very nice to show this to everyone, really looks amazing. even if i'm born in Romania I haven't visited it yet, but sure planning to do this summer a 2 week road trip in the west of the country.

WOW it has high value art.
Amazing ! You have Beautiful photos are nice views, while good photos (not necessarily beautiful) that fit the target. In my opinion, it takes a "wow effect" to make our work memorable. "Wow effect is needed to make a good photo more talk. Good job and well done
