Spying across the street....
I am an incurable Peeping Tom....but am I really? If you're sitting where everyone can see you, maybe I am not. In any case, while this lady is surrounded by flowers, I am sure she'd love to have this terrace.

SHADOW SHOT SUNDAY--dozing
A flashback to a couple of years ago, since I don't have a recent Belgrade shadow.
This fellow was dozing in the airplane on his way to Marseille, France

WEEKEND REFLECTIONS on a pitcher, in a glass
A recent road trip led me to a wonderful ethno-restaurant in the northern Serbian town of Bač (rhymes with 'watch').
Here's my glass, awaiting wine, with a pitcher of water behind it.

SKYWATCH--across the river view to town
The bird also has a view of the side of the river where I was when I took this picture....

A little corner of paradise
For the most part, many of Belgrade's older buildings are sad-looking. Grey, crumbling facades, grafitti.... The one seems fairly well kept-up, and has been enhanced by someone's little garden.

MONDAY MURAlS in Odzaci
Yesterday I went on a road trip with some friends to the northern part of Serbia, a region called Vojvodina (VOY-vuh-dee-na). We ended our trip there before returning to Belgrade with a visit to an ice cream store in Odzaci (UD-jah-tsee), next to which this large mural (actually a mosaic, but I'm desperate) was created.

SHADOW SHOT SUNDAY--triangles
I was sitting with a friend on the terrace of Hotel Moskva, sipping a lemonade and wondering where I'd find a shadow shot for today's post.
And all of a sudden, there it was, right in front of me. Actually, it was across the street a bit, but thanks to my 300mm lens, here it is close-up.

DANCING IN THE DARK
Walking back home from viewing the eclipse the other night, I passed these young people in our park.
