It is a feature of human nature. To believe that what the other has is better. This makes us want what we see others have ... as children actually do. I like exotic flowers, but my desire does not go very far, to the tropics, because I know that it is not possible to get there. I stop at the Mediterranean climate and its flora. I like it the most when I can grow flowers from another climate in my yard. After many attempts I managed to have the passionflower, Passiflora, blooming on my fence. I am very happy and I hope that next year I will succeed more, with more varieties and colors. Our friend, @dswigle, has a relevant tag, #alwaysaflower, about the beauty of flowers and the need to have them in our lives! #photography #alwaysaflower

A statuary group in front of the National Theater. I told you a few days ago about a theater show, seen after almost two years of pause. The statuary group, composed of 16 bronze statues, has a total weight of 25 tons. It is a statuary group dedicated to the actors, in this case to the traveling actors who traveled with a cart, from city to city. Of course, many years ago, two centuries ago. It's a monument that I like very much and it is emblematic of the center of Bucharest. #art #photography

Just as the eye is the window of the soul, so is the window, the eye of the house! I like to look at the windows of houses, they often say what those who live there are like. My wife loves geraniums. That's why our windows look this way.

Museums are places where you can learn about many things, museums are sights to visit when we travel to cities and foreign countries ... On the other hand, especially in summer, it's difficult to spend time inside a building when it's so beautiful outside. I solved this problem by visiting an open-air museum, a flower museum, a botanical garden. Balchik Botanical Garden, Bulgaria. #photography #nature

Coming out of the ground, that is, from the subway, on the way to the national theater. After two years I managed to go to the theater, and I must admit that I missed it. Downtown, National Theater, memories! Our old life ... An Armin Van Buuren concert is coming, who knows, maybe I'll be there too ...

The signs of autumn are more and more obvious, the short vacation at the sea is at the end. Soon I will go home and hate partings, not only of people but also of places, objects ... As the French say ... Breaking up means dying a little!

The favorite word in crypto seems to be "HODL", meaning to keep, to gather, I think, I who am not exactly a good understander of the English language nor of the crypto world. I think it is a realistic and pertinent urge, for those who can afford it. I decided to test the crypto reality in the real world and I decided to take a few days of vacation, at sea, a trip to the sea paid exclusively from my blogging and microblogging activity. I succeeded, I have one more day and a wonderful mini-vacation at the sea ends, paid with the money earned in Noise.cash, and Hive! #crypto #travel

The most beloved fish, a mammal, is the dolphin! Considered the most intelligent, a fish that communicates with those of its species, even has a language that researchers are trying to decipher. The closest to man and friendly in the aquatic environment ... In the Black Sea, where I can go, there are dolphins, smaller specimens. I only saw them far away, at sea. On land, we have a steel dolphin, a tribute to this friend of ours.

It would seem that flowers can be ashamed. Here is a rose that seems to have blood on its cheeks, just as a good girl can blush. #photography #flowers

I allow myself a little suggestion, @noise.cash! This little pop-up asks us if we subscribe or not. Sometimes it's too early to subscribe, without knowing a bit about the one who posts, but at the same time, it seems to me too brutal to say "No", I think maybe is a quality user ... I think that another alternative would be useful, such as: "Not Yet" or "Later", remaining the possibility to follow the evolution of that user of this platform and to decide if we subscribe, after a better evaluation. Of course, it's just a matter of expression, it causes me a little discomfort, I don't know if you have such an approach #noise.cash

The most pleasant is the end of the wait! Of course, when the object of waiting is pleasant, desired. Like when you make a trip, especially if it is long and tiring. When you see the light at the end of the tunnel ... The mountains in front are on the Greek island of Thassos. The hands that can be seen are those of those on the ferry and who have reached the end of the wait! #travel #photography

I met a cat on the street. A very young cat. I was impressed by the way she looked at me ... fearlessly, curiously, calmly.
@BlueDan
And yet, the summer is not over. The sea is still waiting for us. I actually prefer September for the sea. It's less crowded, it's cheaper, the heat isn't so intense. Unfortunately, there are many against me to get back to Greece. The only consolation is the photos from the past years!

Autumn is approaching imperceptibly, the mornings are getting colder. It was a sudden transition from the summer heat ... I'm trying to adapt to autumn with some photos from last year, taken on a walk through the largest park in Bucharest. You know: Bucharest, the capital of Romania, a country of Europe, for better information. #photography #seasons #life

We talked about vegetables, now is the time for meat. I think there are few who don't like steak (except vegetarians and vegans). Speaking of men, there are quite a few who are helpless in the kitchen and are waiting, hungry, for the help of a woman. I want to show that it is extremely simple to make a steak yourself! A piece of meat, on which salt, pepper, and a little oil are put. Then put it in a pan and fry for a few minutes on both sides, over high heat. That's all, many can't even imagine how easy it is ...

In Europe, the continent where I live is still summer now. It was a hot summer, I think the hottest I've ever had. So hot that now, when it's 22 degrees Celsius and I feel cold! Summer is the season for fresh vegetables. One of my pleasures is eggplant salad with baked bell peppers. Eggplants and peppers should be baked before making a salad. The tastiest is when baking is done on the grill, with a wood flame ...

Strange that large constructions appear in small countries, which can not afford such extravagances. The Palace of the Romanian Parliament, the second-largest building in the world. Construction began in the 1980s, during the communist period of the country. The construction was completed after the country became democratic. The new society woke up to this huge construction and did not know what to do with it. Eventually, it became Parliament. Maintenance and repair costs are enormous.

The most spectacular flowers I can find in a park in my city are lotuses. Lotuses are not flowers specific to the climate where I live, so the existence of these lotuses is an enigma to me. Every opportunity to see this lotus-filled pond fills me with joy and I try to share this joy with you. I wish you a pleasant weekend!

Chances are I'll get to the beach again. Over a week. In the meantime, I am watching how the number of Covid infections increases both in my country, Romania, and in the neighboring country, Bulgaria, where I want to go to the sea. The Black Sea! This sea is both in Romania and in Bulgaria, I prefer Bulgaria because it is more beautiful. I say it with regret but I have to be objective. Anyway, I'm grateful it's close to my house, I'll be there in three or four hours. I just have to hope that the increased number of Covid infections does not change access to the neighboring country.

Coffee has become an addiction. Drink for relaxation, drink for refreshment. Anyone knows how to make a coffee, in fact, is not a great philosophy, boiled water and one, two teaspoons of ground coffee. From this little pleasure has now come a colossal industry. Because coffee is better when it is made by someone else and when he is a barista, everything becomes art. I like coffee, I make it myself at home twice a day. When I go to a cafe it's a treat!

I think seagulls are some of the most greedy birds. Every time I went by ferry I saw these scenes. Feeding seagulls by tourists. Sometimes there were wounds on the fingers ... The seagulls' gratitude to those who fed them didn't make them more delicate in catching prey. In fact, even the tourists didn't act out of I don't know what pity, it was just fun.

Last night I dreamed of winter! I think I was impressed by the storm that was yesterday in the north of the country, where my brother lives, and who sent me some photos with the snow that fell in the middle of summer ... The climate is playing harder and harder with us. Some pictures after the most beautiful snow last winter. #winter #photography

I remember my childhood and the biggest adventure that could be for me, a vacation at the sea. For me, the sea meant to change, getting out of boredom from the plain city. Beyond the beach, bathing in the sea, food other than at home, there was something else I liked, the seagulls! I could only see them by the sea ... Now the seagulls have invaded my city from the plain, which is far from the sea. Seagulls have become city birds, just like pigeons! #mycity #photography

The beginning and the end! Glad to see a new day begin! Surprised that I know that in other parts of this earth a day ends ... We all live in our little piece of reality. Let's enjoy this chance! #life #photography

I think it's a wonderful feeling to be able to cut the water, to slide so fast in such a small boat, which is almost invisible, a kayak. When I look at the athlete who drives the kayak, I have the impression that it is very easy, but I am convinced that it is not so. It takes a lot of training and works for the kayak and the athlete's body to behave as a whole. Go kayaking, one more thing I know I'll never do!

In the middle of the city, surrounded by high blocks, shops, and alleys full of cars, is this monastery. It's called Antim. It is both a museum and an active place of worship. Why is it so important? Because this was the first printing house, books were printed, and then the first library was set up. Because it is an example of early Romanian architecture, the Brancovenesc style. #mytown #photography #architecture

Strange constructions, constructions that obviously were difficult to execute. Constructions that are no longer useful now, no one uses them anymore ... These are useless but they have their beauty and grandeur. I wonder what would be better, to be demolished to clear the land for other constructions or to be left, to remain as a kind of monument, a reminder that nothing is eternal! #photography #thoughts&questions

A flower for a peaceful sleep! It's past midnight, it's time for sleep. I have to follow the habit of looking at a flower before bed, it can only do good. I want to check if it's good for me. Good night!

When we talk about a dog's life, it's not always bad. I know some dogs that have an extremely good life. Not necessarily because they have good food and a house. They have a lot of love, sometimes more than I can understand ...
