Skrlatica looks like the setting sun itself! Outstanding pic.
Skrlatna barva - szkarlatna barwa na moj jezik :)

Breathtaking wild beauty

Voted 10/10

No doubt, it's a masterpiece of alpine photography. Have you taken this shot from Mavrinc,Robicje or V. Kumleh. Regarding Triglav and Škrlatica you have indebted us, dear Sasha.
Cheers, Andrej

	Hasn't voted	Thank you dear Andrej! Shot was taken from the ridge between Vrsic and Sovna Glava, near that bunker close to Postarska Koca. If you look carefully you can even spot the summit cross on Skrlatica! I'm glad I could contribute in putting the Julians Alps on the map of world because they belong there and that in the process I get to know Vid and you, hopefully one day in person too! Cheers! Sasa

Now how did you find this motif, Sasa! We are all passing by Prisojnik, but Skrlatica doesn't appear just like this to all of us. Bravo!!!
