"Moja Braaanka, ja da vidiš menhetena i ćaršije!"

ova tema mi je super poprave. vidi one kurve na slici - pokusavam odrediti koliko god ima i odakle je... vidi joj kosu... loool

lijepo je ovo doba godine kad su dani osjetno kraći a sunce nisko pa svjetlošću boje čini toplijima i jarčima. dani su puni ugodnog mira, tišina se spustila na more a u kamenjaru u brdima šipurci postaju sve ljepši. odugo berači maslina nisu imali ovako krasno vrijeme za posao... šetamo. događa se jutro na moru. dovoljno svježe i dovoljno toplo da bude potpuno ugodno. more spokojno šuti. sunce odnekud sja. na kraju jednog mola koji duboko ulazi u more - djevojka i pas. Pas drijema, ona radi jogu. lijepa slika. lijepi pokreti. sve nekako lijepo, mirno i bez žurbe. nema dosade.
