Morning civic scenes observed across Sofia, Bulgaria

The image shows a row of guards in a bus, presumably on their way to perform their duties. They are wearing traditional Bulgarian ceremonial uniforms consisting of white jackets with red trim, and distinctive hats with red and white cross designs. Some guards are carrying rifles. The location is likely the city of Sofia, Bulgaria, as the guards appear to be part of the national guard unit responsible for ceremonial duties in the capital. The scene is tightly cropped and focuses on the guards within the bus. The lighting is bright, suggesting it is daytime.

A man stands atop a concrete ledge using a hedge trimmer to trim the hedges. The concrete ledge is above the entrance to an underground area. The sign above the entrance reads in Cyrillic script, “СУ Св. Климент Охридски.” People walk down the stairs into the underground area. In the background, a building with a McDonald’s sign is visible. The sky is overcast.
