Standing alone, watching life blazing by, the man standing on the corner thinks about his next step across the road. What will he find on the other side? How many people will be alone tonight as the New Year bursts upon us? Watching the lights flash past, life rushing by. So, as you pop the … Continue reading happy new year from belgradestreets

Weekly Photo Challenge: Surprise
My contribution to this week's WordPress Weekly Photo Challenge. The theme this week "surprise". This photo appeared in my last regular post. Sometimes beauty can surprise us. It comes from nowhere, we find it when we are not looking for it. Like love. In this case, a puddle on the street, a street covered with … Continue reading Weekly Photo Challenge: Surprise

christmas comes to belgradestreets
It is not Christmas Day this week on belgradestreets. At least not officially, Christmas comes to Serbia on 7 January, after New Year. Which for an expat living in town is quiet special because one gets two Christmas days to celebrate. Christmas has always been a special time for me. The long gone days when, … Continue reading christmas comes to belgradestreets

Čavketov pasaž
belgradestreets are full of surprises and joy. Tucked away between streets, behind gates, mystery and beauty await those who are prepared to find, those who have a guide to show. Čavketov pasaž would be ignored by most, not even found my most. It rewards examination. My first feelings on arriving on belgradestreets were not positive, … Continue reading Čavketov pasaž

the world didn’t end
All those people who travelled today to far-flung places to seek the protection of aliens from the long foreshadowed end of the world went to the wrong place. Here on Knez Mihaila we have our very own pyramid. I arrived early this morning to capture the crowds waiting for the apocalypse and the appearance of … Continue reading the world didn’t end

Road to nowhere, by Nemanja Jovanović
I've been very busy this last week... Hope to get some posts out soon, alleyways and graffiti for Christmas perhaps. For now, please check out this great post from Nemanja Jovanović, one of six great documentary photographers who make up Belgrade's Kamerades photo collective. Gritty, powerful and challenging work.

Belgrade for the holidays – by real housewife of belgrade
Thank you so much to the “real housewife of belgrade” for this post which mentions ‘belgradestreets’ the book, much appreciated!
Looking for a gift for a certain special Serbian? Here are two options for anyone missing, or curious to see, a bit of Belgrade.
The first is from fellow Belgrade blogger Andy Townend, who published a book this year featuring his gorgeous shots of the White City.
Unfortunately, the book is currently only available in Serbian bookstores. There’s an option to order it through the Delfi website, but a bit of Serbian is needed to order, and I’m not sure that the book will ship internationally. Check out his blog, http://www.belgradestreets.com, for a free fix until your next visit to a knjižara.
For those without access to Belgrade bookstores, there’s another photography book that’s easily accessible for Americans. Streetartlove.rs/belgrade by Marko Todorovic features Belgrade street art from 2005-2010. It’s a different vibe from Belgrade streets, but just as beautiful. When used with a smart phone, the book also reveals interviews and…
