This time I assorted more 'feel good' stuff starting from letter 'D' for the next round of the Alphabet hunt challenge by @barbara-orenya.
D — Dinosaur
Here's a running joke from the publishing industry. Someone calls in to a magazine editorial office to enquire:
— Do you have a photograph of a dinosaur? (probably, with intention to illustrate an article).
— No, we don’t have such a photograph,— was the answer.
— How it could be so, why dont you have a photo of a dinosaur!! Evrywhere I am calling, and nobody could provide me such a simple service!! — the client was indignant.
So... I have a photo of a dinosaur!!!! Luckily, I captured this graffiti last summer at the streets of St.Petersburg. Sadly, those things are ephemera — dont last for long.
D — Donuts
This was shot at the local Auchan mall which I am pretty much in love with. This picture also illustrate the word 'Hope' to me, so I may use it later if I will be out of stock.. will see.
D — Darbuka Drum
This one also illustrates the word 'daughter'. Double shot! I am not totally sure, but maybe this drum's name is 'Darbuka' -- in such a case, I have three names covered here
:)
D — Dolls
Captured this at the display of a souvenir store in the center of St.Petersburg - basically for some nice cat-art. Puss-in-the-boots, The Dracula Cat, etc.
D — Drowning
Real drowning isnt a positive thing, but you can see, it is not for real, my friend was just fooling around in this huge weed jungle. I enjoyed this picture so much that I wanted to share it anyway -- letter D looked appropriate!
D — Dancers
Ok, those ladies present some dance being dressed in a cool Russian traditional dress (Gzhel style), I thought you would like to check it up.
All the images taken by me, as always.
Afterwords, or working on Vocabulary
I also was considering some other words this round that came to my mind, but finally they lost to more successful rivals:
| daydreaming | dedicated | debonair | dew |
| disarming | dazzling | doodles | dazed |
| delicious | dessert | dancer |
Those are all good things, I wanted to illustrate ... but nobody can fit an unfittable, right? I found Dessert and Delicious to be too banal, and the Doodles I lended to my babygirl (not sure if she will use it or not, though). So, most of my entries were a last-minute decisions, impulsed by the actual photos that I preferred to share. Only dancers survived :)
Ну и, конечно же (как говорил мой старый наставник-редактор): "Нельзя впихнуть невпихуемое!"
Hope you enjoyed travelling with me. Come back next week, and join the fun!
