About me!

Hi!

My name is Alexandru Pastor, you can just call me Alex and my favorite hobby is landscape and night photography. I’ve been living near Valencia in Spain for more than 20 years already, born in Timisoara, Romania and currently working as a senior software developer.

In my free time I usually try to go outside and capture the beauty of the world through my camera or my drone.

Everything that I’ve learned is self-taught through tutorials, articles, blogs, videos, etc. I’m always experimenting with new shooting and post-processing techniques, trying to mix them together to create my own style.
