performers & dj's


a second part of Street Musician Day;
we met several personages, you might have seen in Laimikis before ;)

egzistuoja toks daiktas, kurį vadiname “laimikio efektas”:
kartą priėję ir susipažinę su žmogum gatvėje, imate jį matyti
mieste (dažniausiai jau nuo kitos dienos po pažinties).

nieko nuostabaus, kad per gatvių muziką sutikome
kelis laimikius, kuriuos turbūt atsimenate ir jūs ;)

shots from Street Musician Day

gatvės muzikos diena virto fotografų švente -
tiek žmonių su kamerom retai kur pamatysi, taip kad
laukiam jūsų linkų į garsų nuotraukas-įspūdžius! ;}

šį kartą metam nuotraukas tyliai -
o vakar pagauti laimikiai dar laukia savo eilės :)
