Wild Weekend
Hmmm...what's the story behind this black bra strapped onto a lamp post in Tasmajdan Park? Looks like a bird visited the bra before I saw it, too.

THEME DAY--Pink!
Some days the Fates smile upon me. Upon learning that the September theme for City Daily Photo blogs is pink, I set out in search of....pink. It's not the best time of year to look for this color, but lo and behold, whom did I find on Belgrade's Bohemian quarter street, Skadarlija, but a Belgrade legend, Zika Obretkovic. I tried sneaking a shot of him, but he saw me, and said, "Take a REAL photo, please!" and posed with Bibi, who was sporting her pink collar. Zika has been around 'forever', walking around Belgrade's center, making people happy, and playing his flute, like he does on the link below.
And today he was wearing pink!

WEEKEND REFLECTION--Gaudi in Belgrade?
These reflections on a building on Dobracina Street downtown reminded me of the architectural designs of Antonio Gaudi.

SKYWATCH--looking west
The light really was this odd, sepia tone, probably due to the atmospheric conditions and intense heat when I took the photo.

Those nails...and the hair....
This lady definitely caught my eye the other day. At first it was her hair, but then I noticed her nails....
She wasn't a young woman either....are you bold enough to wear your hair like this, at any age?

ABC WEDNESDAY "G" is for "Garfield"
I'm not sure if Garfield has ever visited the Belgrade zoo, but someone thought he deserved his own mosaic on the zoo's outside wall, along with some of the other animals pictured below.
See more G's on ABC WEDNESDAY.

Lemme see, lemme see!
I watched this delightful little coquette have her photo taken by her father on his iphone (is that what it is...?) and then they sat down and enjoyed the results.

The tennis instructor...
This tennis instructor is probably telling the two young girls that they're too close to the net. He was awfully cute, so I can't say I blame them for wanting a closer look... ;-)

SUNDAY BRIDGES--the bridge to Pancevo
Lots of flowers and not much traffic on the bridge to the town of Pancevo, 12 kilometers from Belgrade.

The beer garden
Cell phone photo again in a nearby beer garden. Yes, that's a glass of wine. I am unconventional.

SKYWATCH--the sun sets, literally and figuratively
Many people, young and old, gather to watch the sunset from Kalemegdan Park.
The sun sets today on the fifth anniversary of my husband's passing.

COLOR-COORDINATED
This red pepper and tomato seller had it all thought out when she decided to wear her red sandals...
