Sans Titre

After the collapse of communism, pollution in Eastern countries became a global concern. I discussed it with Figaro Magazine, who offered to send me to Copșa Mică, Romania, one of the most polluted cities in the world. I arrived on site after crossing the Carpathians in Dacia. The streets were covered with black soot. So were the sheep, and the children leaving school. It was snack time. The city was covered with black smoke and a toxic substance released by the zinc factories. The companies said it was all harmless, and everybody went about like everything was fine, hanging their laundry and planting their gardens.

same. i promise i teared up a little….

I don’t have a lot of time right now, but I have lots of stuff to post and write about. I was foolish enough to buy a M Monochrom and boy it’s quite a body. Not for everyone, for sure, but quite spectacular, imho. I’ll post a quick hands on and a few pics this week. For those who don’t work this week-end, enjoy. For those who work, like me: courage! :-)
