These images are relatively new on the Internet. It was a little bit shocking for me to see them. I just heard some stories from my grandfather and from some books that the Bucharest was hit in 4th and 15th of April 1944 by American and Britannic planes but I never guessed that it was at this scale.
23rd of August Military Parade
I found these pictures in my father archive. I suppose that the images are made in 1952 or 53. This is an 23rd o of august military parade (the national day in the Romanian communist era). The pictures are shoot in Saint Gheorghe Square (this is between Unirii and Universitate Square).

panoramic view
Azi am ajuns prin cladirea Generali de la Buzesti – Polizu cu ceva treaba. Daca tot am trecut pe acolo si daca tot am urcat pana la etajul treisprezece, am decis ca merita sa fac o fotografie. Cei ce inca nu au vazut Bucurestiul din unghiul acesta, sunt invitati sa priveasca.
Robert Doisneau… super oferta in Paris
Am incercat opt zile la rand, atat cat am stat in Paris, sa intru la o expoxitie Doisneau si nu am reusit pentru ca era coada. Sa nu va inchipuiti ca era o coada rezonabila, era mai ceva decat cozile de la carne de pe vremea bunicilor sau de cele de la Mc Donald’s de dupa revolutie.
