Photographer's Note
Târgu Mureș (or Tîrgu Mureș in ancient Romanian) is a city in the department of Mures, located within the Transylvania region, with the eastern Carpathians and the Mures River to the east.
Settlement since the Neolithic, Bronze Age and much later Dacian and Roman colony, the mineral deposits of salt, iron and natural gas, in addition to its flourishing agriculture, have fostered its growth and constant natural use.
Târgu Mureș reflects the traits of Hungarian influence over many centuries, especially in the architecture and numerous traditions preserved with great fidelity. Marosvásárhely is the Hungarian name that the city had, and Neumarkt am Mieresch the German, which reflects, like the word “Târgu Mureş” (Mures market), the main economic activity and commercial character of the city.
In fact, the 19th century was the capital for urban planning as important transformations were carried out that endowed the city with the two cathedrals that we see today, the Orthodox and the Catholic.
Also in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, the city was enriched by magnificent buildings for private use.
----------------------------------------------------
Târgu Mureș (o Tîrgu Mureș en rumano antiguo) es una ciudad del departamento de Mures, enclavada dentro de la región de Transilvania, con los Cárpatos orientales y el río Mures al este.
Asentamiento ya desde el neolítico, edad de bronce y mucho después dacio y colonia romana, los yacimientos minerales de sal, hierro y gas natural, además de su floreciente agricultura, han fomentado su crecimiento y aprovechamiento natural constante.
Târgu Mureș refleja los rasgos de influencia húngara durante muchos siglos, especialmente en la arquitectura y numerosas tradiciones conservadas con gran fidelidad. Marosvásárhely es el nombre húngaro que tuvo la ciudad, y Neumarkt am Mieresch el alemán, lo que refleja igual que el vocablo “Târgu Mureş” (mercado de Mures), la principal actividad económica y carácter comercial de la ciudad.
De hecho, el siglo XIX fue capital para el urbanismo ya que se llevaron a cabo importantes transformaciones que dotaron a la ciudad de las dos catedrales que vemos hoy en día, la ortodoxa y la católica.
Igualmente el final del siglo XIX y principios del XX, la ciudad se vio enriquecida por magnificos edificios para el uso privado.

Hello Luis,
Nice balcony, or I should say nice features on the wall. The white decorations above the windows, just inside the yellow frame, are very elegant.
I wonder what flag that is. It doesn't look like the Transylvanian flag, neither that of the city.
In any case well spotted neat details of a building, captured with the usual sharpness and good exposure.
Best regards,
Gert

Hello Luis,
Very good symmetry and framing, with perfect perspective and wonderful colour and sharpness. Good warm cold colour contrasts between the reflected blue skylight in the windows and the warm, earthy colours of reddish brown and yellow. Tfs!

Hello Luis, it would be difficult to identify the style portrayed here without a reference to the country.
Apart from the few leaves on the left, you have managed a perfectly symmetrical shot.
It is very fine.
Kind regards, Jean.

Hi Luis
An eye drawing capture with some bold colours lends this arty balcony a great lift. It's pleasantly framed with subtle light, detail and overall contrast. Nice observation and capture
Best regards

Hello Luis,
A good close-up of these windows, door and balcony. Their red tones make a nice contrast with the white walls and the yellow frame. Well done.

Hola Luis,
Maybe the Hungarian influence is very strong because some parts of Romania were Hungarian prior to WWII.
This is a very pretty section of the house.
This is what would be called a Juliette balcony and has been tastefully decorated to match the windows.
It's a very neatly cropped photograph, giving a symmetrical composition and revealing sharply captured details.
My warm regards,
Bev :-)

Hello Luis,
Beautiful symmetrical decorations above the windows.
What we see from the wall itself also looks very nice.
I don't know if the wrought iron of the balcony will attract a Spanish traveller. Spain has many beautiful balconies and windows with wrought iron in front of it.
The colour of the balcony matches the wood of the door and the windows.
Best regards, Paul
