WEEKEND REFLECTION--and the other choice is...?

The top sign reads, 'We don't accept advertising material."  That's fine.

The bottom sign reads, "The door is locked. Please use your key or the intercom!"

And the other choice is...break down the door?  Oh....

He's back....in black....

Remember this fellow whom I showed you a few weeks back?  He was dressed in a white suit before, but now he's a Man in Black. He drives a taxi....with style.

Felt sorry for poochie


I felt so sorry for this little Pekinese (disguised as a lion, apparently, with mistress-matching coat to boot).  He didn't want to move and was dragged along several meters and then just stopped.  Too embarrassed, I imagine, to parade himself along Belgrade's pedestrian street, Knez Mihailova.

Unlike his mistress, who was urging him along in not so pleasant terms, oblivious to those around her, he caught my attention.  I sneaked a  hip shot of her and her unhappy companion.

Up we go

A week or so ago I attended a photo exhibit at the Artget Gallery just off of Republic Square downtown.  Would you believe I didn't have my camera with me to snap these workers putting up holiday lights? Hard to believe, I know and I was kicking myself for almost missing this shot, but then I remembered I have a cell  phone!

So saved by the bell, or rather, cell.

Under the arch

A group of people passes under a bridge of Kalemegdan fortress.

Weekend Reflections: The walker

Handsome fellow, I think, walking along a street parallel to Belgrade's pedestrian street, Knez Mihailova.

Priest goes for a walk

A Serbian Orthodox priest begins to descend stairs in Kalemegdan Park, overlooking New Belgrade.

Forgive my absence from commenting this past week. I may be a bit longer in returning; a death in the family requires my attention.

ABC WEDNESDAY--"U" is for "Upper part cut..."

Those of you who regularly read my blog know that I am fairly good at hip shots, taken on the sly from just below waist level.  Sometimes I get nervous....and miss part of the photo, as I did here, but I thought the rest of it was too good to pass up.

I really need to learn in Photoshop how to touch up a photo like this. I am usually averse to such touching up, but this lady is missing part of her 'coiffure'....

See other U's on   ABC WEDNESDAY.

FORGOT HIS GLASSES?

It's possible he's squinting because he forgot his glasses, but maybe it was because it was so sunny. 90+ degrees (32c) yesterday......
