The Symphony of Umbrellas...

Tuesday morning... On my walk to Baluty...  I didn't intend to take pictures this time because it was grey and raining... Guess what?




























































































































A symphony of umbrellas...

Colourful Lodz... (2)

Monday morning... On my walk to Baluty...

















































































































A symphony of colour...

Colourful Lodz (1)

Monday morning. Two minutes at the Zielona / Piotrkowska crossing.

At the start of my walk to Baluty.

















I will show you the whole 'picture'... It's like a small movie... in photography.
I hope you can share my excitement for this event of light, colour and movement...

waiting for the traffic lights

Green! They start walking...














crossing Zielona...


and disappearing around the corner...

last chance...

and this lady in the blue/green coat again, crossing Piotrkowska now...

(What's the name of this colour exactly? A special blue, something some of the the old Italian painters liked to use...)

Is it's 'emerald' I think so, yes.

Grey is beautiful...

Sunday I met Krzysztof on Piotrkowska street. We starts talking about Lodz... the history but soon about the light, the colours, the grey, the beauty...

He told me that a colleague photographer used to say: "Lodz is the only city in the world where grey isn't grey"...

But my problem is that I don't see any grey at all. I see colour only...

Follow me on my twenty minutes walk from my place at Zielona to Ula's place in Baluty.

This is all about my love for the city of Lodz.
