Impressions of Belgrade and Serbia and maybe photos from an in-country trip by a long-term ex-pat.

SKYWATCH--big fat orange moon
The last of my Belgrade photos for a while, until February to be exact, while I am in the US.
This was taken in Belgrade during the last Red Moon....quite an eye-catcher.

FEEDING MY LAUNDRY FETISH
Just for the heck of it, I was wondering if I am the only one with a laundry fetish. Not that I like to DO laundry, but I love to photograph it like this. I googled various forms of laundry fetish, photographers with laundry fetish, and so on, but only came up with sites I shouldn't publish here.
So I am apparently the only one with a 'I love laundry hung out to dry' fetish.
Maybe.

NOT YOUR ORDINARY WATCHDOG
Came across this little chap standing guard in a jewelry shop downtown.. I'm fairly certain he wouldn't care if anybody took the jewels; just so his mommy comes back.

SHADOW SHOT SUNDAY--dog days are gone
I took this photo two months ago, but it's good for today's SHADOW SHOT SUNDAY I liked the way he or she has her paws crossed.

SKYWATCH--"Black George" is watching
"Black George", better known here as Karadjordje, watches over the sky in front of St. Sava's Church in Belgrade. Saint Sava himself stands at the side door...

FOAM MAN
I like art that is made from recycled materials and such is the case of this foam rubber portrait. Catchy.

THE RED BALLOON HAS FLOATED INTO BELGRADE.
If you're 'over a certain age' or else just someone who likes classic films, you will remember Albert Lamorisse's 1956 film THE RED BALLOON that my mother took me to see when I was little. I later showed it to all levels of my French classes and depending on the children's age, they all saw some different meaning in it.
Worth watching. Only 35 minutes...

THE BUREK PLACE
Every city has some place where the whatever-it-is is better than the other shops. This is true of Belgrade. Burek is a baked, filled phyllo pasty (cheese, meat, cabbage, mushrooms....) and it has to be eaten hot! This place not far from me consistently has the best burek. It's so filling that I personally cannot eat it often, but some do.....always a big line in the early morning.
