HAIR ACCESSORIES


I love to browse the stalls at local markets. You can find just about anything there--clothing, shoes, socks, undies, jewelry, and hair accessories like these that I photographed from the other side of the canvas panel where they were displayed.

COMPOSITION IN RED, WHITE, AND BLUE


 The chair on the left now looks more orange....oh, well. I like the combination of thse colors along with the yellow wall.

TEAPOTS

We visited my favorite Serbian restaurant yesterday, and I took a shot of their one window (actually there are two like this) that faces one street. Someone either donated their entire collection of teapots, cups and saucers, sugar bowls, and creamers to the restaurant. They are all beautiful. This is just a close-up of one window.

MY FAVORITE SERBIAN RESTAURANT

This restaurant, RESTORAN VUK (pronounced 'vooook),') is my favorite Serbian restaurant. The link is only in Serbian, but you can check out its interior in color and drool over some of its cuisine. Classic, and I hope for many more years, an excellent old-world dining experience.

PRETTY IN THE BUS


 Up to my old tricks again with my 16-50mm lens, usually set at 16mm. This young woman was lost in thought and totally unaware of me sneaking a shot, my hands gently folded over the shutter button. Thank you, Nikon, for a completely noiseless shutter.....

A TOUCH OF SPRING


As I sat in the bus at its beginning stop downtown waiting for the driver to hop  back in and roll on (he'd been on a break), I noticed these tulips in the window of Hotel Amsterdam. The hotel itself is very unappealing from the outside, but I've just checked ITS WEBSITE, and the rooms are top-notch. Not bad tulips either.

TWO SHAVED HEADS


I was attracted first by the hairdo on the woman in the foreground, but when I looked more closely after taking the shot, there's another shaved head person walking away. Click and view this photo. She' got tattoos and lots of rings, too.

ON THE PHONE


 On the phone....and who isn't these days?  This elegant gentleman is engrossed in a conversation, but at least seems to watch where he's going. The lady in the background is checking her phone, too. I am guilty from time to time, but never walk while on the phone.

DARN GROUNDHOG


There is no custom here of a groundhog seeing its shadow on February 2, most likely because the groundhog is a North American animal. Be that as it may, in Pennsylvania Punxutawney Phil, the town's resident groundhog did indeed see his shadow. Seems like he's working internationally now for yesterday we got more snow.

LAST EVENING'S SUNSET


 I guess I should call this 'Essence of Sunset, ' since the sun itself is out of view. Its lovely colors filtered through my curtains. 

YORKIE DRESSED TO THE NINES

This little fellow was dressed for a photo shoot, haha, and he had his hair done, too. I looked up the expression 'dressed to the nines,' and couldn't find its exact origin, though most sites point to Scotland.
