Doua poze de la manifestarile prilejuite de Ziua Nationala a Romaniei, in Bacau.

I still live...

   Desi fara entuziasmul de alta data, mai prind asa, foarte rar, cate o poza care-mi place.
Intr-o incercare de a resuscita blogul meu de fotografie postez acum doua poze din ultima saptamana care, mie mi s-a parut ca, au ceva de spus...

    Prima fotografie este facuta la Campionatul National Universitar de Box, care s-a desfasurat in perioada 26-28 noiembrie in Bacau. Mi-a placut aceasta poza dintr-o ratiune 100% subiectiva si nu vreau sa supar pe absolut nimeni dar, mi se pare ca este o imagine care reprezinta exact opusul a ceea ce cred si simt eu, (repet, personal), ca ar trebui sa fie sportul.

   Cea de-a doua imagine este facuta de "Ziua Portilor Deschise" organizata de Batalionul 630 Parasutisti "Smaranda Braescu" cu prilejul Zilei Nationale a Romaniei. Nu cred ca are nevoie de niciun comentariu si fiecare este liber s-o interpreteze cum vrea.

Rock it!

I really love these teens enjoying rock music. Few romanian bands performed last weekend during an annual festival called "Serbarile Timisoreana" in Bacau, Ro. I covered the event for the newspaper I work for, trying to catch the thrill of the audience. Everyone enjoyed the show, especially these wonderful youths.

2011 Romanian Boxing National Championship

Last week I photographed the boxers of the Romanian National Championship which was held in Bacau. This time I was focused more on the ring action side of the competition, rather than the off ring. I made a selection of what I considered the best shots I took at the competition. Hope you will like it.

Dana Popa

En: This week I had the privilege to meet Dana Popa, a documentary photographer, born in Bacau, Ro and now based in London, U.K. Her photographs were published in magazines around the world. Dana's work was shown in many international exhibitions and she got important photojournalism awards. How, she's working on great projects which she approach in a unique style. I recommend her website. It is very inspiring.

Ro: Saptamana aceasta am avut privilegiul s-o cunosc pe Dana Popa, fotograf documentar, nascuta in Bacau dar stabilita de mai multi ani in Londra. Fotografiile ei au aparut in multe publicatii importante din toata lumea. A participat la mai multe expozitii internationale de fotojurnalism si a luat si cateva premii. In prezent lucreaza la cateva proiecte de anvergura foarte interesante pe care le abordeaza intr-un stil propriu. Recomand sa urmariti web site-ul ei.

Airshow

En: Flotila 95 Aeriana Bacau(#95 Air Base, Bacau) celebrated its 91st anniversary, on july 2nd 2011, opening its gates for civilians. Military and sport pilots did a great show on the sky for the audience.

Ro: Flotila 95 Aeriana Bacau si-a sarbatorit sambata, 02 iulie 2011, 91 de ani de la infiintare, prilej cu care si-a deschis portile pentru bacauani carora le-a oferit un frumos spectacol aerian.

Animal Lover?

Diana Lucan(C), member of Animal Protection Association "Prieteni necuvantatori" and planner of the event, attends a flash-mob during the International Unowned Animals Day, in Bacau, Romania, april 4, 2011.

Do you find this lady(middle) an animal lover?...The decision of wearing a fur vest(authentic or unauthentic), to me, is at least an unhappy one. Especially at this event.
