Discovering Serbia, in Black & White, in 15 photos - my entry today to the #monomad daily contest by @monochromes
Greetings, fans of Black and White photography!
Well, traveling around Serbia with few friends of mine with backpacks full of photo equipment was sometimes controversial but I gotta admit that I enjoyed this trip most of the times.
I brought home a lot of pictures of interesting and unique places, some of them I believe are best presented in monochrome. Like that scary portrait of the old locomotive below. Or the almost ancient truck (still used for transporting the logs). Or the tire "planted" in the river. Unfortunately, having garbage in many unexpected places is something typical for Eastern Europe. And not only there, as I've seen a lot of garbage along the roads in Southern Italy too. Anyway, that's not the topic of the todays post but all these nice details I found at this beautiful piece of Earth...
You probably know by now how much I love Black & White or sometimes referred as Monochromatic photography. I have always believed that while Color Photography shows the external part of our world, Black and White Photography shows the soul, the inner hidden side of everything. Please consider the first photo of this post as my entry today to the established #monomad daily contest by @monochromes, supported by @qurator, thank you everyone for your hard and continuous efforts to build and grow this great community!

What a beautiful black and white pictures
It's always appreciated, @ackhoo and @qurator :)
This is painfully beautiful. You really have an eye for great photos.
Thank you :)
i could be bias, but i feel that there is no controversial part there, especially in those rural places. people there are mostly really welcoming, language could be a problem.
this is a really big problem. it is sometimes painful to see all the trash in that beautiful nature.
We had an interesting rendezvous next to a small clay-bricks house where an old man popped out of the house with a shotgun. We stopped by the road to take few photos as the mountain landscapes were awesome. He asked us who we are and what are we doing. We were outside of his property. Thanks that one of my friends spoke a descent Serbian, who knows what could've happen otherwise... At the end the man calmed down and later he tried to sell us his quince brandy, LOL :D
As a side note, have you seen the return of the @travelcontest contests? You're invited and welcome! :)
well that was an interesting experience 😂
you should have probably buy it, in those places most people make their own "rakija" and it is usually pretty good :D
missed the trevelcontest, have to check it out and would be nice to start some traveling again :D
I was the unlucky driver, so I only tasted it but the other three friends had a small (50 ml) glass of rakija :) I don't recall if anyone of them bought a bottle, it was indeed a home-made :)
