Scenic Sunday - Plitvice Lakes, Croatia



Here's my first entry to the Scenic Sunday blog. I took this photo while travelling around Croatia. One of the places I desperately wanted to see while in Croatia was the beautiful (and scenic!) Plitvice Lakes. I had seen so many amazing photographs of it and was dying to go there! Not to mention I love waterfalls and this place had a lot of them.

So when planning our trip we decided to fly into Zagreb, hire a car and stop off at Plitvice Lakes before driving down to the Dalmatian Coast. The day we were there it was a little gloomy, overcast and wet but even with all that grey, mist and rain it still managed to look beautiful. In fact all that mist made it seem a little mystical too.

If you ever get a chance to visit Croatia, I highly recommend visiting Plitvice Lakes - the water is crystal clear and an amazing bluey/green colour (actually the water in Croatia is the clearest I think I have ever seen!).

Below are just a couple more photos I took while at Plitvice Lakes, and a few more can be found in my shop.

Everyone of these images are wonderful. But I have to say that first one is heart capturing!

I also browsed your blog a bit and you have a wonderful style and gift with your photography!

The first photo actually reminds me of Hawaii which has endless wonderful pools of clear water like this. The last photo reminds me of Olympic National Park on the coast where they have a three mile boardwalk trail that extends to the ocean.

Croatia looks like a very beautiful place to visit. Great Photographs.

Your photographs are amazing, you are very talented. I especially love the waterfalls. As an artist, I am always drawn to painting waterfalls:):)

In reply to your comment on last weeks Shadow Shot Sunday post about the Mr Linky not being there to add your link, yes I had closed it & had already exported all the participant links because it had long ended. I think you popped in on Friday. I popped on over to see if you had done a shadow shot sunday post & was going to add your link to this weeks SSS but see it's a Scenic Sunday meme you've participated in. So you may have got your memes muddled up when you popped over to add your link to SSS...hehe.

Beautiful Scenic Sunday shots btw! Hope you're having a great weekend...what's left of it :)
