Intelepciunea unui mag mi-a povestit odata
de-un val prin care nu putem strabate cu privirea,
paienjenis ce-ascunde pretutindeni firea,
de nu vedem nimic din ce-i aievea.

Si-acum, când tu-mi ineci obrajii, ochii
în parul tau,
eu, ametit de valurile-i calde si bogate
visez
ca valul ce preface-n mister
tot largul lumii e urzit
din parul tau –
si strig,
si strig,
si-ntaia oara simt
intreaga vraja ce-a cuprins-o magul în povestea lui.

The cold lake

Dupa o saptamana in care am iesit doar 6 ore din casa [am lucrat pentru facultate si alte cateva lucruri], dupa ce mi`am pierdut si 3 nopti si dupa ce am reusit de terminat proiectul si l`am predat profesorului, pe drum inapoi spre caverna m`am asezat intr`o iarba inalta, verde, cu putina roua pentru a simti din nou natura, sa`mi ies din starea de hibernare de autocad si modelari 3D. Eram prea obosit in a`mi tine ochii deschisi. Din starea de somnolenta m`a trezit mireasma florilor de salcam, copac sub care nu stiam ca m`am asezat. Imediat mi`a revenit dorinta sa fotografiez care am parasit`o timp de o saptamana si mi`am propus sa`mi folosesc simturile din acel moment…roua, verdele, florile uscate. Acestea sunt fotografiile din urmatoarea zi, impreuna cu o domnisoara libera in atitudine, atractiva din fire si senzuala din gesturi, exprimand la fel de bine caldura mea fata de natura si viu. Apa insa era prea rece.. [F11 and enjoy]

After a week in which I spent only 6 hours outside [I worked for a university project and other things] wasting 3 nights on this and finally turning it in, on the way back to my cave I sat in a tall green grass with a little dew on it to feel the nature once again, to get out of the hibernation state I got from Autocad and 3D modeling. I was too tired to keep my eyes open. The scent coming from the acacia tree i was sitting under woke me from my sleepy mood, tree under I did not realize i sat under. Immediately my desire to photograph came back, desire which I ignored for a week and I decided to use my feelings from that moment..dew, green, dried flowers. These are the photographs from the next day, along with a lady with a free attitude, attractive by nature and sensual through gestures, expressing a warmth, I as well, feel for nature and the living. But the water was too cold.. [F11 and enjoy]

Holiday at home

Terminarea sesiunii incununata cu succes m`a adus in orasul natal la parinti [nu ca daca as fi dat`o in bara la examene n`as mai fi ajuns] unde m`a izbit inca o data imaginea linistita si mediocritatea orasului. Scapat din lesa de examene, am fugit cat se poate de mult inspre pasiunea ce m`a indemnat sa deschid acest blog. Astfel, impreuna cu o prietena liceanca [Alexandrina C.] cu deschidere spre artele vizuale, am lucrat spre realizarea unor cadre, sa exersam fiecare ce stim, ce putem face cu ce aveam la indemana, sa completam golurile fiecaruia. Ne`am axat pe portrete si lumina, in sesiuni foto exterioare de scurta durata, datorita temperaturilor de pana la -20°C in timpul zilei, cat si interioare realizate intr`o camera temporar adaptata cerintelor fotografiei de studio. Inchei prin a`mi exprima bucuria de a lucra in echipa si de a culegerii roadelor acestui stil de lucru. [F11&enjoy]

Finishing my finals with succes brought me back to my hometown [not that i wouldn't have returned if i didn't pass my exams], which struck me again with it’s serenety and mediocrity. Feeling like i escaped from a leash, i ran towards the very thing that made me create this blog. Thus, with a friend still in highschool [Alexandrina C.] who is open to the visual arts, i worked on some shots, exercizing what we know, with the equipement that we had, trying to perfect eachother. We emphasized on portraits and light, in very short exterior photo sessions due to the extreme cold outside with temperatures down to -20°C  during the day, and also inside photos in a room temporarily adapted for studio shootings. I’ll end by expressing the contempt of working as a team and the benefits it holds. [F11&enjoy]
