AUTHOR
I am Catalin Alexandru Romanian photographer and I do black-and-white photography,in which I try to capture moody, atmospheric scenes of abandoned buildings, rural landscapes, and solitary structures. My work often reflects themes of solitude and mystery, drawing viewers into striking compositions marked by high contrast and deep textures but I also try to capture Romania’s landscapes and architecture, using the monochrome palette to emphasize timelessness and emotional depth.
