IT' NOT WHAT YOU LOOK AT......

 Henry David Thoreau, American naturalist and essayist said in his journal in August 1851, "The question is not what you look at, but what you see."  

 I've always found this very true, especially for photographers. This photo is one I've stuck in my 'urban accidental art' file.

ORANGE PART II

 If you read my post yesterday, you'll see I have succumbed to one of my fetishes again.

ORANGE

 I am beginning to realize I have a chairs/symmetry fetish to add to my laundry fetish, since I know I have posted many photos on those themes. Here's another! 

SCALES OR WATER TOWER/FOUNTAIN?

 

Somebody in the government is hell-bent on imposing cultural monuments around town. These scales stand in the 'terazije' secton of downtown. 'Terazije' does mean scales, implying the kind you see at villagearkets, but the Internet gibes us another more likely meaning: "Terazije street began as a 19th-century settlement established by Prince Miloš Obrenović. Its name derives from the Ottoman Turkish word for "water tower" or "water scale". The Ottomans built these towers at specific intervals to distribute and elevate water pressure, and one such tower stood precisely where the Terazije Fountain stands." A recreation of this fountain is  visible in the background. 

A WALK IN THE HEAT

 Too hot, and I didn't go far. Nice to see someone is taking care of their flowers.

TWILIGHT TIME

 Hi! I haven't posted for six weeks; been in the US but am now back in Belgrade. 

I am going to take a possibly long break from photoblogging so I can devote more time to finishing my 'memoirs'. Need to write more, organize ...but I'll be back!

SPRING PREPARES FOR FALL

 Title says it all! 

THE STRIDING NUN

 Striding along from Kalemegdan Park heading down the pedestrian street downtown. She looks happy!

SMALL BUT FIERCE....MAYBE

 This little fellow didn't seem too fierce, but one never knows with Chihuahuas!

WOULD I OR WOULDN'T I?

 I am intrigued by tatoos, I have to admit. I often wonder if I would have ever gotten one ...but then I guess there's still time. This fellow has a plethora of interesting ones,  Just below his sleeve is the Serbian letter for the 'dj' sound as in 'George'.
