These images are stirring up memories of my nearly year long stay in your city.

Great... :-) Time then to come and visit again (I'll get the wine) !!!

The picnic photo and the man reading newspapers are amazing!!!
I am thoroughly enjoying your thread Mr Pochoy :)

Good grief... It's Jacques, Mr Minić (I guess we have the same first name ?) :-)

that sure sounds like a meetup I won't miss. Gary and Mary Lou on the tour de vin of Europe ....

coming to Rhine and Moselle later .... photos in Paris ..... me and my Sinar over the shoulder. Black cloth ...

Jaques joining in .... wonderful landscapes and food ....

You are out there. You and your camera. You can shoot or not shoot as you please. Discover the world, Your world. Show it to us. Or we might never see it.

The jogger picture creates a wonderful sense of proportion. Big open space. Public space.

The story of the benevolent American together with that picture in classical style ... love it.

Thank god I am not afraid of heights ....newspaperman sucks me in.... need a bathing suit ....haha

Yes, our first name is the same Mr Pochoy :)
It's spelled and pronounced quite differently though.
Many variations of the same name all across the world: Jakub, Jacob, Giacomo, James...

So why the formal attitude ? After all this NG Revival is about a bunch of guy loving taking pictures and worshipping the great bear from the North... :-) So we can call ourselves by our first name, as members of the same "club" ?

its just a way of speaking - I do it often.
Mr Minić probably meant it like that as well.

Oooops ! You know that in France we can't use anymore the word "Mademoiselle" (Miss), because it was felt as derogative, and now have to use "Madame" (Mrs) even for very young ladies...!!!!
