Hindenburg was the pride of the Nazi Germany. Build by Zeppelin company this was the biggest flying machine of those times and the safest. Started from Frankfurt, Germany and ended in Manchester, New Jersey, USA, the flight was the first transatlantic official flight.
Am descoperit un eveniment interesant si sunt convins ca merita sa mergeti. In fiecare miercuri un actor sau cineast roman prezinta un film ce ii place. Totul se intampla la ora 20:00 intr-un cinematograf organizat ad-hoc la Orange Concept Store pe Calea Victoriei langa Magazinul Muzica. Saptamana asta actorul Andi Vasluianu (a jucat in Hartia va fi albastra, Marilena de la P7) propune filmul “Amores Perros”. By the way, intrarea este libera. :)
Cum ar fi fost sa il vedeti cu aparatul la ochi pe aleile din Drumul Taberei sau mai bine in magazinul Big Berceni din Piata Sudului. Pai daca ati fi fost ceva mai atenti prin 1975 l-ati fi observat cu siguranta pentru ca Henri Cartier-Bresson a fost in Romania.

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.
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).
I’m glad to announce you an important portfolio update on my main site www.alexgalmeanu.com. More than 30 new pictures and some new categories. have fun :)

Promt sa raspund tuturor.
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.
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.
You have to see this, 9 by 1,5 meters backlighted picture. It is huge and it is sharp enouh to count the lashes. Go to 40-44 Banu Andronache Street in Bucharest and have a drink there.
