No matter how hard I try....

No matter how hard I try to sneak a picture of this cat in the window across the street, he (or maybe she) always, always sees me....

MONDAY MURALS=='creative 'marketing'

These markets of one of Belgrade's main markets make a bit of creative 'market-ing'.

The doorway to heaven?

This beautiful passageway in downtown Belgrade reminded me of what walking toward the Pearly Gates must  be like.

ABC WEDNESDAY--"G" is for "granny"

Here I am shooting people on their balconies again.  I showed you this granny a while back, and here she is again looking a bit more spruced up.

I think she needs a new pair of glasses, though.

MONDAY MURALS --Father of Serbian Folklore

 VUK KARADZIC was a philologist, linguist, and more importantly, a reformer of the Serbian language. He established the 'one letter, one sound' rule, meaning that one letter could only be pronounced in one way.  If you see the letter A (either in Cyrillic or Latin representation, you know it is pronounced 'ah', and not '/ae/ or /ǝ/, for example.  For his study of Serbian songs, poetry, riddles, and tales, he is also known as the Father of Serbian Folklore. 

In the above mural, he looks like he's eyeing that bread basket... "Vuk" means "wolf", so perhaps he's as hungry as one.

WEEKEND REFLECTIONS---near Slavija Circle

I've shown this multi-windowed building several times because of its reflections. Never caught it from this angle before.

See other reflections on James' WEEKEND REFLECTIONS.

Time for me to be looking west again...soon off to see my daughter in the US.  Thia ia looking west fro my son's terrace, in the direction of Belgrade Airport.
