ON THE HILL NEAR PAZIN

Pazin is a small city built at the bottom of a bowl. Or a basin. Something like that. It's a place surrounded by hills. Yesterday I had to do some stuff there so I took a few shots for today's post which won't be very long.

The weather was dull and cloudy, as you can see in this opening photograph, so I wasn't very inspired while standing there, on the top of the hill with Pazin and its suburbs spread in the deep valley below me.

Here you can see the center of the city. The 45-meter tall bell tower of the parish Church of St. Nicholas is dominating the center of the shot.

The elongated white shapes in the middle of this photograph looked like giant pipes at first sight through the naked eye.

Only when I zoomed in through the lens of my camera, did I recognize a group of greenhouses surrounded by fields and meadows. In the following photograph ...

... you can see the pretty big house on that same property.

In this, slightly wider shot, you can see the house and the greenhouses posing in the same picture.

Small clusters of houses surrounded by fields, meadows, and patches of woods, not far from the city, looked like scattered islands forming a suburban archipelago around Pazin.

You can see yet another of those suburban clusters in this photograph. The one shown in the following shot ...

... was much closer to the place I was standing in.

I don't know what this is exactly.

(Enlargeable)

It looks like a concrete silo. Or some similar industrial structure.

This wide shot shows a good chunk of the valley, almost a half, I think.

On the way back home, I stopped to take a few shots in the area about twenty kilometers from Pazin.

(Enlargeable)

You can see my car parked by the side of the road in this photograph.

Here you can admire the dead leaves before my feet.

AND THAT'S IT. AS ALWAYS HERE ON HIVE, THE PHOTOGRAPHS ARE MY WORK - THE END.

Beautiful photos as always. This is my first time of hearing about Pazin. Thanks for sharing your experience with us.

The second photo is my favorite. You were able to capture lots of meaningful buildings in a single shot.

Plenty of similarities between this region and some places in Italy... plenty of shared history too...

So nice to see you back my friend, I Miss you so much.
those elongated tubes of the greenhouse reminds me of when I work in one of those farming company. hahaha
But I guess the one you have there is much bigger than where I used to work in.

Welcome back! Glad to see you back from your long vacation.
Hope you didn’t have excessive snow like in many places this year. Those insects had a hard time in winter.

That snake road looks very nice!

Hi.😃 Good to hear you again.

It was a nice, rainy winter - no snow here where I live. But no insects either, they are starting to appear slowly in the last few days.

The weather could have done more justice to the picture. Imagine having a brilliant Sunshine on the horizon of the City, the multiple layers of houses could have been brightly lit. However, the second picture is my favorite. Zoomed in, the details of the houses in the picture was nice.
