WEEKEND REFLECTIONS--disappearing


Balkanska Street downtown used to be known for its many artisan shops like this leather shop. There were milliners, sewing shops, all kinds of places where you could find just what you want.  These shops have for the most part disappeared.

These dog collars are not state-of-the-art, but do the job.

At first I noticed the holsters and had a hard time putting that together with dog collars. It all made me think of that segment on Sesame Street: Which of these things doesn't belong? Anyway, it's a cool reflection. :~}
