Hello,
Just a note to let you know I’m still alive. I’ve been very busy lately with postprocessing the photos I took for the assignment I have with a magazine. These are from the Danube Delta, a place somehow hard to reach. Not my kind of subject, that’s the first attempt at shooting birds; that’s why I did not feel like posting them here. Besides, quantity was big. Anyway, here are few. Hope to catch back. Oh, the magazine is about urbanism, not wildlife. I shot all these for my own pleasure, with my normal architecture gear, the longest telephoto being the 135mm. I also have birds shot with 24mm TS-E, but those are from the museum.

Just for the fun of it.
Right now I am in Barcelona and I am enjoying this marvel of a city. I took with me a light gear: 2 gf1 bodies + 3 pany lenses (14-24mm f 4, 24-90mm, f 3.5-5.6 and the 40mm f 1.7 (these are translations into 35mm language)). This comes to exactly half the weight of a canon 5D+24mm TS-E+17-40 f 4+135mm f 2.

Edit: The Roma community of Baltesti is one of the poorest in Romania. That’s why I do social work there with the Soros Foundation in order to increase the living standard by designing and building decent houses for these unfortunates.

Hi, just for the fun of it, here is a photo taken with the 24mm TS-E lens, shifted to left. I enjoy very much taking photos like this for the following reasons:
1. the subject sees you but can’t imagine you are actually shooting him; thus resulting in very sincere mimics;
2. in fact, the subject wonders what the heck are you so very carefully composing next to his shoulder, since there is most ofen just nothing;
3. the subject’s face while seeing that you turn the knob and the fron lens goes left or right is one of the most funny part;
4. I have to crop the photo, so there is not much to do with the small output. :)
For reference, here is the full image. :) The “subject” was the archer statue.
