Plitvicka Jezera

Plitvice Lakes National Park, this is the view from near Entrance 1, the rainy day was the perfect day for me here as I wanted to photograph it without so many people and with some interesting clouds and such...but it’s an incredibly scenic park regardless. Worth visiting at least once in your lifetime...
