Just about every apartment has those through-the-wall type air conditioning units. The company I work for used one in our first server room. Before and after that I never saw anything similar, but with my first trip to Romania the apartment I rented then had an almost identical unit. They still don't seem to be popular in the US, but I tell you they work well.

Yes, Bucharest.

You're welcome.

Though, I would rather be shooting portraits. That's part of the reason there's so few photos. The other is that while I could easily blend into the crowd, that no one bothered me except people handing out fliers who were bugging every Romanian who passed, and one guy who needed a light. As soon as I strapped the SLR around my neck everyone in the city figured I'd have something to give them. Rather annoying, so I quickly went back to being anonymous.

Totally unrelated to Romania, but follow from my last post. Here's an image from a shoot I did this past weekend. I definitely prefer this to buildings:

Nice scenery there on the last shot Chris. I've traveled a fair amount in eastern Europe, but haven't made it to Romania yet.

Enjoy the music, not the equipment.
