[OM] Photos from the Balkans

Dear all,

Bernd Moeller's comment about finding his PhD 'more a pain than real joy' rang very true with me. Still a year or so to go for me but I can hardly wait to finish! A couple of weekends ago, though, I managed to get away from all thoughts of astronomy and theses for a very refreshing and enjoyable weekend break in Croatia and Slovenia, which I thought I would share the photos from:

Naturally the photos are taken with OM gear, an OM-1n with Zuikos 50/1.8 and 135/3.5, and Tokina 28/2.8. Film was Fuji Sensia. Unfortunately a number of them were somewhat underexposed, causing me to wonder if my meter is going, but luckily I didn't lose everything.

I'd long wanted to go to the former Yugoslavia and it certainly didn't disappoint - Ljubljana is truly one of the most beautiful cities I've been to. My photos don't come close to doing it justice and I am already planning return visits to better capture what's there. It was thickly laden with snow when I was there and I'd love to see it and photograph it in the summer time.

Any comments and critique most welcome. I will probably trim the number of photos on the web page eventually, but I need the passage of time to divorce my memories from the creative results, and decide more objectively what should stay and what should go.

Cheers,
Roger
