Spring in Kozjansko, Olimje and Rogatec - SLOVENIA

Image
Again I travelled to the south-western region of my country Slovenia about a week from now. Exactly to Kozjansko. As I had plenty of time I also visited the small town of Rogatec, Olimje and a place called "Jelenov greben" which means "Deer reef" in English. All photos were taken during the daylight time.

Cities on the Slovenian coast during winter

Today I had some free time and what's the best thing to do? Take out your... hmm... camera and make some shots of course :) Here in Slovenia is now winter but here on our coast instead of snow we got sun.

Sunset & Piran

Image
I took a walk on the beach of Strunjan with my camera on purpose, to take some shots of the sunset. The second picture was done few minutes after the sunset and as you can see, there's a big difference in colors, feelings and believe me, also in temperature of the air. The church you can see on both pictures is a town - Piran, Slovenia.

The town of Piran

A bit about Piran: Piran (Italian: Pirano ) is a town in the Municipality of Piran in southwestern Slovenia on the Gulf of Piran on the Adriatic Sea. It is one of the three major towns of Slovenian Istria. The town has much medieval architecture, with narrow streets and compact houses. Piran is the administrative centre of the local area and one of Slovenia's major tourist attractions. Until the mid-twentieth century Italian was the dominant language, but was replaced by Slovene as populations moved. Tex t source: Wikipedia
