BLONDE IN A DARK ALLEY

 March already. Somewhere along the line, in an alliterative mode, I decided to do a "Monochrome Month of March" series, meaning that (with the exception of Theme Day yesterday), I am going to try to (notice the 'try to') post a monocrhome photo every day this month.  This means that photos will either be black and white or as otherwise defined "a photography or picture developed or executed in black and white OR in varying tones  of only one color."

Let's see what 'develops'.

THEME DAY MARCH 2024--REFLECTIONS IN A WINDOW

 Today is March 1st and the theme for March is 'Reflections in a window'. Here some street players can be seen playing their instruments in front of an H&M window, with those letters reflected from the black wall to the display window behind them.

THE END IS NEAR

 

I have posted this old house before but hadn't been back in a while. Looks like now it really is going to be torn down. 

HELPING HANDS

 Caught this elderly couple carefully walking down slippery stones beside one of Belgrade's main churches, Saint Marko's.

WALKING THE DOG

 Walking the dog....right past the liquor store.

"YOU DON'T SAY!"

 I love the mother's expression ....

GUY LOOKING FOR BRIDE

 The title 'Guy looking for bride' would be the literal translation of part of the red print on the sign

 The other in blue would be 'Inquire within'. Sign's been there for a while....no luck, I guess. 

WOOD PAVING

 

My friend pointed out this entrance to a building on a street I'd passed many times. The large metal entrance gate was open this time, and I guess that's why I was never able to see the inside of this passage leading past the actuall entrance to a garden.

What was most interesting is the wood paving. These are 'bricks' made of wood and apparently they last a loooooong time.  I googled 'wood paving' and it is used more often than you think.

SKYWATCH: TREE, MOON, PASTELS

 Just what the title says, nothing more. I stood and took in the beauty for several minutes.

See other skies on SKYWATCH.

SLEEPING IT OFF

 Seems like this holiday gnome has had one long season....too much holiday cheer. I'll check and see if he's still there tomorrow....

CONVERSATION....

 A definite lack of any conversation and so it was the entire time this couple 'enjoyed' their meal at my local Indian restaurant. Not a word was exchanged. I was morbidly fascinated...and saddened. In this photo, the fellow had just put his phone down and perhaps was hoping for a word from his partner, but no.
