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

PAPERWHITE NARCISSUS
Continuing my self-imposed Monochrome Month of March Meme. These lovely paper white narcissus brighten my day. It's been raining and gloomy.

HAPPY INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY
Today, March 8th, is International Women's Day, though for me, every day is Women's Day.
Looks like the ladies haven't hit this bar yet, but it is now only 8:23 a.m. as I type.

SUGAR BOWL IN MY FAVORITE CAFE
Continuing with my self-imposed Monochrome Month of March meme, here is a sugar bowl in my favorite cafe. Actually, I should revise that to say it is my favorite cafe in the morning hours when I usually go. I took this photo around 5 p.m. Maajor traffic, stinky and noisy, on the street, so I imagine that is why no one else was sitting there.
But I got a good photo...

OFFICE CHAIR
Continuing with my own Monochrome Month of March meme, this is not your typical office chair. However, it is used every single weekday, Saturdays, and sometimes Sundays by a woman selling cheap clothing at her stand on an outdoor market. Doesn't look comfortable at all, and she needs a real cushion.

NIGHT KITTY
I am not a cat lover, although I have known some cats that I like. In general though, for me they're too quiet and sneak up on me. This one came out of the doorway and gave me the evil eye....or so it seemed.
This photo is in keeping with my Monochrome Month of March meme.

NIGHT TEXTER THROUGH WINDOW
Some may not agree, but I've always maintained that if you don't draw your curtains, I can take your photo. And I did, in this case catching a woman oblivious to my presence outside. In reality, I find most texters when outside are oblivious to presences outside as well.

NOBODY'S HUNGRY
(In keeping with my own Monochrome Month of March meme.)
A 'Smash Burger' employee taking a break. No customers, at least for a short while.

BLONDE IN A DARK ALLEY
March already. Somewhere along the line, in an alliterative mode, I decided to do a "Monochrome Month of March" series, meaning that (with the exception of Theme Day yesterday), I am going to try to (notice the 'try to') post a monocrhome photo every day this month. This means that photos will either be black and white or as otherwise defined "a photography or picture developed or executed in black and white OR in varying tones of only one color."
Let's see what 'develops'.

THEME DAY MARCH 2024--REFLECTIONS IN A WINDOW
Today is March 1st and the theme for March is 'Reflections in a window'. Here some street players can be seen playing their instruments in front of an H&M window, with those letters reflected from the black wall to the display window behind them.
See other reflections on MARCH 2024 THEME DAY.

THE END IS NEAR
I have posted this old house before but hadn't been back in a while. Looks like now it really is going to be torn down.

HELPING HANDS
Caught this elderly couple carefully walking down slippery stones beside one of Belgrade's main churches, Saint Marko's.

PRACTICAL OR DECORATIVE?
This is the ceiling of a passage leading to a park under a building in my neighborhood. I have no idea at all why these oddly-arranged egg ...
