South-eastern edge of the Ljubljana Marshes, May 6

 
56958. The sky above Kamnik pod Krimom, view from the road toward Borovnica

Ankaran, May 9

 
56961. A late-afternoon view toward the west, with a sailboat on the horizon

 
56962. The Lazulite Ace, a car carrier, is dual-fuel—powered by liquefied natural gas, with almost no harmful emissions, and by conventional diesel fuel if the boat cannot refuel with natural gas somewhere along the route. It can carry 7,000 cars.

South-eastern edge of the Ljubljana Marshes, May 10

 
56963. View across the Ljubljana Marshes toward the Kamnik-Savinja Alps with the Notranje Gorice church at the side

Lake Cerknica

 
56964. View from the north-eastern side of the lake plain toward the Javorniki ridge

 
56965. Flax flowers, Linum usitatissimum

56969. View from a side road toward the sun, just before sunset

SE edge of the Ljubljana Marshes, May 13

 
56970. Lunch. The compote is covered so it doesn’t cool down too quickly.

Suhadolca, May 17

 
56974. View from the Cvinger lookout point across the lake plain toward the east

 
56975. A zoomed-in view of the centre of the previous photo, showing part of the lake and Stražišče Hill, 814 m

 
56976. View from the trail toward the cave Suhadolca across the lake toward Cerknica

 
56977. View down toward the flooded cave entrance from the cliff on the western side

 
56988. A photo with a canoe, just before landing

 
56978. A view of the reeds a little further in the direction of the lake, also from above

 
56980. Another view of the entrance from a rocky ledge above the water, from the west side. The entrance wasn’t completely flooded, though.

 
56981. The usual access to the cave is from the east side, but the cliff there is a bit too steep for a safe shot from above.

 
56983. View from the mouth of the entrance bay across the lake toward Mt. Slivnica ...

 
56985. ... and another very long telephoto shot — a bit too much for the capabilities of the phone’s longer of the two telephoto lenses; a view across the lake toward Mt. Triglav, 2864 m.

 
56986. A flowering willow

 
56990. A less common but equally beautiful fern, the male fern, Dryopteris filix-mas, unfurls its fronds

 
56991. A view of the spring fissure from one of the overhanging rocks; the light-coloured surface is somewhat reminiscent of the island of Borneo.

 
56992. Side view, with very different reflections

 
56993. Another slightly obscured view of the spring, with cypress-like deciduous trees in the background — perhaps poplars?

Goričice

 
56995. A snowball bush, Viburnum opulus ‘Roseum’, in Tomaž’s garden

The Bay of Springs on Lake Cerknica

 
56996. The Čolniči spring at the low water level

 
56998. A telephoto view of Laze from the trail toward Čolniči
