Looking back at some of my favorite places - Ep 1 - The Ceahlau Mountains

in #photography7 years ago (edited)


This is a view that I find myself missing rather often. I grew up not so far from this place and I must have gone up there dozens of times by now. Since I currently live quite far away from the Ceahlau mountains in Romania, going up there isn't as easy as it used to be. This really is one of my favorite places out there and I will be sharing some of the others with you in the coming months.

I took this panorama from just outside the Dochia hut using my old Iphone 4S. About 5 hours after I left the car-park of the Izvoru Muntelui village (you can see it in the image) on the long, scenic route towards Dochia hut, I arrived at this point. I was on my way to the other side of the massive where I spent the night at Fantanele hut. It was a rather pleasant hike through the dark after having a bite to eat and a few cups of mountain herb tea at Dochia hut.


Hope you liked the post and please let me know what you think about the image I really like feedback...

Also, I would want you to know that I would be humbled if you decided to use any of my images, however, please contact me about it first to discuss the matter. Thank you! :)

Love the photo and the area. Also I like that you promote such nice places. I've sent you randowhale for a boost ;)

Thank you! That is really a kind gesture on your behalf! Greatly appreciated. I also have similar voting habits (ex: HERE ). I just started with that but I will keep an eye out on your future posts :D

Cool that you also do it. Need to spread the steemlove :)

Beautiful shot!

Thank you! :)

I can see why you would miss that view! It is stunningly beautiful. upped and steemed

Many thanks for that! I am glad you liked it. I really do miss it and I wish I can get more days off work and cheaper flights to get to see it and other places in my home country soon.

That's really beautiful place @creutzy. Actually Balkans is full of such beauties. You may travel it sometime and bring your memories here. Upvoted, resteemed & DPS.

Cheers, appreciated! I do wish to make my way around the Balkans at some point soon. All the best & steem on!

You've been already...Bulgaria and Greece are Balkan countries (and Romania according to some old historic sources...)

Well...you know what I meant.

No, I really don't :P

Don't always need a dslr for a great shot!

That's true! I think phones have come a long way. Just got a newer, better iPhone and that one is even better. A good dslr is always nicer to use and delivers better results but the weight of it makes carrying it around not that fun. The best camera is always the one that's on you at all times. The phone does a great job at that by being compact and almost indispensable these days.
