Hello, friends, I decided to start a topic where I can show you some pictures I've taken :) The camera is Sony DSC-W150 (8.1 megapixel with 5x optical zoom)
Yesterday I went to the village of Medovo, where there's an ethnographic complex with Bulgarian revival houses. (they're newly built but in an old style ;))
First an overview of the complex: (sorry for the blurry photo >_<)

Some typical revival houses from the 18th century:

Nice pictures there Ioan, some good angles in it and great composition with the buildings ! :thumbsup: The tree last pictures are in Sepia ?
Yes, they're in sepia, Arthur. Thanks for the comment!
:sunny: And now a new update :) A few pics from 3 sunrises. I don't like getting up early, but the view of the rising sun is worth getting up at 5 in the morning!
These two are from June 13th:

Please comment :) Stay tuned for more pics! &opr
Very nice pics. The revival houses are very nice, exactly how old (or new) are they?
The sunrise is magnificent... bet that 5am water is cold though...
Exclent sunrises pictures there ioan, I really like them. But like Carlos, the people are a bit lunatic cause the water must be very very cold !
Very nice pics Io_bg. And when I saw the flag of the European Union, it remembers me that Bulgaria is in the EU :D
Guillaume :thumbsup:
REPLIES
DebussyMan - That complex was built in 2006 and originally such houses were built somewhere in the 18th century. And yep, the water was cold when I took those pictures... But it looks its temperature wasn't a problem for the people who were in the sea :P
art128 - Thanks, Arthur! As I wrote above, the water was cold ;)
Sciurus - Thank you for stopping by! Yes, but after being more than 2 years in EU, live hasn't changed much in my country. It even got worse after the crisis the last year!
And now onto the new update. This time I'll show you some pics from my hometown, Bourgas. Bourgas is situated in Southeastern Bulgaria on the Black sea coast in a big bay. The population is about 200'000 people. In the town is located the biggest port and the busiest airport in the country (especially during the summer). Okay, enough stats, now the pictures. The first and the second show the University of Bourgas, a modern building that, in my opinion, will be worth BATting.

This is a fountain in the town centre. Behind it there's a construction site that has sit there for quite a long time and there's nothing built.

And please, comment!
The city hall reminds me some N-Y buildings ! Your city is modern, I like that style, great photos ! :thumbsup:

In the next update we'll leave Bulgaria and will go to Greece, where I was in May. Please comment! :)
Great photos there Ioan, I really like the mixed architecture in your city. &apls
A really nice variety of pix, Ioan. I especially like the yellow building with white trim in the fourth from last photo. Looking forward to seeing the ones you took in Greece.

Love the pics. Your town has some very nice sights (hmmm... *gets inspired* /&HiPP/%)

art128 - Thank you, my friend!
Jmouse - Thanks, Joan! The photos from Greece are below ;)
DebussyMan - I'm happy I've inspired you :)
And now the new update. In May (this year) I went on a 3-day trip to Greece. First we went to Thasos, Kavala, then Paralia (where we slept in a hotel). The next day we visited Meteora, a beautiful nature wonder. And on the 3rd day we went to Thessaloniki and returned to Bulgaria. The weather wasn't nice all the time, but I enjoyed the trip. I hope you'll enjoy the pictures, too!
First, the port of the village, where we took the ferry to the island of Thasos.

Greece must be a great vacation destination. It's lovely and has some interesting sights to visit, like that castle by the sea. The most recent shots are good, too - you chose some good subjects and effective camera angles.

Absolutely stunning &apls &apls
You have a good natural eye for taking photography, lets hope the new D90 can produce some more wonderful pictures!! Also what cell phone do you have?? The second picture of the red sea is so sharp :o
Great photo Gallery my friend, I like those natural pics, great job !
Thank you skyhigh and kelis! My cell is Sony Ericsson Vivaz. It takes okay-ish pics ;D
Here are the best pics I took during the last week (using the D90 of course :P)

Tomorrow I'm heading to Rila (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rila), the highest mountain in Bulgaria and the Balkan peninsula. So get ready for more pics from there ;D
That last picture is wonderful, Ioan! I can see that you enjoyed your D90! :D
Love the first pic, there is something about a sailing boat on a flat lake that is just amazing &apls The third pic has a very interesting foreground, could make quite the abstract picture, Rila looks like a good place to take pictures of, can't wait to see them :P
Zdravei Ioan! (здравей!)
I really like your pictures, the pictures of Bourgas remind me a little bit of Lake Ohrid in Macedonia!
Anyway, during the summer of 2003 (When I was 4) I went to Varna, and I Loooved it there, so I wondered, do you have any pics of Varna? $%Grinno$%
If you do, could you please post them?
Thanks a Lot in advance !
Greetings from the Netherlands!

art128 - Thanks! And I'm still enjoying it ;D
skyhigh - Thank you as well! Just to point out, it's the Black sea (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_sea) in the first picture :P
Ricky112233 - Thanks for your comment Ricky! Unfortunately I've been only twice in Varna and I didn't stay very long there (just a few hours) so I don't have any interesting pics from there ()sad() But if I ever go there again, I'll certainly share them :) Greetings from Bulgaria, too!
So here are some of the pictures I took. First is Musala, the highest peak in Bulgaria and the Balkans which stands 2925 metres above the sea level.

great pic io_bg &apls Windsurfing is a really hard sport to photograph, you have some great pics in those sets.
Thanks skyhigh! I wish I had a longer lens though, a 18-105mm isn't really suitable for sports shooting since it is short and doesn't have a wide aperture.
Okay, maybe I should stop complaining :D I've been recently experimenting with longer exposures... 10 second at f/18.

Thank you for your comments! Here are a few pics I took in January:
First is a 2 minute long exposure of the bay of Bourgas taken after sunset

It's been quite cold in the past 10 days, the temperatures here at the coast have dropped to about -12° C (the record low temperature for my city is -16°). Add the cold sea wind to that and you have a freezing weather. I took this one yesterday morning, my hands almost froze while capturing it. The 20 second exposure made the sea look like fog.

The pictures make me shiver. We had -17 this morning.
It must've been quite cold, Raphael. I'm glad the weather is better now, the temperature here is about 5°.
Yesterday I managed to wake up at quarter to 6 so I took my camera bag and tripod and went to the beach. The weather wasn't really suitable for landscapes because it was hazy and colours were dull. I started taking the usual landscape pics when I realised it's not worth it so I moved on. I took a walk on the pier when I saw this below. I positioned myself so that the sun is exactly in the middle of that thing on the pier and I pressed the shutter ;D

Then I climbed up the stairs leading to an overlooking terrace when I saw a fishing boat in the sea. I started moving around until I got the boat be exactly in the middle of the waves reflecting the morning sun.

I like the depth of field in the seascape picture. And the pictures of the pier and "Morning Chatter" are really really good. &apls
"Prepare for takeoff", hmm ... nice motive for sure. But something is not quite right. The exposure time is too long and I find the blurry birds in the sky distracting.
Ioan, looking at these pictures of me, I am sad for the sea and I wish summer would come soon to come to visit you and see these great landscapes live.
RickD - Thanks! I decided to use a slower shutter speed in that pic in order to create a sense of movement and to emphasize only on that bird.
ivo_su - Thank you; fortunately summer is coming soon. I can't wait for it either!
On Wednesday I finally had the chance to shoot in foggy weather, I've always wanted to do so! I like the mystic feel fog adds to pics. Here's the best one I took that day at the pier in my city.

A couple of days ago I bought my first prime lens - a Nikkor 35mm f/1.8. It's a fun little glass, the single focal length is often limiting (I like wide angles :P) but the bokeh it produces is pretty good and is much easier to achieve than using my kit lens. Here's a snap I took using it:
