Changing Seasons 08

Ever since the beginning of the year I have been posting photos of my favourite park in Zagreb for Cardinal Guzman’s challenge (except for July when I took my break). Today’s post will reveal that Maksimir is not only a venue for strolls and family time, but also for some unexpected photo shoots.

        I am Paula. Feeling quite lazy sometimes. I am glad the heat has abated a little. Makes the time off more pleasant 🙂

    How lush and luxuriant. And what a place for a wedding photo shoot, if you must do the wedding thing. My favourite are those ducks amongst the green water patterns and Lake #5. I’m really enjoying this seasonal series: even feel part of seasonal change after snow in Liston. Mostly our changes aren’t as dramatic as yours – eucalypts don’t go autumnal, although changing bark does mark time of year.

    I hope you’re not feeling too much like my granddaughter who wailed “Want to go back to the holiday” as they headed home from a week in Slovakia.

      After holiday I have thrice the regular workload and the heat is limiting otherwise enjoyable free time activities. P.S. Slovakia is not the place that hubby and I would like to revisit.

    The duck family wins it for a dreamy photo! At first glance I thought the gazebo was a weather vane where the couple take turns popping in and out 🙂
    I was going to ask if you’re back in the groove and catching up with work, Paula, but I have the impression you can never entirely catch up 😦

      I won’t and it does not matter any more. I have much more important stuff right now. It happened to most of WP users to miss other posts, and I never complained.
