Autumn Glimpses

And here you are, Autumn! The tree leaves are changing their colour and one by one leaving their old nest and venture into the wild wind towards the unknown... and so what used to be green and full of life is getting greyer and greyer by the minute... and the rest of us are only trying to get accustomed to it and kind of resigning with what lies before us, i.e. a cold and harsh winter burring everything in a white and somewhat purest coat of the whitest snow.

Here are some photos with the nature undergoing this transformation process taken in the "Sub Arini" Park. Hope you like them...

Sibiu Pottery Fair 2012

The Sibiu Pottery Fair took place between the 1st and the 2nd of September this year. The Big Square was full of pottery stands where everyone could find and buy a little souvenir or something useful around the house. There were a lot of visitors who were impressed by the beauty of the handmade and hand-painted pottery exposed in the city centre. There was a little something for everybody...

Here are a few miscellaneous photos. They were taken with the mobile phone. Hope you like them!

Sibiu Medieval Festival: Artgotica

The medieval story continued on the second day of the Medieval Festival "Transylvanian Fortresses" in Sibiu.

The live concerts, representations and shows continued to amaze the flow of spectators that were again transposed into an atmosphere of heroism, chivalry, courage and all the same.

I managed to film a show entitled "The Night of the Monsters" put in stage by Artgotica. I will post the video below. Watch it and judge for yourselves...

The 26th of August is the last day of the festival.
