The last three.....

Passed this bakery in early afternoon a couple of weeks ago.....the only loaves left..... 

SHADOW SHOT--the blue parasol

I am now in Seattle where I had expected rain, but haven't seen it yet.  Serbia is undergoing heavy flooding, the worst in 120 years.

Though the Sava river here appears muddy where it joins the Danube, indicating rains upstream, the day I took this photo about two weeks ago was sunny, and this umbrella was used as a parasol.

WEEKEND REFLECTIONS--lamp post....

I am currently in the US and will be posting from Seattle soon.  Serbia is now having the worst rains it's had for 120 years....  This photo was taken a few weeks ago when it was had rained, but not nearly as hard.

SKYWATCH--Usce Tower, Genex towers, and a crow.

A sunset.... See other skies on SKYWATCH.

"Hejt" No More

Serbian is a phonetic language and 'j' is pronounced as a 'yuh', so 'hejt' is pronounced 'hate'. Not sure if this was an accidental misspelling, or if 'hejt' refers to something else...dunno what.

No haiku for a while. I am physically now in the US, but in cyberspace I'll be in Belgrade for another week!  Just to get over jet-lag....then photos of Seattle.

ABC WEDNESDAY--"R" is for (Dusko) Radovic

Dusko Radovic was a children's writer, journalist, poet and aphorist, and I remember him fondly. He died in 1984, and this is a photo of his newly-renovated children's theater, with St. Marko' Cathedral behind it.

See other Rs on Mrs. Nesbitt's ABC WEDNESDAY. Sorry---no haiku.

One sits, one gazes

Wall art and street sitter.

Daily Haiku

Two street artists

One forms his thoughts on paper

One in his mind’s eye

 

The squirrel from hell

A man was feeding this squirrel the other day in the park, and some others were taking photos. I joined in.  From my angle he appeared a bit dark, so I used the flash....with this result. I was going to correct the squirrel's hellish eyes, but then I remembered this post.

Daily Haiku

Gray bristly tail and ears

Nuts over nuts he chatters

My friend the squirrel

Shadow Shot Sunday Students' Park sidewalk

Shadows cast by wall decorations and through grillwork in the walls surrounding Students' Park in Belgrade.

See other shadows on Shadow Shot Sunday. 

You can see these wall ornaments here and the grillwork here.

 

Daily Haiku

Shadows are reborn

When the sun sinks they rise and

Lie cool in moonlight

 

WEEKEND REFLECTIONS--The Military Museum Tower...twice

Recent rain left this nice puddle....and a reflection of the tower of the Military Museum.

Daily Haiku

Two towers you see

Puddle dries up; now there’s one

Nature’s undoing

 

SKYWATCH--You're being watched....

A drone!  I snapped this little guy who was filming the Belgrade Marathon the other week.  Is it my imagination, or does he have an evil little grin on his face?
