Hmm, let me introduce you to the MAIN Slovenian airport. Day 106

No, not kidding, this is the main one. Closed off at the moment - they're repairing the only runway =P Yes that one, just before the tree line.

Shot through double glass (one is part of the photo, the other one is reflected) due to laziness.

A few years ago we used to walk to the plane. Now the small planes get a bus service and bigger ones get connected to the main building. Such improvement! And of course every time a flight is late and a passenger gets nervous that maybe they'll miss their connection since they'll have only 20 min in between, the whole cabin, including the crew laughs (oh, well, the crew tries not to show it) =D

Actually it's pleasant and well run. Just tiny. Ah, well, like Slovenia itself.

At the end of the day this is a most welcome sight Day 105

soon =D

Spring cleaning in old Istanbul Day 104

I was wondering if the birds were being chased out of the house as well =D
Oh, yes, this is a regular sight in Istanbul.
Quite usual, really.

Snappy snap snap Day 103

Just because I kinda liked it. Took a sec after I parked in school's car park. I like days like this. Mission accomplished. It's no art, but than again...

Some things stay the same for centuries, with others you blink and they're gone

Detail of Yeni Valide Camii i.e. New Mosque


I also had a surprise spotting of a flock of storks. 1st time in my life. I only wish I had a zoom lens mounted on. They were way to shy so going close proved futile...

In love with Arnavutkoy Day 101

Waterfront yalıs (wooden mansions) in Arnavutkoy.


Aging, sometimes gracefully =D


This one is a reflection...


Loving the blue - yellow combos. Make me happy - like sun & sea ;-P

Teenage psyhedelia Day 100

Yap, guilty, I've been singing Anna Vissi (Greek singer, one of her songs is called Psyhedelia) in my head while doing this. For several reasons, I might add. I almost ate my word on this one. I promised it to the teenager however it took me days to finish it!! Colour scheme is teen's choice in the end and it looks even more psychedelic than my original red, blue and green idea ;-P Oh yes, I'll be happy not to open PS for at least a week now hahaha - there are 20 layers here actually. The stripes come from my alu blinds. What else? Oh, I'm so glad I'm finished with this one. I'll try to catch up with photos tomorrow.

I'm now obliged to print this big and stick it on his wall, I think :-D
