Forward. Progress. Reflect on what matters. One step forward, two back? Sometimes, to move forward, we need to look back, reflect, think about what really matters. And then, when we know, celebrate what we believe in. Will we celebrate the mirror, or what we see reflected in it? This is my response to the latest … Continue reading Weekly Photo Challenge: Forward

My response is an attempt to illustrate the beautiful words of a poem penned in 1956 by Branko Miljković with images from belgradestreets. Words introduced to me today.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Home
The afternoon sun did not warm him. The families passing by in the park, laughing, playing, shouting, did not register. Could it get worse? What should he do? Thoughts of home weighed heavy on his mind. This is my response to the latest Weekly Photo Challenge from The Daily Post at WordPress.

hidden places on belgradestreets
Wandering off the beaten track is rewarding. Walking along belgradestreets, the range of shops first struck me as disappointing. What takes time is the gradual realisation that many shops, cafes and bars are located, not on prime sites on the big boulevards, but in alley ways, underpasses and along passageways that often open up into … Continue reading hidden places on belgradestreets

happy new year from belgradestreets
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?

the world didn’t end

first snow…
The snow has come early this year! These images were snatched on my iPhone earlier today, just wanted to share the impact of the heavy snow over the weekend. Temperatures well below freezing, forecast to be -12C tonight. All those years when, as a child, I prayed for a "White" Christmas seem so long ago … Continue reading first snow…

novo groblje
The dead are never alone on belgradestreets. These images were captured during a walk around belgradestreets this weekend. I had heard much about the "new cemetery" and decided it was time to visit. Not one cemetery but a complex of interlinked resting places. The cemetery opened in 1886 after that in Tašmajden closed and is … Continue reading novo groblje
