One more photo of sushi, but this time it was arranged in one of two Belgrade Japanese restaurants. This decoration and the photo is from 2006 and as all other sushi dishes, was quite a yummy eaten.

One cloudy afternoon in Kairouan

It was one of rare days when it became cloudy and rained for few minutes, Kairouan, an old holy town which was quiet and dusty, all full of old buildings and mosques (and carpets,which besides the mosques are the second thing which is this town famous for). You could roam between the streets and catch some interesting moments or people like this

Imagine Future - Zamisli budućnost

the ušće towers as seen in future
............................................................

(2011+), belgrade - created in Adobe Photoshop.

Although the other one (without TV antenna) doesn`t yet exist, a beginning of a construction of this second tower is scheduled for 2009. The world financial crisis may postpone the construction but it is not in option yet.
A new shopping mall "Ušće" has opened today below on the right of the first tower ("existing" tower on the right).

The new slogan of the Ušće Shopping Centre - a new centre of the city marks the advertising campaign of the grand opening of this greatest mall in the Balkans.

Kule Poslovnog centra Ušće (2011.+), Beograd - slikano a potom kreirano u Adobe Photoshop-u.


S obzirom da jedna od zgrada ne postoji još uvek , početak izgradnje drugog nebodera se planira za početak 2010. godine. Zgrada bi trebalo da ima istu spratnost (kao na slici) ali sve je podložno promenama, pa može da se desi da bude i par metara viša od postojeće. Svetska finansijska kriza može da odloži izgradnju, ali za sada ide se prema planu.

Novi šoping centar "Ušće" se danas upravo otvorio (31. marta 2009. godine) ispod prvog (i buduceg drugog) nebodera, koji je ovde na slici na desnoj strani.

Our beloved sushi, O-sushi

すしわおいしいです。

One of my favorite dishes. Japanese cuisine turns out to be one great discovery for me and everyone else. Particularly I consider sushi . Maybe you find it disgusting to think how anyone can eat that raw fish.

I once taught I would never like it. But my curiosity sometimes benefits me, so I tried this special food and I loved it so much. Indeed, you have more other food to consider disgusting – dogs, cockroaches, spiders…? Probably it is, but it`s just a opinion of those who never try it. Well, I think I will stick to sushi.

Japanese food is healthy, and tasteful, not so greasy and most of its ingredients come from Japan except fish you can find in nearby seas not just in oceans.

On this photo you can savor the salmon sushi mix. Well guys, this called it in Tokyo Sushi Bar - Omega 3 Salmon Supreme mix. Well as it says you eat only salmon - in pieces (the biggest), small rolls and big rolls. Sushi is served with the extras of ginger, wasabi and soy sauce.

Wasabi is very hot Japanese spice, full of C vitamin and its color is green (you can see it below in the picture, next to ginger). And what looks like ham and is next to wasabi in the bottom of this photo is gingerof course, and has very nice taste, when you finish the meal and you don`t want to smell like fish but on lemon or something like that. Sweet.

I also don`t want to forget Nori seaweed or algae. They are green, you can buy it as pressed and dried and use them to make any kind of sushi rolls.

Very healthy stuff, indeed.

Anyway, that was a nice meal.
I like this photograph also because it makes me hungry when I look at it.

So if you feel hungry too, call your sushi take-away bar, and you won`t regret it. :-)

Ghostly Escape


ghostly escape, originally uploaded by yovanson.

They are ghosts or people just too quick to catch. However they are running scared in the middle of shadowy night.
...........
This photo was developed in Photoshop so as to look like this. I tried to change everything in order to get this effect. Of course, it was a marathon, the famous Belgrade marathon and they certainly did not compete in the middle of night but this was my wish to make something different than usual. It's a night nor cars neither people on sight so obviously something's wrong. They don't run just for fun.

And I really wanted to look like they are ghost runners and at the same time like people who are running so fast as if they are scared. So you will be questioned if they are running scared or just scared ghosts running so wild!!

Finally, the story concludes with a fact that even ghosts are escaping from the spot.
