I just got back from a week vacation in Slovenia!
Awesome country, even more beautiful than I expected.
I've seen lots of mountains and forests, some gorges (like stepping in to the lost world), a huge cave (which reminded me a bit of Khazad-Dûm), some waterfalls, and an awesome castle that was built into a mountain wall.
I'm not really one to share vacation pictures, but I don't want to keep this small selection from you: Facebook link[^] 
Really recommended for people who like beautiful nature.

Wow, those are great pics. Kudos to the photographer too!

If you shoot a couple 100 of pics you accidentally make a good one once in a while

Talk about change induced by world 2.0 -> Before : Photographer = person who has the know-how about exposure, light, placement, ... to shoot beautiful pictures. After : Photographer = person who is able to quickly sort out and select the best out of 40,000 pictures in a limited time.
Apart from that, I am no facebooker, so no way to check out the pictures, but the thumbnails I am allowed to see without subscribing look beautiful. Nice !

It does not solve my Problem, but it answers my question

That still helps!
I think bad to average photographers can now shoot decent pictures while the actual pros can shoot even better pictures than they could 10-20 years ago

One of the best cameras ever, I have it too and it makes gorgeous photos.
I gifted the S9+ to my wife for her birthday (well, a couple of months early but since we're going to Paris for honeymoon we'd like to have a second high quality camera available) and it's even better, it adapts to any lighting condition and the optical 2X zoom makes easy to fix details from a distance.

Yeah, it's really good!
It was the best phone camera when it came out
I was really amazed by the first picture I took with it (which was in a moderately dark room).

Looks great indeed … 2 years ago I visited Bratislava (Slovakia … ),
for a conference and a project meeting … 4 days or so, and only in the evenings
we had some time to walk along the Donau, have a tasty beer …
Such trips are quite nice indeed ...

BTW Last week I was wondering about SOTW,too ,
and by coincidence I was listening to a band from
+/- this area of Europe ... (a band from Austria …)

Where are you in Norway?
I've been to the Lofoten myself, very nice!

Stavanger and Sandness mostly; been visiting friends (the ones that took me to the Ghost-concert, and yes, the idiot then was me, so you and I met without saying) and they showed me around. A very green country, with friendly people. Been on a mountain, and took a "water bus" to a fjord. I'm used to public transportation, just not to using a bus-ticket on a boat.
The difference with the Netherlands is most obvious when you're standing in a line, waiting. The people on board were allowed to get of first, whilst the people who wanted to board simply waited patiently. Came back to the Netherlands yesterday, and there was the Dutch train-boarding proces again - people entering the train by pushing, even before the first one could get out.
Very impressive country; been online once in four days, just for a few minutes, and only seen two police-cars during the entire stay.
Lofoten is more North - but next time I'll drop a hint that I may want to see the Norwegian version of Texel

Friends who take friends to a Ghost concert are the best kind of friends!

Going there for a couple of days next week, on the way to Croatia.
I believe Piran is on the todo list.
Any recommendations that I shouldn't miss?
|
|

|

Haven't been that far down, but I can recommend the Skocjan caves[^] (biggest cave I've ever been in) and Predjama castle[^].
That's the closest I've been to Piran

I like backups!
Came back from lunch today to find I couldn't access the network shares on the NAS - the authorisation was wrong, and it wouldn't accept the passwords. "Odd," I thought. "It's never done that before."
Even odder, it worked by the WookieTab.
So I rebooted the desktop - and it comes back with a Win 10 screen I've not seen before: "Diagnosing your PC",followed by "Repairing your PC", "Rebooting your PC", and repeating the cycle a few times before deciding it couldn't fix it.
Damnit. Something stupid has happened.
OK, reboot to PE from USB, and "Hello AOMEI" - "Restore"
Currently on 63%, and hopefully all will be well shortly - I'd forgotten how different the WookieTab keyboard is!
Only hassle is that today was backup day, so I'll lose a few links and stuff, but nothing that actually matters, hopefully. I'm just glad this happened before I backed up, not after; that would have been wasted most likely.
66% now. Ho hum.
