NEGLECTED AND CARED FOR

 I took this photo because I liked the colors and arrangement. I sent it to an artist friend who sometimes uses my photos for inspiration.  She replied that she wondered what the story was behind these blooming potted plants, and the shabby window and neglected facade. Now I do, too.

FEET MEET

 Looks like a lot of young feet, too. Probably discussing where they're going to go on a hot summer evening.

PAST GLORY

 I don't go down this street often, but every time I do I stop and look at this door and its magnificent decoration above the lintel. (I learned a new word...that's the flat 'shelf' the oval decoration is mounted on.)

Once-upon-a-time this entire building stood proud, but now, like quite a few here, it's fallen into disrepair. 

MONDAY MURALS: Zappa Barge

 Not sure if this barge alongside the main bridge connecting New and Old Belgrade still functions. Not sure either if all those people are murals or posters... I'm hoping there's at least one mural so I can participate in MONDAY MURALS.

SHADOW SHOT SUNDAY---in the garage....

 In New Belgrade there are many underground garages under high-rise buildings. They're illuiminated, but still kind of spooky. Quite a few scenes from local and foreign gangster movies have been filmed in them. I took a shortcut to the supermarket through one and found this shadow.

See other shadows on SHADOW SHOT SUNDAY.

HANGIN' AROUND

 A couple of street musicians hanging around under the statue of Prince Mihailo on Belgrade's Republic Square.  The plaques read Belgrade, Smederevo, and Kladovo, some of the cities liberated by Prince Mihailo in 1867.  Other cities have plaques on the other sides.

SKYWATCH--awaiting the sunset

 Have to say that the sunset the other night was nothing to write home about...but the photo is good enough to please those who follow SKYWATCH.

THE THIN MAN

 Not The Thin Man film, but just a man who somehow disappeared behind this pole....

CHILLIN' IN THE PARK

 

Yesterday I showed you "CHILLIN' AT THE MARKET and today here is a fellow doing the same in a nearby park. I do not blame him one bit. It's one of the coolest places around, an oasis in the city.

CHILLIN' AT THE MARKET

 Still hot, and I thought this fellow was overdressed, except for his sandals.

THEME DAY--AUGUST--WOOD

 I was caught off-guard (my fault entirely) since I thought this month's theme was Time Travel, but that's next month.  I reverted that post to 'draft'. 

Anyway, here is a photo taken in Discovery Park, Seattle, about two years ago. I think it's a magnolia tree, judging by the leaves. 

Grandkids had fun climbing on it.
