Velika planina and crocuses

The spring has come, but there is still snow high in the mountains. The white Kamnik Alps provided a beautiful backdrop when hiking on the purple carpet of crocuses on Velika planina.

A glorious afternoon hiking on Velika planina

Is it obvious why I love returning to this place so much? :)

It is obvious :P
Oh, and thanks for the invitation. I hate purple colour anyway :) Nice photos, as always.

Lepe slike. Mi smo bili gor isti dan, samo da sem bil brez polarizacijskega filtra in sem bentil pri vsaki sliki (očala filter imajo, tako da sem vedel za razliko ...).

Ja ta "velika" je res famozna,če naletiš na takole vreme, zna pa biti hudo meglena in ne rabiš ne filtra ne fotoaparata...a

No fotke so super jih je veselje pogledat in zaradi takih fotk se človek rad vrača tja, pa četudi je megla.. 8:))
