The best partner for hitting the pavement!

Finally, a taste of real winter here! Plain cities like this one in Romania get less and less powdered with the white stuff year by year 😔.

The "magic" of Christmas is a bit late. But anyway - it's good - it's more wintery than most of the previous winters ❄️🤘

Paying a visit to relatives and friends who are no longer among us. Every evening on November 1st, our local Christian cemeteries become surreally comforting, illuminated by the glow of thousands of red and white candles lit by loved ones.

Wake me up when spring will come

Chill time for some nutrias, enjoying a lovely summer evening in our local river, in a former industrial area.

Not an everyday sight, but also nothing special for rural areas in Romania. Only three persons marvel and take pictures of this peaceful inter-species gathering, as you can notice :)

Overflowing geraniums proliferate in a sunny, socialist-era balcony. Well, the flowers are actually Pelargonium 🙂.

Preparations for the next winter. In some mountain areas, central heating for old apartments is still non existent, so the inhabitants must resort to wood burning in stoves. The apartment building has a centralised exhaust (chimney) and each individual stove is connected to it.

An unfair and irrelevant comparison of heights: the Church, the University and the private propriety. A mirrored image of the reality.

This image is quite a heavy crop from the original picture, but with a little Snapseed I think I pulled a decent-looking satellite.

The turquoise glow after sunset, visible mostly on clear summer... days?/nights? . Literally last rays of light, the afterglow of what was a summer's day.

Translucent ears

A derelict country house with original furnishing still in; apparently it was inhabited until august 1999.

Snail eyes in the sky. View from a random window of a new maternity ward in town.

The last sunset in April.

It's not enough nor easy to be rich, you have to show it to your enemies.
