... let's start early in the morning ... with the fresh air with a nice, gentle dose of humidity ...
... here on the narrow street that goes from the church on the hill, flows by my house, and leads to the sea ...
... summer is still here and later the day will be pretty warm, almost hot ...
... a bit further down the street, from some angle, you can see a stop sign covering a window of an old yellow house ...
... if you move a bit to the left, there will be a blue walking sign covering the same window ...
... a few years ago this sign was a bit different, you could see some artistic interventions on it back then ...
... and here is a bit enlarged cross of two narrow streets with not much traffic, so it looks almost like a little square ...
... very near ... a flower, and a feather ... on the wet asphalt ... but let,s go a bit back in time ... it's dawn again ...
... and someone has put a modern penthouse on sell ... very near the old house that is emanating a different atmosphere...... you can come across many amazing things
... here in this town that I usually call '' my town'' like I'm the only owner ... things like this traffic sign reflected in the sea ...
... or a giant trout flying between the houses ... you can see strange ...
mysterious things ... a 1.floor window entrance on a bakery, ad example ...
Down in the bay, an old, traditional boat. Stranded near the luxury hotel.
In the center - the municipal building. Rosy as the future that lies ahead.
Swarm of black coots under some new apartment buildings on the bay.
The water here is very shallow ...
... so when the tide is very low ...
... the small boats are steering on the mud ...
... a hundred or so meters from there ...
... near the main port, the tall ornamental grass is swaying on the wind.
And so is the big old palm in the narrow street near the main square.
The palm grows near an old house. Old, abandoned house.
A very cool, and kind of mysterious place.
A short look at the sky ... then another lovely old house.
And a new house attached. This one is also pretty photogenic ...
... although in a pretty different way ... a bit further ...
... an old house ... reflected in the mirror windows of a new one.
A last look at that street in the mirror of a parked car.
The main square, town's center. And on the picture below, a lovely ...
... blue insect, a cicada relative ... on the church's facade.
Another little church, in the small street not far from the main square.
A little plant growing in the metal cover on the asphalt. Must be ...
some access to the water underneath the street - VODA means water.
These covers look much better with a bit of green on them.
Fairytale apartments to fulfill some summer dreams.
The elegant silhouette of an ordinary streetlamp.
The very common... and very fast & agile ...
... wall lizard ... basking in the morning sun ...
A broken window ... on the little church ...
... from a few images ago.
A look down the narrow street. If you are interested in cats, there are some cats in town ... and most of these cats :D are living in my house and yard ... but I left those cats out of this story ...
... so here is an unknown white cat after lunch in the garbage can...
... a cat behind bars ...
... a security cat ...
... guarding the house.
And there is a cat on the traffic sign near my home. It's a painting, not a real cat. Some unknown villain did this illegal thing. I have two black cats... so ... this makes me a suspect, I guess.
Some old stuff in the center.
Some more old stuff from the center.
And a little old water faucet detail from the center.
Enough of the old center - let's go to the beach ...
... let's watch some larger waters ...
... and the surfing kites flying.
This is the look through my trendy sunglasses.
Another construction site near the beach. Apartments buildings.Large and tall.Very little green, just a few palms, barely a parking place. Yap, a great project ... just what we needed. Oh, so original too. This town is getting filled with an impressive quantity of business geniuses.
Let's take a look at some flowers now. Lovely, ha? While photographing...
these flowers, I heard somebody yelling '' shoot me, shoot me! It was a friend passing by, he wanted to be on the photograph ... so I took this shot.
Some colorful old bicycles by the old house.
A little moth resting on an old facade.
Someone's wardrobe drying in the wind & sun.
A chimney, waiting for the night.
A parasol, waiting for a sunny day.
An old election poster of a one-time potential town's mayor.
'' I wish to become a town's mayor as soon as possible.'' sais the guy. I swear, is not a joke, this is an official motto, a catchphrase, is written there on the poster.
While photographing this ... election thing ... a friend in the car
stoped by, made this funny face ... and continued on his way.
And, here, at the town's entrance, like a finish at the car races ...
is the alpha male of the local politics, the current mayor, the number one.
The pigeons high on the lamp are watching ...
... the work of a flat, two-dimensional worker ...
And I'm looking at the rose ... that looks like something from some poem.
At the outskirts of town, my friend Mladen is trying to hypnotize the runaway sheep. It's the only way to catch her.
A lovely window and a balcony.
A little detail on a large old gate. I like how the light changes things
These brown wooden windows ... sometimes look shiny ... like metal
A chair and some bottles behind some restourant.
A big snail, slowly crawling down the street.
A lovely moment of morning light, somwhere in the old center.
Some old stuff in the center.
A very common streetlamp.
Some more old stuff in the center.
Two paralel houses that look like ready for the race.
An old house with some very old shop writings on the front.
Yap, once upon a time there was a storage and a grossery store.
An old slogan in Italian language, from the WWII time.
A graffiti from just after the war, you can see a red star and the word TITO
''Long live Tito'' graffiti under the newer facade.
yap ... a larger perspective with the window.
Some conteporary graffiti. Nationalism and some random names.
Jus like the old propaganda writings, this ones are apsolutly shallow, nothing witty or smart there.
A new house behind the old wall.
A little piece of blue sky through a house in construction.
Some old stuff from the center.
Some flowers. Lovely,ha?
Morning scene from the bay ... the only enlargeable picture in the post.
I'm entering the supermarket, some homeless dogs are sleeping below the little returnable packaging sign.
On my way out the dogs are awaken.
And the supermarket flags proudly flutter in the gentle summer wind ...
... like a winning army on a consumeristic battlefield.
Picturesque old houses in my neighborhood.
Standing like a little rocky isle.
An old rusted plow, there by the stone wall.
And on the same wall ...
... some local cindarella has left both of her shoes.
An atmospheric shot with some palms.
Abstract wall composition with some wires and a traphic sign.
An advertising sign for a new hotel that looks like is advertising the hotel in an old house with a broken window ...
... two broken windows ... actually ...
Yap, this is also a scene from the old center.
With this two paralel little streets the shots are always looking kind of panoramic.
Another old street.
And a detail on an old facade.
Some very common flowers.
Another old house.
Backyard of an abandoned house.
Other side of that abandoned house ...
and finally ... a short look at the abandoned bathroom.
Another old house ...
... with lovely windows ...
... and this lovely little angle
A minuscule snail on the wall ... and another old window.
A short look down that street.
A botanical detail on an old wall.
A beach scene. Ice cream advert with a cartoonish polar bear.
A look down an ordinary street.
A front store window of a closed for good bakery.
KRUH means bread in Croatian. And you can see a little sexy phone advertasing ...
in the old newspaper page behind the glass.
A blue sky and a traffic sign in the same shade of blue
A trafic sign with some doodles.
I really don't know why I did the photograph bellow.
Some white spheres on some balcony.
Some houses in the town's center.
And already is evening
Someone is burning the branches after cleaning the backyard.

And up in the distance ... the sky is on fire too...
THE END ... this little pedestrian post is over. As always, the photographs are my work.
