Hi folx !
Been a while since I've posted something. While my camera is in Estonia due to Nikon's recall of D750 this year, I've started to process.
In short, my vacation this year was devided in two. First part was with my kids for the annual trips to the beloved amusement/zoo in Kristiansand (Norway) park followed by a trip to Lego Land in Denmark. As this vacation came to an end, I went on a vacation by myself, to my birth country Romania. So I will post some memories from this summer vacations.
To begin with, some shot from the beautiful country side, in the plains of the Carpathian mountains, west part of Romania. A place where you can find peace, breath clean air, enjoy real ecologic fruits and vegetable, wake up to green scenery every morning, listening to the sound of farm animals here and there. This is a real refugee for me. Unfortunately I did not managed to do everything I had in mind, since most of my time there was cloudy and rainy. It sabotaged my project a lot.
Enjoy
After an hour hike up the hill with my cousin and her daughter. It's been 7 years since last time I saw her.

What to expect hiking those hills. In the background you see Carpathian Mountain with huge deep forests

My view in the morning. Enjoying the coffee. The hill in front, is the hill I had to hike everyday with goats and sheep when I was just 11 years old

These valleys, where filled with hay stacks as these. Not so many anymore. The place is slowly going back to the nature as it's not that populated anymore.

This is the night sky you can enjoy. Every single clear night, this is your sky.

Thank you for posting these. It is great that you have such a wonderful outdoor experience that sadly too many of us do not. I looked at all four posts and like everything about them. Great.

Hi Ken , glad you like them. Yes I must admit I am lucky to still have the opportunity to go back to this places , and I guess my love for outdoor and hiking has it's roots from this place. I spendt many summers there during my childhood.
Your excellent series captured the essence of this serene and beautiful place. Well done!

Hi Carol, thanks for viewing. I only wish I could have done more this time, there is so much more from that place I would like to show. Better luck next time as there will be another time :)

One of my projects was to capture some grate night sky scenery. It is an amazing place for such type of photography, and some high hills where you can spend night after night. As I had rainy weather most of the time, I was not able to get up those hills. I was fortunate to get some shots from our garden last evening before I left.
What a beautiful setting. You did capture the feel of the place in just these few shots. Excellent story and excellent illustration of a place and a time.

Hehe ,, Even thou his castle is not far from where I was, I've never been there, and I'm sure he's not there for the time being either :D .
Rumor has it he's in the woods testing his D850, he complained over his famous portrait to be too distorted
Thanx for viewing
Thank you for kind words and glad I could share a little from my birthplace with you.
