I had to post this one here, taken in Triglav National Park, Slovenia. It ended up as an EPA runner-up to Marcs image of Mt Rainier but was more or less a repost. I had it posted months before and although it was well received, there were some doubts that it was a single straight exposure. That kind of bugged me and I showed the whole scene to give a better impression of what the viewers is looking at here. that image was only attached to it but I have no doubt it was THIS version which won the 2nd place EPA...
sure one of our more successful images.
the web-post here it freshly done and with a slightly panoramic crop.

Fall in that area definitely is a great experience and if my schedule allows it, I will go there again this fall to cover the places I missed last year because of the insane weather (Tolmin, Soca, ...).

This definitely is one of your best. Was this one taken at Lake Bohinj? If so, it's amazing how much flow there is in that peaceful lake.

An image that demands close inspection and exploration. This must be mesmerizing as a print.

Great photo, Verena. Initially I thought it might have been Yellowstone but will use it as inspiration for my upcoming trip anyway. :smile:

Fantastic Verena. A stunning, phenomenal image. Can see why this has been an award winner and so successful.
