I Spent 10 Years Photographing The Romanian Countryside Which Looks Like A Fairy Tale (New Pics)
In the past years, I have taken stunning pictures of the sunrise and the sunset from different corners hidden from circulated roads or modern cities, in the beautiful region called Transylvania situated in Romania.
I chose to use some photography techniques and post-processing to emphasize the feelings and moods I personally felt in these places. In this series, I photographed fortified churches built by Transylvanian Saxons, mountain pastures, beautiful nature, villages where transport is based on ox and cart, portraying the pastoral idyll of Transylvania.
It’s not hard to see why the beautiful landscapes of Transylvania have sparked the imagination of so many writers. As English travel writer Patrick Leigh Fermor wrote in 1934: ‘Transylvania had been a familiar name as long as I could remember. It was the very essence and symbol of remote, leafy, half-mythical strangeness; and, on the spot, it seemed remoter still and more fraught with charms.’ With this quote in my mind, I made a selection of last year's interesting photos, and I hope you will feel the magic from these nature photography shots too.
The hard work of the last 10 years was rewarded with a Sony World Photography Awards 2019 – National Award and the effort to promote my native county worldwide got me the title of “Tourism Ambassador”.

What I see, is of course amazing and unique, I have never seen anything like this !!!
Breathtaking. Any moment, a lilting song will fill the air, and a moment later a wandering minstrel will appear playing a whistle as he joins the morning birdsong.
Do you see the eyes on that cloud? Now that is something. How many faces do you see?
they moved faster than the wind, and we're seeing only the dust left behind
Hard work, by hand and muscle strength. This is probably what we are going back to, out of necessity, after a century or so of abusing the land instead of using it, working with it, not against it.
My love of mountains and with the cabin, I believe I would be content living here, lovely photo !!!
Extraordinarily beautiful photographs. I had no idea that the Romanian countryside was so stunningly gorgeous. I feel like I would just like to walk into your photos and become a part of the landscapes. They felt so alive to me.
I'm a neighbor from Bulgaria and i really love Romania; such a beautiful country!
