High In The Mountains

By @oldtimer10/28/2018photography

For today's post, I browsed through my vacation photos and prepared some shots from my hike on mountain Krn when I was in Slovenia.

There's not much to say about these photos. They speak for themselves I guess.

When you're at 2000 meters high above the valley it's easy to take a lot of great photos. If the weather is good of course.

But you need to climb the mountain first, which can be quite challenging.

On top of that, I want to point out another aspect, which most of you probably don't know about.

The hardest part is to get off of the mountain, believe me. My legs were sore for three days.

You can see the Kobarid valley over the western ridge of Mt. Krn

Look to the East.

Sheep prefer fresh and colder air in the summer months.

Fewer insects like flys and ticks.

Flowers are much tougher than we think.

They know how to hide their vital parts and endure the harsh winter.

Nature at work.

Cows don't climb as high as sheep but they know well how to find a tasty meal.

My favorite.

I was standing at the edge and it was quite scary.

The gravel on the right side of the photo is more than 500 meters lower in the abyss, which you can't get the impression from the photo.

I hope you liked my compilation and you appreciate every drop of the sweat I shed, just like I do.

Enjoy your Sunday, my friends.
