It’s been about 4 months since I’ve posted a balloon shot and is snowing outside (again) so back to the archives! Very little processing other than some levels adjustment.

A kinda boring bench monday.

Because I got home later from work today so there wasn’t time to do anything else. ;)

“WALKING THE STREETS IN THE RAIN” KILKENNY, IRELAND.

My poor heart feels like breaking
‘Cause I’ll never see you again
Still, nobody knows I am crying
‘Cause I’m walking the streets in the rain

My tears are mixed through the raindrops
And I feel like I can’t stand the pain
Still, nobody knows I am crying
‘Cause I’m walking the streets in the rain

I’m retracing your steps one by one
Oh, we walk down the street for so long
I can still see your face through my teardrops
While the rain whispers softly: “He’s gone”

The tears and the rain will keep falling
Till you bring back the sunshine again
Still, nobody knows I am crying
‘Cause I’m walking the streets in the rain.

Idyllic too

The Pannonian Plain is a large plain in Central Europe that remained when the Pliocene Pannonian Sea dried out. It is a geomorphological subsystem of the Alps-Himalaya system.

The river Danube divides the plain roughly in half.

The plain is divided among Austria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia and Ukraine.

The plain is roughly bounded by the Carpathian mountains, the Alps, the Dinaric Alps and the Balkan mountains.
Although rain is not plentiful, it usually falls when necessary and the plain is a major agricultural area; it is sometimes said that these fields of rich loamy loess soil could feed the whole of Europe. For its early settlers, the plain offered few sources of metals or stone. Thus when archaeologists come upon objects of obsidian or chert, copper or gold, they have almost unparalleled opportunities to interpret ancient pathways of trade.

The precursor to the present plain was a shallow sea that reached its greatest extent during the Pliocene, when three to four kilometres of sediments were deposited.

The plain was named after the Pannonians, a northern Illyrian tribe. Various different peoples inhabited the plain during its history. In the first century BC, the eastern parts of the plain belonged to the Dacian state, and in the first century AD its western parts were subsumed into the Roman Empire. The Roman province named Pannonia was established in the area, and the city of Sirmium, today Sremska Mitrovica, Serbia, became one of the four capital cities of the Roman Empire in the 3rd century.

Sometimes you happen on the best shots unexpectedly. I was photographing the colorful trees in an Atlanta park when I happened to glance down — and found my favorite capture of the day.
