    New Site and Just Sweden

    As you can see, I have finally launched myself a real website which will stay updated with my latest work. I have started with Just Sweden as my  main theme because I just can’t stop being impressed by this country. Coming from Romania and Italy, both of which are definitely beautiful countries, it may seem weird. But the fact is that I feel […]

  • A freezing North Sea kiss

    A freezing North Sea kiss

    As strangely as it sounds, until a week ago, we haven’t been able to see and taste the Northern Sea. We’ve heard is spectacular, and most important, really, really cold. Since we had no idea about where to go see it, we randomly chose a road that goes as close as possible to the shore. […]

  • PRESENT – The Will to Change the World

    PRESENT – The Will to Change the World

    Everybody has the power to change the world… together. But extremely few have the will to do it. The will has to be motivated and educated and that takes time and requires good teachers. Most of us don’t really think that anything we will do, will actually make a difference. And we are all right. […]

  • TESLA

    TESLA

    Photographing cars and obtaining really good meaningful pictures it is a real pain. You need to met way to many conditions like the right lens, the right filters.  a lot of space space, perfect light etc. I mean, at least this is what I understand from the things I am reading. To create something with […]

  • The food was good…

    The food was good…

    Well…all started as a normal work-day, like any Friday. You do your job to the best of your abilities. You act honorable. You educate yourself into being serious, precised, organized and you always respect the other people because this is the only way you will fit. And you smile. Because that shows not only that […]

    Waiting in Källby Station

    Since I was a little too drunk to go home after a Friday night party, we took a cab and I left Tasha in the city. Next day, we have decided to take the train. We bought tickets from Internet and we went to the train station, which it happens to be exactly in front […]

  • Late November in Sweden

    Late November in Sweden

    My toy is working. And if it fails sometimes when on Shutter or Aperture Priority, it is working perfectly when it goes on Manual. They say a photographer knows exactly what he will get from his camera when he wants to shoot something. Clearly, I am not a photographer. I have no idea what  will […]

    50 hours after D90

    Well, today I have manged, finally, to shoot my first pictures that worth mentioning. Not too much and too often… But today I got lucky. A guy with a vintage yellowish (I hope not greenish…) car made my evening. Or the day. Depends of the perspective, since most of the day is in fact a […]

    40 Hours after D90

    Shooting pictures, not people, is fun. Noticing the fact that in 50% of the cases you get a totally different image than you were expecting, is a problem. Adjusting the rest of the pictures in Lightroom and not cleaning the green channel in a “supposedly sort of” monochrome picture is fatal, especially if you’re publishing […]

    30 hours after D90

    I have read everything, the manual, the instructions, including the Dangers Section. I was very careful not to punch my eye when adjusting the ocular and I have taken a few pictures, just to check how some settings are working. I even made a short video. Overall, this camera it is much more than I […]

  • My first serious camera EVER!

    My first serious camera EVER!

    I am so very happy that finally I managed to buy my first DSLR camera. After playing for 2 month’s with Bomi’s Canon 40D, I kinda fell in love with this… everything concerning semi-professional photography thingie. And in time, it became and obsession. I had to buy one in the end, or each month, when […]

  • Just Sweden

    I have heard heard so much about the beauty of Sweden… Still, I know from my experience that it is hard to imagine what that means. I kept searching for the best image possible to express not only the look, but also the feel – that incredible peace of mind this country, together with its […]

  • A soft day

    A soft day

    Lackö Castle was there, welcoming us in such a soft light. A good day for sudden shooting. Bigger images here —>

  • They live in the Mailbox

    They live in the Mailbox

    They live in my mailbox which they are considering it to be the safest place in the world. The chose to raise their children in there, teach them to fly, to hunt, to kill… I feel sad about being compelled to remove them and their future children by force. Could only the fear of a […]
