Wednesday walk - THE LONG WALK TO THE END OF TOWN
Let's start from the end ... because ... I don't know, this is kinda cool ... I like the movies with that type of structure.
I'm at the end of town. It's late afternoon and I'm looking at the church in the nearby village called Liznjan.
The pigeons are active around the tower, in the distance ...
... and I'm standing in front of the traffic sign with the name of that village. Here my hometown ends, and further is a different world, maybe even another dimension :D ... it's not of course, but let's pretend that it is, because that way the walk gains in weight and drama. And now, for the same reason, let me ask an appropriate question, in a very serious manner, like I can hardly imagine the right answer. How I ended up here, on the edge ? Well ... it all started ...
... early in the morning ...
... with the dew ...
... covering the plants around my house ...
... and some laundry ...
... hanging above the vegetation.
The sleepy shadow of the plum tree was resting on a clean white sheet. The sun was low in the sky ... and on the opposite horizon ...
... the moon ...
... was still visible.
When I exited my yard ...
... the truck was passing by, driving backwards ...
... on the way to deliver a boat to one of my fisherman neighbors.
On my way through the old center ... I met a dog resting in the middle of the quiet street ...
(Enlargeable)
... the fluffy white cat not far from the advert that says that a dog is missing, with his photograph and where to call if you see him ...
... and a person with bicycle ...
... on a heavy walk ...
... to the garbage cans.
A bit further along the road, the black car crossed the path and entered the scene for a brief moment.
There was an inviting plastic chair near this garbage place ... that made it look a bit like a little stage ... it still looks like someone will soon appear from some angle of the photograph, come to sit down there and say a few words, explaining what we just saw.
I passed by the graveyard soon ...
... with some tall cypress trees ... the tallest candles in town ...
... and I inverted a detail from one of those trees ... making it look like something from a hedge.
I came across a very different tree a bit further away ... and then ...
... I walked among the shadows ...
... for at least ...
... a couple of meters ... or so.

Then I saw some houses ...
(Enlargeable)
... and some more houses ...
... and also ...
... some distorted versions of those houses ...
... and more trees ...
... more branches ...
... more sky ...
... more colors ... more laundry ... more everything.
An old Mercedes - Benz car was parked in front of the supermarket, at the entrance of the coffee - bar ... looked a bit like a horse of some cowboy, waiting at the entrance of the saloon ... like in those old western movies.
(Enlargeable)
On the cheesy advert ... part of the supermarket's facade ... an old man was observing some cheese ... like prince Hamlet observed the iconic skull, once upon a time, far away from here, in some old Danish supermarket ... or it was a castle?
On the nearby wall ... the Kinder Bueno candy was hiding in the ivy ... it looked like the poor chocolate bar just escaped from the hands of some voracious kid.
Then I met the old stone wall ...
... in the company of a much younger house ...
... and this photogenic chair ...
... in some unfinished house ... and soon after that ...
(Enlargeable)
... I saw a man on the tree ...
... working on the tree ...
(Enlargeable)
... trying to cut the top of the tree ...
... and he did it ...
(Enlargeable)
... the tree is more like a pole now.
But many other trees ...
... all around town ...
... continue to spread their branches through the air.
Here you can see my neighbor, friend and Steemit - friend @denisdenis photographing something with his famous mobile phone around one of those trees.
(Enlargeable)
I said - Hi To him, and continued on my way ... passing by this tractor ...it was a good occasion to take a look at the mysterious tractor's internal organs ... and I took a photograph too ... and then ...
... after some more houses and the sun on its way down ...
... I arrived at the end of the town ... at the end of this post ... that is nicely connected with the beginning, in a never ending loop :D and I hope you won't get stuck in it ... but I can't guarantee ... as always in these posts on Steemit, the photographs are my work.

The chapel, architecture and trees are magnificent, but the photos of the moon are mesmerizing, Bravo !!!
Thanks for this nice walk)
Thanks ! Glad you like this photo - walk. :)
That is some risky tree work. I would be afraid of a branch breaking under my foot then swinging into another branch and getting impaled. Probably takes lots of experience and coordination.
I would be absolutely terrified, it looks like a perfect nightmare to me ... I'm generally afraid of the heights.
But imagine the photos you could take up there lol.
He,he ... yes, this prospective sounds inviting ... :D maybe I'll buy a drone one day, and let him do the scary work.
I thought he made it look like even I could do it! lol
Nice photography.
Thanks
Amazing set of photos!! You were out all day shooting!!
Yes, I spent the day wandering around ... but I went home few times ... this is actually a patchwork walk made of 3 walks during that day.
Great shots
Thanks
You welcome
I really enjoyed this wednesday walk with you - a little Shakespeare thrown in too! I loved the couple of short "stories" you've included (the trip to the garbage and cutting down the tree). Some of these photos are spectacular. LOVED the geometric shadows on concrete.
Thank you :) I'm very glad that you liked this little trip through my hometown.
:) :)
He,he ... a good day for a double smile.
