Generation Gap


Nada (means hope in Serbian) is selling flowers on the streets of Belgrade to support her grand children's education. She picks fresh flowers in the nearby forest and takes the bus to the city everyday hoping to make a sale. I've noticed her from across the street standing on corner in her red shoes. She was holding her flowers very gently while whispering sales pitches to the passers by. After few shots I've approached her and asked if I could take a closeup portrait. Nada is Serbia.

Violinist


Violinist Belgrade Serbia

He looked vulnerable but strong. Sitting on a small wooden chair, playing tirelessly without stopping made me think of his youth. Where was he from? What made him come and play here? Was he alone? I dared not to ask.

Hope



it took me a while to figure out how to name this image. i usually can come up with names for photos within seconds. this one is special.

hope is what i saw. hope was coming in a shape of a jeep. the jeep was about to save me from thirst. the cactus flower was so beautiful. the flower looked so juicy i thought of eating it. then i thought of preserving it in the salt from the desert it was raised from.

finally, i've decided to let it be. the wind was it's hope.

hope to see this place again.

Construction Collage


As I was waling back to the office after lunch I've stumbled upon this interesting collage in the heart of downtown Washington DC. At the bottom left is a historic district tourist board with a map of a Washington Heritage Trail and a portrait of President Lincoln. At the center is a locked red construction toilet owned by The Royal Throne. I find that to be a funny name for the related business:) All the way in the back is a huge crane lifting and moving heavy weights in suspension. Finally, I like the dimensions and the depth of the photograph so thought you may like it as well:)
