Panoramic view of Prague from the Vyšehrad castle wall.

A bit more to the south there are the salt pans of Las Salinas. The light was terrible but at least there weren't many visitors so we had the place almost to ourselves.

I preferred the views of Bled from Ojstrica to those from Osojnica.
|
|
We reached the top of Osojnica at the last moment as the sun was already very low.

Here you can see the nature of the whole range: grassy on the Slovenian side and steep and rocky on the Austrian side.

Then we camped at the main square and had a lesson in panning. Between us, we probably took hundreds of photos in less than an hour.
|
|
Yes, panning takes practice.
|
|
A slightly different panorama. :)
|
|
More panning.

A panoramic view.
|

Panning with the subject coming toward you is trickier.
|
|
It's fantastic to just lie on the lakeshore, but swimming is not recommended.
|
|
After we got tired of the panning exercise, it was time to head back to our cars. On the way I took one more warning sign shot.

Descending the steep, dwarf-pine-covered slopes towards Planina Govnjač was a bit tiresome, but the occasional view made up for it. More ruins in the distance at Planina Govnjač on the right.
|
|
The trail from Planina Javorniki was well-trodden.
|
|
The view from a gas station near Rijeka, Croatia. We never stop there, but that day it seemed like a good idea. A panoramic shot made of five photos.
|
|
Soon I reached the Lipanca hut with my destination, Mt. Mrežce, looming over it.
|
|
Looking back towards the valley.
|
|
Blue skies and puffy clouds.
|
|
From here on there was no defined trail and I had to trudge through the heavy snow.
|
|
Larches along the trail.
|
|
This was the good part of the trail. ;)

Luckily some blue sky remained in the east.

Then it got really cloudy and my hopes of shooting a great sunset were crushed, so I hurried back down.
