White (?) roses


Someone placed these white, but now dirty gray roses, on this metal grill around a tree.  Why, I don't know.

Joan Baez live


I'd have been so sorry if I hadn't gone.  Joan Baez has only improved over the years, and at the age of 73, she's better than ever. Her concert last night here in Belgrade brought the audience to its feet several times, and just when I'd given up on her singing Donna, Donna, she came back and sang it as one of her three encore songs.

Making an impression


I am not sure whether this shoe print was intended to look like a tennis racket...sort of....but it looks like one to me.  Caught my eye anyway.  And I guess that's the maker's point, if anyone really cares if their soles make an impression of either kind.

Dancing the kolo




Two weeks ago in Tasmajdan Park there was the annual Honey Fair.  There's always music and dancing, too, as you can see by this group of young dancers performing traditional dances, including the ever-and-most popular kolo.

No time to talk?


People have lots of time to talk, but probably few use these 'real' phones anymore...

I don't even have a fixed phone and can't remember when I last used a phone booth.  How about you?

SHADOW SHOT SUNDAY - "LAV" MAKES THE WORLD GO 'ROUND



Shadows of leaves, stubbornly still clinging to a nearby tree, seen through the canvas umbrellas advertising LAV (lion) beer.

SKYWATCH--the Modern Art Museum


Snapped this sunset behind the Modern Art Museum in New Belgrade from across the river from the same vantage point about an hour or so after I took this photograph.
