Back in 2009, I photographed and stitched really big (in terms of pixels and file size) panorama of Kastela, Split, Kastela bay and Central Dalmatia islands in Croatia. The panorama was meant to be an ‘usual’ showcase photo for portfolio and prints. But it turned out to be Read More

The village of Dol sits inland, in the tail end of the fertile valley, just 2 km away from the sea and village of Postira, on Brac island. Stone houses of Dol are mostly crowded together up the eastern slope of the porous and steep hill, built one on top of the other in order to preserve fertile ground on the valley floor – in past times valuable as a pure gold.

As I wrote in my previous posts about Blizzard and and Snow day, in the area of Split (my hometown in Croatia) the snow is a really rare phenomenon. It’s a one-time opportunity to enjoy the unusual snow landscape of that mediterranean, mild-climate place. And after I’ve seen and photographed my town in it’s winter edition, I wanted to check how the inland near Split looked like covered in white. So I decided to visit Sinjsko polje – a big, flat and fertile area only 20 minutes of drive away from my town. Read More

Yes, it’s again about the snow. What can I do when past few days nothing else happened but snow. Second day brought us extra 10 cm of snow and more winter joys and troubles.Why such a big hype over it? Well, let’s take a look into history and numbers… Read More

Yep, the post is called Snow day because our mayor pronounced February 3rd 2012 a snow day. If you didn’t know, and it was certainly the news to us, in my town snow day happens to be a day when it snows and nobody is working. Especially not municipal services. The hell with the work, it’s snowing!! Mayor said it’s ok, yaay! But, cynicism to the side, everything was fun on the first day of snow. Yet, what was supposed to be unusual weekend with lots of winter joy, turned out to be a complete and utter mess…. Read More

It was finally there. For weeks metheorologists predicted extremely cold, Syberian weather with a lots of snow and freezing cold wind. Majority of Europe was already struck with extremely low temperatures and buried under tons of snow. And that was exactly what we in Split were waiting for: snow. It finally started Read More

Omis is beautiful little town in the heart of Dalmatia, right on the spot where river Cetina flows into the Adriatic sea. Above Omis rise three mountains: Poljicka mountain, Mosor and Omiska Dinara. Omis landscape is a stunning combination of river canyon, sandy beaches and dizzy mountain cliffs. The landscape is just breathtaking there. Read More

When you travel to some foreign country or a far away place in your country you’ve never been before, do you try to find places where you can taste local cuisine? Do you enjoy new tastes, smells or new ways of food preparation? I certainly do, and everywhere I go I try to eat mostly local food. It’s great way to get to know the place, people’s habits and their way of life, because cuisine is usually reflection of climate conditions, surroundings and locals’ way of life. Read More

A university campus on a Sunday afternoon looks quite deserted. No students, no rush, no deadlines, no exams… Any kind of activity is wiped away.  It’s just like a big, empty, architectural showcase with no specific purpose. Looked like a perfect spot for some architectural photography activities without being distracted :)) Read More

Following couple of days will be very interesting, I’m sure of it. Tomorrow, I’m going to the annual  photography meeting  which takes place in Baranja, beautiful, plain and verdant countryside on the eastern part of Croatia, by the Danube river. All days shooting, beautiful nature, a bit of education and lots of good time – all that with the best Croatian photographers. Also, I’m looking forward to finally see Baranja, part of Croatia I’ve only read about so far. Croatia has many types of landscapes, but I have never seen it’s plains… Read More
