For the fifth month in a row I have the pleasure of participating in the photo challenge run by Cardinal Guzman. He suggested we should go to the same location every month this year and capture all the seasonal changes. When I agreed to participate I had no idea how much I would enjoy going to this park over and over again. I give you Maksimir – Zagreb – TAKE 5.

I haven’t thought of it before, but yes, this is the best month to have a stroll through that park. Autumn here is not that colourful. Thank you, Sue for your visit.
Is it really five months? My seasons have been so skewiff – winter in Warsaw, tropical Cairns, autumn in Potato Point and now Warsaw spring – I’ve totally lost track of time. But I love the way you follow the seasons in Zagreb. It proves normal continuity, and your photos are wonderful. That lion must be very content – or is he missing savanna? All that green, and reflections and I can’t be terminally envious because I’m in Warsaw in the spring.
π compared to how dull it looks in winter and late autumn this is a feast for eyes π I appreciate your company Meg, and if you happen to stop by Zagreb again, I will make sure to show you around.
If we spend a year in Warsaw, as we’re discussing, I’ll take you up on that! J and I will need respite from each other, apart from the pleasures of Croatia with you as guide.
That house looks so much more appealing when it’s surrounded by green and the lion has found the perfect spot to rest. That turtle: awesome colors! I love that turtle!
When Cardinal first suggested this series I thought to myself ‘how boring!’ That’s me- ever the visionary and so often wrong. π Thanks for helping to prove a point, Paula.
Paula, I always forget I cannot “like” ’em, but I do like ’em. With the locations you pick, one can really see the seasons change. I should have decided for a park too, but I am still counting on the changing light (I always photograph around the same hour for the Changing Seasons Challenge unless otherwise noted). See you around. Cheers!
Love the turtle too — what a beautiful spot, and great images. I’ve finally figured out how to add music to my post, even just a tiny bugle call file π
Looks a lovely place for a stroll at this time of year…
