Sights of Starše

This small place has been my home village for over 16 years. When I saw these clouds I took my bike, went on a short trip around Starše and these are the photos I got.

Abstract macro

After taking photos of bees I tried to get some abstract photos of the flower they were on.

Dreamlike red roses

To take this photo I used a tripod and long exposure time but wind and rain kept bothering me and I was able to get only this two shots.

Motocross in Orehova vas - the race

Day after qualifiers... In each category there were two races. We decided to skip the first EMX2 race and just as we arrived there the reporter said the winner of the qualifiers, Klemen Gerčar, had bad luck and had fallen at the start and thus finished 13. after the first race.

Later MX3 started in which our best motocross driver Sašo Kragelj finished in 3rd place but improved in the second race where he finished first. This put him in 2nd place altogether.



Panoramic picture made out of 3 photos.
