Feeding the pigeons

I remember feeding the pigeons and the squirrels in a park in my home town.  I never see many children doing that here, but many older citizens share their stale bread with the birds.

ABC WEDNESDAY--"Q" is for "quiet observers'

Two ladies enjoying a smoke and a cocktail furtively observe this young man and his pizza....hungry maybe.

THEME DAY--OUT OF FOCUS

November's theme day is Out of Focus and here's mine, taken a while ago when it was raining (weather's great now, but nippy).

MONDAY MURALS--Savamala

Another one from last summer, but it's still there!

This beautiful mural decorates part of the long walkway on an up-and-coming chic area in Belgrade, Savamala.

SHADOW SHOT SUNDAY--up on the roof...

It really has been a long time since I've posted....  I don't have any recent shadow shots, so this one of my granddaughter Mila from last summer will have to do.

My very good friend has a rooftop terrace, and to escape the summer heat she invited Mila and me to cool off. Mila stripped to her underwear while I just got my feet wet.....  The green cloth served as a sunscreen.

WEEKEND REFLECTIONS--Hotel Majestic

Hotel Majestic in Belgrade has had its interior renovated, not that you can tell from this photo I snapped with my Minox camera.

SKYWATCH--southwestern Serbia

Well, I'm back, and none too soon. Haven't posted since July....  So many things were going on, and I just needed a break.

Two weeks ago I took a trip through southwestern Serbia and encountered some stunning landscapes, many of which were taken from a moving vehicle...

I've lost my blojo....

I was going to write that I've lost my mojo, but didn't even have a photo to illustrate it, so I googled.

Came up with 'blojo' instead, which is defined above.

I doubt if I've lost it completely, but more likely misplaced it...  Partly due to still organizing my endless India photos, and I am one of those people who likes to finish one job, then move on...

So bear with me. Yankee will return at some point, with a refreshed blojo.

Back in India

Well, physically I am not in India, but feel like it....I'm still organizing photos.

No Belgrade sky today; this is the sunset on the evening I still had miles to go before I sleep on the way to Leh, in Ladakh region, India.

Colors

Took a walk the other day through  Belgrade's Bohemian quarter, and these colors caught my eye.
