Another one...

Yes, I'm a sucker for sunsets, but I don't think you can blame me... ;-)

Sunset

Winter time is my favorite photo-op time for sunsets:

The lake series: Jarun X - cafe terrace view

Each year, after the summer holidays (usually spent on the Croatian coast), we all get nostalgic and look for sea-like spots to relive the holidays (or at least holiday views). This is the view from the Aquarius terrace towards the small lake:

This one is not from Zagreb, but the island of Pag (January):

Yesterday's sunset

The sunset was pretty spectacular with sun rays "cut" in two:

Fall colors || Bonus photo: Hvar sunset

Zagreb's Botanical garden is filled with weird plants that paint the garden in various colors and shades:

Bonus photo shows the sunset on the island of Hvar (recently voted as one of the top 10 most beautiful islands in the world according to Reuters world travelers):



I took this a few weeks ago, from the higher fortress (there are two)...

Photo family

I bought a tiny digital camera on Saturday, to accompany my large dSLR, and to stop taking photos with my cell phone. Here's yesterday sunset taken with both cameras.

First the baby Olympus X-930 showed off what it can do:



Then my old friend, Olympus E-500, took the stand:

What a beautiful day

Snow melting, the sun warming us up, and this sunset... what a beautiful day!

Sunset... Bonus trip photo: Karlskirche, Vienna

Yesterday's sunset was nothing but magnificent:



PS. Just in case you're getting bored with the identical view, sorry, I'll grab my camera next week. At the moment, I'm stuck at home (until Monday) with mild pneumonia caused by mild case of swine flu. :(

Bonus trip photo: Karlskirche, Vienna - most people on short tours around Vienna miss this church because it's slightly out of the center. IMHO, this is THE church you should see and visit in Vienna:

December theme day: Waiting

... for the nightfall...

This evening showed us all the glory of a wonderful sunset and a promise of relatively clear and starry night:



The photo was taken a few hours ago from my parents' apartment balcony overlooking the lake Jarun.

Was Monet here? Bonus trip photo: sun or clouds?

You have to wonder if the random work of nature on the lake Jarun got some help from Monet with this one:

Bonus trip photo: stormy clouds were looming over us this evening on Pag, but the sun was working hard to show us another glorious sunset. The sun didn't win in the end, at least not until the next morning...

Oktogon... bonus trip photo: Sunset clouds

Oktogon is a name for the passage between Zagreb's longest street, Ilica (packed with boutiques and shops), and the "Flower square" (the real name of the square I believe is Petar Preradovic Square, but I could be wrong):



Most people forget to look up, and they're missing quite a bit. The central dome:

70yo door & hallway... and trip bonus photo: waves

Although I'm getting closer to the newer parts of the city and further away from the center, every now and then I enter these buildings dating from (pre-)WW2 (they're in a larger circle around the center, as well as in the center). Quite often their hallways show a mixture of visible aging and high quality construction work. Most of these buildings have had their "facelift" done in the past decade, and one thing remains common to all of them: interesting wooden doors with random metal patterns covering their small glass parts. This one is in a building on the square next to the Central train station (Glavni kolodvor):

Bonus trip photo: waves crashing on the island of Pag in the sunset (right before a storm - we don't get such waves normally):
