What it means to be green



Today's theme: green. A frog, a dragonfly and a sly  green-eyed cat with the looks of Puss in Boots from Shrek.

Capt'n Buzz

Remember the golden era of sci-fi low-budget movies? This model actually exists but it was never intended to go that high; the photo is in fact a software render of a  wind tunnel standard calibration model that goes by the name of AGARD IV B.

Kitten Musings




A homage to the Romanian alternative band Gandul Matzei ( literally "the cat's thoughts").And a flower to go.And a hydrant.Guess that would make dogs happy but whatever.

Sighisoara today?!






Visiting Sighisoara one feels like all the old Orient remnants were dumped there, mixed with some old German and Hun heritage, and with a bit of local flavor added just to make this place unique..so..Romanian.

Cubulent Nightmare


Cubicles=small boxes containing hyper-stressed under-payed human beings working for goals we common mortals have a hard time comprehending.International company = work farms consisting in one or more overseers and a multitude of sufficiently diverse canned human beings in tiny cubicles.
International company architecture = strictly functional 3-d array of cubicles,totally foreign to any aesthetics whatsoever.
Square heads = any cubicle "smart-ass"that is so dumbed down it cannot function anymore outside the protective cubicle.

And here's the proof... arrays of cubicles.

A raging tsunami.. ( small scale big scare)




Last summer a marine earthquake shook Varna and caused a "tsunami". The said wave had only 0.5 m at its best and it just made for some increased fun on the beach.A fisherman's boat- the perfect place for a portrait.

Life in Kodachrome




Life is colorful. All about my job.Go nuts in the air station.Eat poison ivy. Rinse, repeat.

Random thoughts of a busy man/Strange tripping












Got some post-apocalyptic images from Bucharest : an ecologist group decided to place gas-masks on all the statues in a public place to alert about the rapid deterioration in air quality, and some "show-biz" girls understand that show business is about showing your..business around even if it's darn cold and freezing and the windows are covered in beautiful frost-leaves.
Both the prince and his horse need the gas mask protection it seems. As a funny sidenote in the First World War gas masks for horses were real and were issued whenever cavalry was expecting gas attacks.

Shots in exile: the sea





 The seaside...Costinesti in 2009-lots of sun..and moon.. and some very mixed-up buildings somehow translate to a happy and light atmosphere.
