Let’s start with two photos from the Okarina Festival in Bled.
We went to two concerts. These are from the night with Vieux Farka Touré from Mali.
This is what I call well-lit. The National and University Library in Ljubljana.
Piran is constantly well-lit at dusk with competing colours.
Our garden in Ljubljana happy in the rain after a drought. The autumn was coming.
The colours of Ljubljana centre: the Ljubljanica river and the pink church.
I’ve posted this Ljubljana building already but it’s a favourite. Vurnik House, Miklošičeva St.
Two Ljubljana window beauties.
I love this burst of colour.
Lokev Primary School.
A friend in the assortment of oranges.
I often wonder if Piran households get laundry hanging colour code instructions.
Mom’s gifted cousin gifted us (and painted) this painting
The sea in Piran is not always such colour. I think it was after a cooling-down since almost nobody was swimming.
And this was after a downpour. Mom and Piran wear matching outfits.
Socerb Castle, father and cheerful vehicles.
August: Muha Restaurant in Lokev, Slovenia.
Colourful Lokev church that the priest (on the left) opened for us to view.
August: The colours of the past: Fabiani Museum Shop in Lokev with curator Miro.
The return to the Italian colour palette: Porto Ercole. Soon.

Lens-Artists PC: Colours of August 2017

Written by Manja Mexi Mexcessive

Another August is going with the wind and with it my last chance to post last year’s August photos for my 2017 Calendar. 

My blog is full of colours at any given time. That’s why I was happy when I saw the theme of this week’s Lens-Artists Photo Challenge and did my best to find the time and get together twenty photos that show the colours of my August 2017. Since I spent last August in Slovenia just like this year’s, the colours I’m saying goodbye now are similar.

In some photos the colours are more obvious, in others more subdued but in all they are natural as is the case with me. More info on locations in the captions.

Happy and a colourful end of summer to everybody!

  8. That is a ridiculously beautiful collection. I love the little shop toward the bottom, the blazing sunset, the building next to it, and the boats in the marina.

      1. I don’t know. Life is colorful, as your photos illustrate! This thread reminds me of The Color Purple. Maybe God gets pissed if you don’t notice the colors.
