The hat shop

This is one of those shots taken totally without looking, a hip shot, lest the woman notice me.

Turned out pretty well, I think.

Jovan Ćirilov

Came across this mural of the late Serbian theater expert, philosopher, writer, theater selector, poet, and significant contributor to Serbian culture, Jovan Ćirilov, who died on this day in 2014.

WEEKEND REFLECTIONS--paddling through a reflection

Two males and a female duck paddle their way through a reflection from a floating restaurant on the Sava river in Belgrade.

Skywatch--Beware the comet!

Not a real comet, but a jet plane, I think, or perhaps I've spotted a UFO and didn't know it.

I opted to say it was a comet, since today is Friday the 13th...  Historically, comets were thought to be harbingers of bad luck.  For example, the Bayeux Tapestry shows a comet when Harold of Essex snatched the English throne from William of Normandy, soon to be known as The Conqueror.

Are you superstitious?  Will you be cautious today?

"Who" lives here?

"Whose" house this is I do not know, but I like their mailboxes.

ABC WEDNESDAY-- "R" is for "red"

I think this lady looks rather elegant, though she did turn a few heads.

Today is REMEMBRANCE OR ARMISTICE DAY," celebrated by wearing a bright red poppy.

See other Rs on Mrs. Nesbitt's ABC WEDNESDAY.

Nature's still life

I liked the arrangement of this large lichen on a stone in Kalemegdan Park.

Closing time

I often pass by this cafe with chairs stacked up after closing time.  I like these old-style wooden chairs.

SHADOW SHOT SUNDAY--rain spout and fence

Just what the title says!

See other shadows on SHADOW SHOT SUNDAY.

WEEKEND REFLECTIONS--Trash collectors

When I was a child, we called the men who came to pick up the garbage 'garbage men,' a term which makes me cringe now.  'Sanitation' worker sounds too pretentious, so I've settled for 'trash collector,' hoping that won't sound like it's someone who actually makes a collection of trash.  :-0

SKYWATCH--another one of the bridge

Another one of the Bridge over Ada, with the tower that remains from the original Belgrade World's Fairground....later turned into a concentration camp watch tower.
