Pink light after sunset.Jul 23, 2007

Walking on the globe.Jul 23, 2007
|
|
The world is round.Jul 23, 2007
|
|
We just sat down and enjoyed the quiet and the views.Jul 23, 2007
|
|
Cliffs.Jul 23, 2007
|
|
From the top you can see Stara Baška and some islands in the background.Jul 23, 2007
|
|
The road that leads to the village of Stara Baška winds its way high above the sea.Jul 23, 2007
|
|
The trail soon disappeared and we scrambled up across a rocky terrain.Jul 23, 2007
|
|
A dilapidated shack. Who knows if people actually lived there once?Jul 23, 2007
|
|
At the beginning of the trail to the top of the hill, there were some interesting yellow thorny plants.Jul 23, 2007
|
|
Late afternoon on the western Krk coast.Jul 23, 2007
|
|
What to go for a ride? Or should I say a row?Jul 23, 2007
|
|
A panoramic view.Jul 23, 2007
|
|
Punat is a surfer's paradise. That day, it was a photographer's paradise too.Jul 23, 2007

I've never seen the water so turquoise here before.Jul 23, 2007
|

When you cross the bridge to Island Krk, this is the first view on the right-hand side. Pretty, I'd say.Jul 23, 2007
|

More crazy clouds over the Bakar Bay.Jul 23, 2007
|
|
Looking back on the Bakar bay.Jul 23, 2007
|
|
The mouth of the bay around the corner.Jul 23, 2007
|
|
Ships are being repaired here, I think.Jul 23, 2007
|
|
Roads are being built all the time and the one from Rijeka to the south is quite an architectural feat. Not for the faint-hearted!Jul 23, 2007
|
|
The Bakar Bay makes your trip to the south quite a bit longer. The road goes all the way around it.Jul 23, 2007
|
|
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.Jul 23, 2007
|
|
The same view, but with the fisheye lens. I love this lens.Jul 23, 2007
|
|
After a large bowl of jota (potato-sauerkraut-beans-sausage casserole) and beer we looked at Lake Bohinj for the last time before heading back to the valley. It was a long, but fantastic day!Jul 22, 2007
|
|
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.Jul 22, 2007
|
|
The meadows at Dolniki, looking towards the Triglav Lakes Valley.Jul 22, 2007

|
|
The opposite slopes of the Krn range.Jul 22, 2007
|
|
And finally, the summit! There was Mt. Tolminski Kuk which we had optimistically considered climbing that day, but realistically, it was way out of our reach.Jul 22, 2007
|
|
Layers of rock are clearly visible.Jul 22, 2007
|
|
This was our highest destination for this hike - Mt. Mahavšček at 2008 meters above sea level.Jul 22, 2007
|
|
From the top of Mali Bogatin we could see the trail that we had taken early in the morning.Jul 22, 2007

|
No, we weren't going back to Komna, at least not straight away.Jul 22, 2007
|
|
The view from the Vratca pass: Komna hut in the distance and Mt. Bogatin on the right.Jul 22, 2007
|
|
The ruin is quite dilapidated.Jul 22, 2007
|
|
At the Vratca pass we had lunch. There is one checkpoint in ruins there too.Jul 22, 2007
|
|
A panoramic view of the valley below the Vratca pass.Jul 22, 2007

|
The sun was bearing down on us by the time we almost reached Vratca again.Jul 22, 2007
|
|
Three colors.Jul 22, 2007
|
|
Door frame and little else.Jul 22, 2007
|
|
Back at the barracks I decided to play with my fisheye lens and the HDR technique. Jul 22, 2007
|
|
More flowers, more grass. Incidentally, we weren't the only ones with the allergy. Quite a few people at the lake were sneezing too.Jul 22, 2007
|
|
We said good-bye to the Krn Lake and headed back the way we came, towards the Vratca pass.Jul 22, 2007
|
|
Deep blue skies all around.Jul 22, 2007
|
|
Lake Krn one more time.Jul 22, 2007
|
|
A butterfly landed on a backpack and was willing to pose for a while.Jul 22, 2007
|
|
It's fantastic to just lie on the lakeshore, but swimming is not recommended.Jul 22, 2007
|
|
Another reflection at Krn Lake.Jul 22, 2007
|
|
More flowers. Any way you look at the lake and the mountains, it's spectacular.Jul 22, 2007

A panoramic view.Jul 22, 2007

Reflections.Jul 22, 2007
|
|
Krn Lake (1391 meters above sea level) in all its glory. There is Mt. Krn (2244 meters above sea level) in the background.Jul 22, 2007
|
|
It only got worse as we were nearing the lake. Luckily we had lots of paper tissues with us.Jul 22, 2007
|
|
On this trail there was some kind of grass that was blooming and the air was filled with pollen. As we both have allergies, we started to sneeze and snivel like crazy.Jul 22, 2007
|
|
Windows.Jul 22, 2007
|
|
The biggest structure lacked the roof - and everything else, for that matter. There are only bare walls left. But the building is huge!Jul 22, 2007
|
|
After a few turns there is a hollow with remains of former Italian barracks and checkpoints built in the 1930s. Definitely an impressive sight!Jul 22, 2007
|
|
From the pass we started descending towards the Krn Lake.Jul 22, 2007
|
|
Layers in the mists.Jul 22, 2007
|
|
Komna hut and Bohinj beyond.Jul 22, 2007
|
|
At the Vratca pass (1803 meters above sea level) we had breakfast. Sitting in the grass we admired the views over the surrounding mountains.Jul 22, 2007
|
|
This part of the valley is called Gracija. I think I now know why.Jul 22, 2007
|
|
By now we were out of the shade and already started peeling layers of clothes off.Jul 22, 2007
|
|
Almost at the pass. The light was to kill for. As usual at such an early hour. :)Jul 22, 2007
|
|
If you look closely, you can see the Komna hut in the distance.Jul 22, 2007
|
|
We stopped too many times to take photos. There is the Vratca pass in the middle.Jul 22, 2007
|
|
Looking back towards Komna we saw the opposite slopes bathe in the morning sunlight.Jul 22, 2007
|
|
The trail to the Vratca pass led up the right side of the valley and was lined with flowers! What a sight!Jul 22, 2007
|
|
After a 15-minute walk there is another hut, Dom pod Bogatinom.Jul 22, 2007
|
|
One more look at the fog in the valley and at 5 a.m. we started walking.Jul 22, 2007
|
|
Looking towards the east - the Kamnik Alps with Kočna and Grintovec on the left and Kalški greben extending towards the right.Jul 22, 2007
|
|
Layers of orange. If you peel your eyes, you can see the TV tower on Mt. Krvavec.Jul 22, 2007
|
|
After a two-hour ascend from Lake Bohinj we arrived at the Komna hut at 1520 meters above sea level. We just caught the last sun rays washing over the surrounding mountains.Jul 22, 2007
|
|
The night was short. We got up at 4.30 to start the hike early, but before we set off, the view over Lake Bohinj enveloped in fog left us with our mouths open.Jul 22, 2007
