Theme Day--Spheres/Circles: It's NOT from outer space!

Nope, I didn't have a close encounter of any kind with a spaceship. This is the ceiling of the main exposition hall at Belgrade's Fairgrounds, but it sure does look as if little green men could descend from it....

Note: the circles you see are not light bulbs, but little windows that let the light shine through.

Good seeing . . . I would never have guessed what this was.

A very effective image which came as a complete shock when I opened the portal. Well done Bibi.

I like this one a lot - the pattern of circular dots is very appealing. Are those lights, or is that sky showing through?

I would certainly not want to be responsible for replacing light bulbs here! Sphere and circle rolled into one! Nice, Bibi.

That should be enough circles to fill the bill for our theme. Exceptional image, Bibi, of some very inspiring architecture!

Thanks for the comment and link on the Serbian cyrillic alphabet.

It definitely has an out of space feel. One of the more unusual interpretaions on the theme which I have to say I am enjoying.

That shows that architecture with simple twists can achieve big...
I love the shot!

How extraordinary and beautiful. Must be so effective to see this in reality, as in your lovely photograph. Great choice. Just look at all those circles!

Saretta said...

I couldn't see a circle at first...then I realised it's all circles!

It's a very nice graphical shot, Bibi! Wish you a lovely Tuesday!

Btw, I like the Inspirational Lotus Pond widget you have. Especially when I clicked on the lotus and it blooms. Beautiful, indeed!

REALLY beautiful & perfect for theme day! I enlarged it and would scroll up & down - very fun effect of motion in a circle too.

CROSS-CULTURE BREAKFAST

  Have been in India one week. I brought my hostess some ajvar, which she found goes very well on a chapati.
