Woodford evening

Woodford Evening

Large Black view

Still experimentig with flashlights. Slowly I need to start taking a closer look to some other than blue, green, CTO gels :) It might get boring soon.
Anyway… This is not actually a whiskey shot. This is a nicely bottled tea shot. I kept this bottle for it’s aesthetics and since I’m running out of interesting objects to shoot at home, bottles come handy.
Also, mind this tip. If you ever want to impress other people with bottles full of fake whisky inside, remember to empty them afterwards… Difference between tea and whisky, even in the same packadge, is (among others) that tea moulds. Weird, ha?

Half of a chicken, my love

Half of a chicken, my love

Early in the morning I drove to a street market in Tbilisi, first of all to buy some stuff for the dinner (actually that was somebody else duty), secondly to see “regular” Georgian folks at their work or simply daily activities.

At the very entrance I ran across this elderly lady who was looking for the perfect chicken for Sunday lunch.

I did not understand a word between the seller and the old woman. I could only imagine she ensures herself about the freshness of each bird, and with a lisping high pitched voice she says: I’ll take half of THIS one, my love.

Like father, like son

Like father, like son

Boy helping his father sell some sea food in Quingping Market (the same one, where a lady was selling "peaceful eggs"), place known for it’s widely disapproved animal treatment. Besides that it was friendly, crowded and smelly. But hey… we ate a snake soup after visiting Quingping –
some fish smell or chicken guts all over the place won’t disgust us nor brake the traveller spirit!

Eggs make you calm

Eggs make you calm

Lady selling eggs (also the famous “1000 years old eggs”) in Quingping Market (Guangzhou), place known for it’s widely disapproved animal treatment. Besides that it was friendly, crowded and smelly. But hey… we ate a snake soup after visiting Quingping – some fish smell or chicken guts all over the place won’t disgust us nor brake the traveller spirit!

Let’s drink for peace!

We drink for peace

I met this guy while walking across Tsinamdzgvrishvili street in Tbilisi (Georgia). With a friend he was running a one-man flea market. The place was incredibly small. They were talking about something in Georgian when i step in and asked in English if they mind one photo. Surprisingly the owner (his picture will be here soon) answered in English, there is one condition: i will drink a shot of vodka with them.

I mean… what the hell… of course i agreed! This one I drink for you gentlemen I said.

They stood up. Raised tea cups filled with vodka, and said: let’s drink for peace – it’s been a hard time for us recently.
