August 2018

This post is part of my Calendar 2018. Every month I have a look at all the photos taken the same month last year and choose my favourite twenty. Sounds easier than it is.

Last August I spent in Slovenia just like this one. I was moving between Piran and Ljubljana with day trips to several other Slovenian towns, clicking left and right. No wonder that I had one hundred candidate photos in no time at all.

The final selection process was painful but here are twenty winners. A few you have seen already but the majority I haven’t posted yet. Welcome to Slovenia.

• 

  Spotted in Škofja Loka. Almost Manja.

• 

  Now to Ljubljana in nine images. More flags and the iconic Skyscraper.

• 

  Gelato at Cacao with Hare Krishna fly-by.

• 

  Across the Ljubljanica river.

• 

  A basketball court in Savsko naselje, near where mother grew up.

• 

  A woman, a man and some eyeballs.

• 

  KUD France Prešeren was the traditional venue of Trnfest, a daily August free get-together event. This year you have to pay. Ugly.

• 

  Brina and her group in PicniConcert at the Ljubljana Castle.

• 

  Sis in Ljubljana Botanical Gardens.

• 

  Also there. Are you on sale or not on sale?

• 

  Giant chessboard at the Celje Castle.

• 

  Žužemberk town.

• 

  Žužemberk cemetery.

• 

  And to finish, Piran in all its splendour.

• 

  Fountain in good light.

• 

  The blossom of passion fruit or maracuja.

• 

  Thuram is a bit tired.

• 

  To the sea.

• 

  Hardly touched. It really looked this way.

• 

  Back to safety.
