My name is Horia, i'm 27 and i'm a biologist from Romania. I recently finished my master’s degree in ecology and i'm now a PhD student. Photography is a rather new passion for me, but i'm very determined to become better at it everyday and to maybe even be a professional one day. My main focus is on natural and travel landscapes and macros. Hope you'll like my images and thanks for visiting :)

Hi!
You don’t explain how this scene came about? How did you find it/ insert the lights/ was it a special festival of ligts etc?

Thanks again everyone!
To answer some questions: the idea of light painting is one i had for quite some time. This time it simply clicked, being out in a remote area, finding a good location and having a nice friend to help me out with the drawing of the flowers. That’s about it
