Turquoise 6

They don't do these any more. Scânteia means 'the spark' and it used to be the name of the main newspaper in the country.
This almanac is dated not very long ago: the year I was born. I bought it in a second-hand bookstore. Because of 1975 and because bluish-turquoiseish. The cover is more on the bluish side, but does anyone care?
I had a hard time taking this photo. I find it quite difficult to shoot a book.

I concentrated so much on the words to see if I could translate any that I missed the obvious 1975 on the cover.

@monikozi thank you. You could obviously hear my brain struggling.

[Mags]

Interesting! It's cool to have something like this from the year you were born.

[Peter Dulis]

nice

[Ingrid]

Like Susan I was too distracted to see the 1975 at first too :)
Is this/are you Romanian? Looking at the flag, but don't think there was an emblem in it...

[moni kozi]

@ingrid01 Yes, Ingrid, both me and the almanac are Romanian. The emblem was rem9ved from the flag in 1989, after the fall of the communist regime.

[Diana]

It sounds like a great book and you captured it rather well. So you are only three years older than my eldest! Seems we both like turquoise very much ;-)

[borof]

A colour well suited to the series, a neat reproduction.

[Shutterbug]

I like the pov for a book shot. And I like anything turquoise or nearly so and I can’t see 1975 no matter how hard I look.

[Christina]

I had to look back to find the year as well - how cool to have that book for the year you were born.

[moni kozi]

@shutterbug49 Hahaaa!!! Debbie, it's the white shapes on the turquoise background.

[Pyrrhula]

You did very well. And no, I do n`t care. It`s a beautiful color enyhow.

[Yao RL]

At the end, you found a nice angle.

[Kathy A]

Books are hard to photograph but I think you found a good angle and it looks turquoise to me

[Ingrid]

@monikozi Thank you for your reply! Learnt something about your flag :)

[moni kozi]

@kjarn Well, i did put my nose into that :)

[moni kozi]

Now I really feel old. I have a daughter 6 years older than you. And thanks for the translation. Like several others, I got so caught up in trying to make sense of the Romanian that I missed the obvious - the big 1975.

[moni kozi]

@cdcook48 Neeeh... not old. A more experienced photographer...
Thank you!

[bruni]

An old book but of interest. thanks for the translation.

[moni kozi]

@bruni Thank you Bruni for commenting. At first i did not think that the text on the cover would be of any interest.
