American number plates in Riga?

IKEA

This is IKEA supermarket selling furniture and stuff... from the catalog... I guess.

Technology

Automatic check-outs in supermarket is another step towards technological unemployment. In future everything will be done by robots. Machines will replace human workforce. Unemployed will have no money, but shelves will be full of products.

Not the sharpest image, because they move too fast... or I am too slow.

Looking at windows through windows

So now we're here and now is fine
So far away from there and there is time, time, time
To plant new seeds and watch them grow
So there'll be flowers in the window when we go.

Living in the past - it translates: spring/summer 2009

Adverts in Riga 1

I am not sure why some graffiti is legal and some not, oh I remember - you have to pay for it to make it legal.

Jugla 3

Few hundred metres from Juglas lake in Riga, you will find an area of abandoned structures like this.

Sigulda

This is another "slightly out of Riga" photo I have to post because of its beauty.

Reflection

The building and a bit of myself can be seen in glasses.
