A Yankee-in-Belgrade
Impressions of Belgrade and Serbia and maybe photos from an in-country trip by a long-term ex-pat.

HEELS
I'm afraid this shop is one of the last true shops of its kind. I can't remember the last time I needed this type of heel for my shoes.

STREET ACTION
Got off the bus on BRANKO'S BRIDGE, looked over the railing, and with my camera I froze all the action below.

ANTIQUE SHOP
I pass this antique shop quite often and have even sold a few things to them. To tell the truth, it isn't completely an antique shop anymore. It's been turned into a cozy cafe. Kind of an old-school feel....

SHARING
I watched this couple for quite a while. Each was engrossed in their phones....but then suddenly they shared something. A text, a photo, who knows? But it actually got them talking to each other....

PANORAMA FROM THE PARK
Weather permitting, I take my dog for a looong walk along the Danube in New Belgrade toward Old Belgrade. In this photo you can see, from left to right, Kalemegdan forteress, the steeple of the main church, the dome of the bishop's palace, waaay behind that the dome of St. Sava's temple, an old high-rise landmark, and the the far right, newly- constructed apartment buildings in an area called Belgrade Waterfront. In the foreground is a monument called The Eternal Flame.

TOOLS OF THE TRADE
Dropped by my framer's the other day to pick up two photographs I had framed. While he was wrapping them, I took a few photos around his shop. Here is one.

HINT OF SPRING
We're not that close to spring. Though it is just a month away, spring seems to take its good old time to really arrive.
Had some friends over last Saturday and one of them brought me these beautiful tulips. They were more attractive when fresh, but do quite nicely faded.
