Keukenhof/Holland

2008-06-15T10:45:00.015+01:00

As we where visiting our friends in Holland we also made a trip to Holland's most famous flower garden Keukenhof.

Climb me if you can

2008-06-13T17:23:00.002+01:00

This is Triglav our highest mountain, still need to climb it but for now this picture will have to do.

Schönbrunn / Vienna Zoo

2008-06-06T19:10:00.008+01:00

I know, I know we haven't posted for some time now but i really try and try (well not true tbh), but as we have quite some photos to publish, we will try to he more active.
Here are some photos take in Vienna Zoo in March this year I hope you will like it.

Greetings from Holland

2008-04-28T08:24:00.003+01:00

So we made it to Holland, was a quite long drive but would you imagine the drive all the way from Slovenija using a vehicle on this picture :)

Ljubljana Zoo

2008-04-12T09:24:00.011+01:00

So i finally made the effort to arrange the pictures that we took 2 months ago in Ljubljana Zoo, i hope you will like it.

Photographers dilema

2008-04-05T12:01:00.003+01:00

To all that would wonder on the title here is the answer. This was taken in Dovzanova's gorge in RAW format and then converted to HDR.

Flow

2008-04-01T13:14:00.003+01:00

The afternoon walk, a canyon, water, a camera.... and this came out. I hope you like it.

Session 1

2008-03-19T19:59:00.006+01:00

OK, this is our first published session, with Urska as a model. We took a lot of pictures, but this 2 after quite some work in PS made the finals. All comments and critiques are more then welcome.

Sky so blue ...

2008-03-08T00:54:00.002+01:00

Picture is form our nice Sunday walk in the nature. The weather was just perfect and warm and polarisation filer was really needed. The little playing in PS is from Miki.

A moment frozen in time

2008-03-06T23:03:00.003+01:00

This picture was taken last year, when there was a sign of winter around us.

Good night in red

2008-02-24T08:47:00.003+01:00

Visiting hills around the geometrical centre of Slovenija.

Around the lake Predvor

2008-02-17T10:16:00.002+01:00

Taking a nice walk around the lake at Predvor, winds where blowing and the temperature was around 0°, but it looks like it didn't bother the ducks.

Spring is here...again

2008-02-09T17:34:00.001+01:00

This year spring really came early.

I'm still waiting for you

2008-01-26T10:32:00.001+01:00

A picture taken last year in may, we wanted to go up there, but the snow and the weather stopped us, so we turned arround on the pass of the mountain.

First job

2007-11-10T18:25:00.000+01:00

Ok i know the title doesn't fit to this picture but i must explain. This is actually the first request (you can call it a job) that me and Urska got, thus "First job". Also this was taken with our new polarization filter (Marumi Digital DHG Circular PL(D) )

An autumn picture from out trip to Vrsic.

Lost in toughts

2007-11-03T20:12:00.000+01:00

Another picture from same time as the last one, Sara is watching something very seriously and I just love her expression. This picture is also tampered with in PS :).

Child's eyes

2007-11-01T19:28:00.001+01:00

As we were visiting Miloses parents I took a few shots of his niece Anja and I played a little in PS with this one.

Orchid

2007-10-29T18:45:00.000+01:00

An orchid taken at my mother house, its a HDR image, the quality could be better but (maybe not to put a white orchid against a white wall :) ) i'm still learning.

i'm watching you

2007-10-28T09:10:00.001+01:00

Ulla was playing with the camera again, Miki was being very optimistic and tried some polishing in PhotoShop, and this is the result. I hope you like it.

It's so cold ...

2007-10-26T16:51:00.000+01:00

We had a 10 min walk with Sara and i manage to take just a few pictures.

Testing out the "new" stuff

2007-10-17T20:58:00.000+01:00

So finally we took the "big" leap and jumped from compact to DSLR mode, i must say the difference is so huge that i can not imagine having compact camera at any time again.
Here are a few tryouts taken today at a nearby hill.

portrait with some modification in PS, image was also cropped and bordered

macro of a flower no modifications made only crop and border

this is the first try of an HDR image, i tried it in our kitchen with a sea motive, i know this is by far the worst HDR but hey i got a lot to learn :)

Going to sleep

2007-09-28T11:53:00.001+01:00

And so it has come to the last day of our vacation, the sun was saying goodbye and we where feeling a little sad that it will be another year before we will see all this again.
But it is worth the wait.

Incomings ...

2007-09-20T10:02:00.000+01:00

As we finally went on our vacation on Korcula and with all the nice and hot weather, there has to be some rainy days just for the change of it.
This is a glimpse of the thunder storm that passed us yesterday with 2 hours of rain.
Today as we are posting this the sun is out again and we are ready to hit the beach and the sea again.

2007-04-30T18:13:00.000+01:00

Haven't posted for some time now (for witch we deeply apologize) but here is the first sign of spring in our beautiful mountains.

Attention!

2007-02-02T18:35:00.000+01:00

A close up photo of our cat, I guess we just love her too much, so she has to be a part of our blog.

Waiting for spring

2007-01-28T12:00:00.000+01:00

We haven't posted now for some time, mainly because we did not have anything worthy to post, so we went out yesterday and make some photos.

Snow flakes

2006-12-07T21:29:00.000+01:00

Yet another macro, I guess we really like making them, well this one was taken on a near by hill called Jost.

Up, up and away

2006-12-06T20:11:00.000+01:00

Something from a different perspective. I hope u like it.

I'm still here ...

2006-11-21T18:04:00.000+01:00

Taken in a vineyard about a month ago, the sun was setting and there was just the right light and moment for this picture, i hope you will like it.

White rose

2006-11-20T19:02:00.000+01:00

She is far from prefect but still so gentile and beautifull ... the last rose this year from our garden.

Objects in the wind

2006-11-13T22:53:00.000+01:00

2006-11-13T22:39:00.000+01:00

Force of nature

2006-11-13T22:31:00.000+01:00

No comment really needed here. Photo was taken on our vacation on Korcula.

Lake Bohinj

2006-11-13T22:21:00.000+01:00

On the hot summer day we decided to take a trip to one of our lakes, the water was clear and warn and just right to swim.

Into the sun set

2006-11-13T22:02:00.000+01:00

Sitting on the beach in warm August, and this sailing boat just happened to be there.
