  The Moon overlooking the city at night:

Almost at it's peak, the eclipse gave the moon a bright red color
  PS: I hope 4 years from now I'll have a telephoto with me :)
       Just a glimpse of the ceremony from Bacau, last Saturday night. Didn't stay out too long, it was shivering cold. I did managed to bring the burning candle back home, though :)

Priests spreading The Light to the people at midnight

Hundreds of people walking alongside the priests, preparing for the sermon

The Holy Light
 
      Bacău celebrated Earth Hour with a small public display on "Tricolorului Square" Saturday night, 26th of March, 2011. There was a nice act put together by "In The Spot", a local artist's group and, of course, we've switched off at half past eight PM.
      More on Earth Hour here.

Beginning of the show

Lights out!

  Peeking through the fence of an old soccer field at sunset. Pretty desolated. I hate winter!

  Yay, a new year awaits us! And a blistering cold one to begin with. I went outside yesterday night to shoot something snowy but nothing really came up. On one hand because, well, I wasn't able to find something worth capturing and on the other hand, I almost froze my ass out, trying to find a subject. So I shot this one on my way back home. Nothing special, I just like the deserted feel of it.



   Astazi dimineata a avut loc o puternica explozie intr-un bloc de locatari de pe strada Martir Horia, Bacau. Din cate am inteles este vorba de o acumulare de gaze care a produs intreaga explozie. Doua persoane au ajuns in stare grava la spital. Din fericire nimeni nu a decedat insa pagubele sunt enorme. Abia m-am intors de acolo si, avand in vedere ca au trecut cateva ore bune de la deflagratie, inca se simte un miros innecacios pe toata aria accidentului. 







     On my way Răcăciuni, some couple of days ago, I passed by this district heating power plant, operating at its full capacity. I stopped the car near the road and snapped some photos away, cause I thought that backlit steam cloud would make a good picture. I was right :)


    Oh, and by the way, that's not pollution, that's just water steam blowing off. But people like calling it that way, it's more catchy :)

I'm not a morning person but I love early mornings! Sun is shining just inches above the horizon, there's no traffic, people are all numb and grumpy, everybody's minding their own business on their way to work and everything seems at a slower pace. And, of course, the light! The light it's so much better than the rest of the day! ... if I just wouldn't be such a lazy sloth...
