Light and Dark. Old and New. Black and White. Love and Hate. Positive and Negative. Strong or Weak. Past and Future. We relate everything to dual entities. Duality is deep inside us since we opened the eyes in this world. Should we embrace it or reject it ? Accept or deny ? Is our eternal search for a soul-mate related to this duality ?

It's known an image worth a thousand words...but how do we measure it in unspoken words ? In non-words or unwords or "necuvinte" as a famous Romanian poet wrote about ? And what is the point of having words if we can express so much better in images ?

A World without Red

I am in love with red colour.
One of the prime colours, no doubt the most important.
I need red in my life. It brings passion and joy in everything.
Can you imagine a world without red ? No sunsets and no poppies ?

I'd like to introduce a guest invite for our blog, a dear friend and former highschool mate, but also a partner for Card-Photo. Her name is Oana Rotariu, a very talented writer and a special person, thoughtful and insightful, but also life loving and contagiously exuberant, despite all the hardships of life that she had to surpass.

As every photographer, after I put up a bunch of photos on my website, I started to worry about web visibility and having visitors. I know I am not the best photographer in the world and I am doing this as a hobby so I do not expect to become famous or rich because of it. By contrary, I am spending money without a return of investment. But I do believe in my photography so I am doing every day a little bit of it...

Proud to share my joy with whoever reads my blog: my photo (Am Wall Mühle from "Bremen by Night" collection) won a photo contest on G+ organised by Pixum!

Pixum (www.pixum.de) is one of the leaders in print-on-demand services worldwide and I was actually checking how to integrate their API in my website when I discovered they were launching their first contest on G+ and I was happy to participate.

The contest (with theme "Night") ended on 25th February 2014 and I'd like to thank once again my G+ followers who voted for my photo and support me every day in my photographic endeavour.
