🎉 🎄~ HAPPY NEW YEAR 2023! ~🎄 🎉

            ꒌ   ПОКАЖИ СВОЈЕ НАЈБОЉЕ ИЗДАЊЕ ујутру првог дана у години, када најмање очекујеш да те на улазу у планинску црквицу сачека "папарацо"...  ;)
Тако се добија ЦВЕТ ЖАБЉАКА усред зиме! Срећна Нова година!

► █░▓    This was to be my first snapshot of the year, but it ended up (almost) as a reject. I failed with the focusing... this is one example to when the much praised manual focus clutch of the popular expensive zoom does NOT come handy. It is early morning, January the 1st, the camera lies still crammed and switched off in the bag, the hands are cold, the lens cap on and the lens hood off. The ladies are steadily approaching the church entrance. I nearly made it but the clutch remained in the manual position so the AF pressed didn't work.

But these ladies do deserve the credit for the poise so I decided to publish this image in spite of being out-of-focus. The unachieved resolution I leave to your imagination. 
Despite the partying last night, the morning service attendance was high. What a treat, what a joy!

***DEAR PHOTOGRAPHY FRIENDS!*** I WISH YOU STEADY ELEGANT PACE AND RESOLUTE ADVANCING THROUGHOUT THIS YEAR! BEAR THE CONFIDENT SMILE OF THE LADY AT THE LEFT WHEN FACING ANY CHALLENGES THAT WILL CROSS YOUR WAY IN 2023  :)))

Ladies don't forget... any place any moment can turn into a catwalk runway all of a sudden. Be prepared to present your elegance and smile any time of the day AND night!

⛄The best way to start this year was to meet the best of Montenegro at the doorstep of Lord's Transfiguration Church in Žabljak, the air permeated by the sunflakes gently sparkling before the eye throughout the vast expanses of this high mountain. 

And I exactly made it!
