[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
in Romania, one of the most popular traditions for Christmas is eating pig meat. almost in every courtyard in the country, the peasants have a pig for Christmas. they are prepearing many delicious specialitis and sosiges... and the second day after Christmas almost everybody is feeling sick:))

here is a very recent picture from a mountain village with the "killing pig" operation... I have a serie, so in next days, more "bloody" shots:))

Cam măcăbruţă viziune, mai ales cu aburul ăla. Dar nu-l taie de Crăciun ci de Ignat (20 decembrie), sărbătoare păgână la origini, având rădăcinile pe undeva prin antichitate, povestea aia cu sacrificarea animalelor, ştii tu...
N-am suportat niciodata "procesul", da' mă-mpac bine cu rezultatele :)

Hello Anca,
I read your note with interest, and can say: Same here! Pigs are the favourite Christmas foodstuff...
But I have to admit I haven't actually seen this be done since I was a kid...
Pleasant memory indeed!
Greetings,

E mortal aburu' ala, intr-adevar ...
Misto poza.
Nu stiu exact cum e mai corect, atunci cand vorbesti despre carne, pig sau pork.

hi anca, ow, no, more bloody shot........but will come to look, just because we don't have the smell of the blood....otherwise i was sick too!
so nice action shot, the 'damp' above the poor animal is fabulous well shooted!

Hi Anca, a good journalistic image, well done, thanx, M, (*_*)

Salut Anca,
As i was born in the country side in Austria, it is a known staff for me. And in my childhood it was always a big 'event' with different feelings. And also your picture is very well done.

ok, vad ca esti inapoi in forma. compozitia si aburul care se ridica din carcasa dau un fler de national geographic. am inceput sa ma gindesc la piftie ;-)

numai bine,
Cristian

Good reportage photo but I think it would better to catch more faces…
P.S. You have a “competitor”; “Tristan-z”…
