DAMSELFLY

 Well, I learned something  on my recent trip to Valjevo, about 70 kms away. I finally was able to capture what I thought was a dragonfly. It flitted here and there and was nearly impossible to photograph. But I did!  I wanted to place a dragonfly link here, but lo and behold, I found out while reading it that dragonflies and damselflies are often confused. So, this is a damselfly and you can read about him or her RIGHT HERE. I guess there are 'boy' damselflies like there are 'boy' ladybugs....

FIFTY SHADES OF GREEN

Unlike the 2015 romantic erotic novel with another color in its name, here are for sure 50 shades of green. I didn't count them, but I bet they're there.

This is a forest in the Gradac area near Valjevo, Serbia, about 70 kilometers from Belgrade, where I recently spent a few days.

HANGING OUT THE LAUNDRY

This scene is not  an extraordinary shot, but something told me to snap a photo. Then I realized that perhaps it was because you hardly ever see men hanging out laundry. Am I right?

HE AND ALL HIS BELONGINGS

 I honestly con't have a comment for this photo other than this fellow did not come across as a usual street person. I wonder what his story is.

CHIEN HEUREUX

 This French dog seemed to be thrilled sitting at a red light.

LENS BALL NOT SO GREAT

 Terrace window. I have got to do better....

DARK FACADE

 The gate and tower on this facade resemble those in nearby Kalemegdan  Park, but no explanation anywhere on the building why.

LAMP POST AND PIGEON

 Just what the title says, plus some flowers.

A PUFF OUTSIDE THE BAKERY

PARASOL

 I have been seeing more parasols this summer than I ever have before. I don't use one myself, but ladies, do you resort to a parasol to ward off the sun's rays?

GUARDING THE SHOP

 A good guard dog is any dog that barks a lot. I think the  one on the chair would be good at that; if not, the Frenchie is a back-up.
