It Is Nice To Feel Loved...

I thought of these after the S&P downgrade of U.S.A.'s credit rating.

Postcards From Summer Travels

Still recovering from a long summer (that isn't quite over yet).
Here are a couple of "post card shots" from some of my travels this summer.

More Snow

It snowed some more over the New Year's holidays...but a number of the walls around town have elaborate paintings on them. The paintings and graffiti can really add color to what can be a drab and dreary time of year.

Helicopter

I'm sort of at a loss for a title. I've been wanting to take photos with HDR in mind of this abandoned helicopter for quite a while. Today was another unseasonably warm and sunny day, so I walked over late this afternoon and took a series of photos. To get there from our apartment, I walked through an area of the city which is still devastated from the war. I passed by a couple blocks of burnt out, bombed out buildings, some with portions people have made "livable" with cloths hanging out to dry. It is all a grim reminder of how destructive and long lasting the effects of war can be. So I'm left without a clever title...

Another gentle reminder, all the photos on my blog look best when clicked on for a larger view.

War is Cool...


Among the many scars that remain in Sarajevo even 10 years after the war, is an abandoned, graffiti covered helicopter. I'm told it was the entirety of the Bosniak Air Force at the time. Some of graffiti suggests that many of the scars that remain are more than just physical.
