Bucharest


Bucharest — Images by Kira Hagen

 

I have my first pho­tos from Bucharest up now… hon­estly didn’t take that many pic­tures in the cap­i­tal; it’s the sort of place that walk­ing alone with a DSLR doesn’t seem like the best of ideas. That said, the town has a crum­bling ele­gance that was very grace­ful. Every cor­ner held promises of strange­ness and won­ders — they used to call Bucharest the Paris of the East, though it made me think more of pho­tos I’ve seen of Havana. Cer­tainly the heat bore more rela­tion to a trop­i­cal island than main­land Europe!
