismigiu Garden, Bucharest.
Luna amara in concert
A couple of days ago, rock band Luna Amara played at Underworld, Bucharest, to promote their second album – Loc lipsa.
Great show, with the “hardest working band” from Romania. Listen to their songs, and wake up!
Motherboards meeting
With so many motherboards gathered at CERF, fatherboards were left feeling alone (if there were such things like fatherboards)!
Arthur Verona Street, Episode III
I’m back with another image (the last one I think) from the “Verona Street Episode”. I must say I’ve spent one special and most effervescent hour there …
This is the house entrance where I shot my previous photo.
Standing still
I took part in some sort of urban event here in Bucharest this weekend (May 5-6). Two days,  Verona street was restricted area for cars, but opened for public. There were exhibitions, concerts and, most interesting, people could actually get in and visit the houses on Verona street … which i did, of course accompanied by my camera.
So, there I was, with one of my colleagues, waiting patiently during my attempts to catch a good exposure.
A house from other times
Yesterday I’ve been invited to someone’s flat (near Cismigiu Garden, Bucharest), filled with old furniture, rare books, and the music from “Le fabuleux destin d’Amelie Poulain”. You must see the movie!
Gigabyte is naked!
There comes a time in every man’s life when he sees a naked girl. In public!
CERF 2006, Bucharest.
Sistem
This week i’ve interviewed one of the romanian bands who will open the Depeche Mode concert, in Bucharest, on June 23 – Sistem. This photo is taken before the interview. As you can see, percussion is their speciality.
If my information is correct, Romania is the only country in wich a local band will warm up the crowds before the stars: Depeche Mode.
Room with a view
I’ve visited some good friends these days. They live in an old building, near Rosetti Square, Bucharest.
