Hands on samples with the new Fuji X-Pro 1
I think planets aligned somehow and in less than a week I put my hands on two great and expected cameras: the Nikon D4 (link here and here) and the new Fuji X-Pro 1. I had less time with the Fuji and I just snapped some hi ISO samples in a very dark room. It was kept this way because the audience wanted to try it in low light condition. The camera ( a pre-release model as with the Nikon D4) came in a nice metal suitcase together with...
Discover Romania – ep. 6
I wanted this year not to miss the “autumn colors” in the Romanian mountains, but somehow (mainly because we were cold during those days) we managed to miss the trip to the mountains when the colors were at their peak (late October). But, things were not completely lost and when our friend from Madrid announced us of their visit to Romania, we knew that we will get them in the mountains to do the trip we already wanted to...
Discover Romania – ep. 5
August was the month of our holiday this year. In the past few years we had all of our holidays outside Romania, in other countries. This year, we chose to travel one more time by car in a tour inside our beautiful country (we did same thing last time when we bought a new car in 2005). And so, because we had once again a new car (the Sonata we bought couple of months ago), we chose to visit some places we’ve never been to...
Discover Romania – ep. 4
This time, I will show you some unique natural phenomenon for the entire Europe. These are the mud volcanoes. The term mud volcano or mud dome are used to refer to formations created by geo-excreted liquids and gases, although there are several different processes which may cause such activity. Hot water mixes with mud and surface deposits. They can be found near Berca, Buzau county, Romania ...
Discover Romania – ep. 3
The Danube Delta is the second largest river delta in Europe, after the Volga Delta, and is the best preserved on the continent. I’ve been several times to visit the Delta and every time I found “her” very wild. A land of “World Heritage Sites”, it remained this way because of the harsh conditions for living. These days you can find modest conditions for accommodation, but it’s best to go sleep in...
Discover Romania – ep. 2
Since the first episode was about the greatest driving road in the world (as car show TopGear said it loud and clear), this second episode is still about a road that we have it here in Romania. It’s the DN 7c, also known as Transalpina. It is reaching higher peaks than Transfagarasanu road, it’s even more spectacular, but until now was very hard to reach and use, since there was little to no asphalt. We crossed it our...
Discover Romania – ep. 1
Because I’ve traveled a lot in the past and I still enjoy travelling, and also because a lot of foreign friends are asking me to do so, I’ve decided to post some photos from the tourist destinations here in Romania. I will post only photos and no travel directions, just to stir you up. In case someone is interested, I will provide as much as I can information about how to reach these zones, over email or in the comment...
