Poetry


I'm probably the least romantic person on earth, believing only in reality, so this are not supposed to be romantic pictures (but i get this kind of reaction to this and the following pics all the time :))



in this one...just loving the shades of orange...




The keyword for this collection was actually "poetry"
this is my view...

Bled

In this last days of summer, if I even may call this days summer days (the temperatures were like 10° C and less), I spend really great days, exploring Slovenia. First day we went to Škocjan caves, but they didn't let us take pictures in the cave, so...
The next day we went to Bled. This lake with an island in the middle which you can visit with a small wooden boat. Yeah, it sounds romantinc ha? The true picture: to survive you must constantlly avoid feathered killing machines - the swans and ducks!!!
Attention: they just look sweet!!!
But nevertheless, we had a great great time! Thanks to all of you :)





HDR Attempt




I say: To learn, you have to try or see everything you can about the topic you're studying, to get the clear image in the end. Even if you don't like certain steps or lessons! This will give you the width and knowledge you need to succeed. In photography I don't really like digitaly adjusted images that don't really express what you saw through your lens at the time. If you learn how to draw with light, no computer programms are needed. But of course, this is just my understanding of photography.
I didn't quite liked the idea of making a series of identically-positioned but with different exposure settings imeages, but why not :) 
(not my best work - but great learning proces and the best models:))




Strunjan saltpans





Old meeting with new













There are times when I just need to get away from all the chaos. At that point I usually go to places that really inspire me and where I can just free my mind and soul. Saltpans are THE place, esspecially Strunjan saltpans. Take a look and see what I mean... 




Black peak :)

My favorite place in Koroška is definitely Pohorje (slovenjegraško in ribniško), and the highest peak of Pohorje - Črni vrh (altitude of 1543m). Here I have my special place where I go to relax - no matter if it's summer or winter the view is amazing! A view of Uršlja gora, Kamniške in Savinske Alpe (Alps), all the way to Austria when it's sunny, with fresh water just few steps away, wild animals and most importantly fresh air :)
