Photoshooting objectives
I decided to have a photo album about mountain sceneries from Romania.
Hence I planned a trekking trip during summer to my favorite spots (Bran, Moeciu and Alba Iulia surroundings) in order to produce a nice portfolio. I wanted to get photos from less known spots, to capture the fairy-tale like atmosphere the Carpathians mountains can offer. In places like this, the time seems to stop and all you can hear are your heart beats, the wind, and possibly the relaxing sound of the water streams from the valleys.
In order to convey this feeling, I experimented several exposure types and speeds.
You can find below my selection of photos from this trip.
Some photos are mildly edited with my camera app of my Samsung phone: I tempered with the light balance of the foreground, a bit of exposure adjustments, some highlighting of the details and some increased saturation for the photos were the light was poor due to the fog. I do not like to add any tint in my photos. When the light is good, I even prefere to keep the photos raw, as I want to get an image as close as possible to what I actually saw. And, of course, I make a lot of cropping.
I am still thinking about the title of the cover. I’ll revert with a post in few days.
