Central European Lines

I don't know why, I notice such nice floors. The paintings are so bright and cheerful, beats a door full of skulls for cheering one up.

Yes,I tried to show the complexity of a life kept in faith and prayer(which faith is not too important). Despite of first impression,this monasteries are not at all sad places.There,in such places live together more souls than we,the tourists or pilgrims can see.Steve,thanks you observed that.

they fed patriotic feelings showing uniforms of the fighters against conquerors,the heroes portraits,their tragic death,

national costumes of the Greek women who supported the fight.Despite of refractions and reflections in/on the glass of the showcase their beauty can be admired.

[Radu Dinu Cordeanu]

Today,as in the past,Greek women come here with their children to breath in faith and patriotism.

I really like this particular picture (BW, Church and cross in background behind hills). I would continue to work with it. I can't give you exact advice. I know if this was my photo I would be playing with contrast, clarity, black, sharpness, and colors (I don't mean converting it to color). Just a side note, I think in many of your other pics I would reduce my green saturation.

Now,Meteora was behind and a new kind of Greek landscape was opened in front of our eyes.

But our goal was just driving and driving toward Bucharest

As always,for me,the returning to the daily life,from a journey,seems to be like the entrance in a tunnel

At the middle of April I was at a medical congress to photograph.So I spent almost two days in Craiova,an industrial and university town at 130miles West of Bucharest,in the Romanian South plain.Walking on the streets I observed this pole whose impertinence amazed me.Here at the East border of the E.U. to tell this is the center of the E.U.was over my intellectual level.




Of course ,no translation is needed to understand what is written.

[Radu Dinu Cordeanu]

The road to Craiova is a single lane one full with different kind of vehicles

[Radu Dinu Cordeanu]

So we arrived at the new buildings of the Medicine University.
