The bull in front of the BullRing, Birmingham. Look at him! He's sooooooo furious! Well, quite a pleasant thing to see in front of a huge construction of steel and glass. And, besides, he's quite friendly, can't you see? :)

Today it's Easter. Happy Easter dear reader! I didn't know what to say to you today, so I decided to remember last summer I was in Wales and took a picture of the churchyard after the service. I simply love the celtic crosses and the simplity of the chapel. Christ has risen indeed! ;) Where are my choccie eggs?

Near the biiig bear at "Bear Factory", Bullring, Birmingham, February 2005. You can make your own bear and buy clothes for him! You can get a birth certificate for him :)

"Soare si nori imbracati in purpura si vise de nebun". It's Good Friday, bank holiday for the UK, and I am terribly happy. Why this dark picture? Maybe because of the clouds. I love clouds, I like to see them, but in the same time I like sunny weather. Do I really have to make up my mind? Hope not. Contrasts are nice and they offer a path to progress. Too deep into thoughts today, better have a walk outside and maybe take some pictures.

I miss the Welsh daffodils. Their strength and grace is good to follow. Or maybe it's just a warning... "Look at me, but don't think of me as something weak". Spring is near us, huh?

A "Beautiful" combination of architecture styles. Between a 1930s nice building and another 1950s (I guess), there is an ugly 1990s elevavor and two towers and lots of glass and lights and... It doesn't fit in there. My opinion. This is Aston University in Birmingham. ;)

1st of March is the celebration of spring almost everywhere in the northen hemisphere. For Romanian people, the first day of spring comes together with a special name, Martisor. It is known that God of Mars was celebrated in ancient Rome as a symbol of revival, green fields, flocks and love. And because Romanian people has Roman roots, we also celebrate Mars on the first day of the spring. Each spring, we offer the Martisor (a little Amulet, tied with red-and-white thread) to the ones we love, especially women. They wear the amulet for 8-12 days, after which they hung it on a branch of a tree in bloom. For further reading, and more information, please visit http://www.meetromania.info/uk_martisor.html. Happy wonderful spring to everyone! The picture with the snowdrops was taken in my parents' garden, under the walnut tree, last winter/spring.
