Podstrana (Croatia/ Hrvatska)

Today another post from Dalmatia (region in Croatia). I had already posted about Podstrana here. It is a settlement and municipaty located near Split (in fact only 8 km from this city). Podstrana has about 9000 residens. It is very popular with the tourists. Podstrana has been populated since the prehistoric days. The first people to settle there were  Ilyrians,  more specifically, an Ilyrian tribe called Pituntini. If you want to see what the appeal is, feel free to browse photographs. When I was there this Sunday, the rainy clouds fought battle with the sun...and this elemental stuggle created those silver shades that Impressionist painters were so crazy about. Standing at the beach, I could see just what they were so fascinated with. Sea has its own magic, powerful and ancient force that is hard to explain with words.

Danas još jedna objava iz Dalmacije. Već sam pisala o Podstrani ovdje.  To je naselje i općina smještena blizu Splitu (samo 8 km od samog grada). Podstrana ima oko 9000 stanovnika. Turističko je mjesto, a naseljena je od prapovijesnih dana. Prvi doseljenici bili su ilirsko pleme zvano Pituntini. Želite li vidjeti u čemu je draž ovog mjesta, slobodno pogledajte fotografije. Kada sam bila tamo prošle nedjelje, kišni oblaci borili su se s suncem i to  je stvorilo one srebrne nijanse za kojima su slikali impresionizma bili tako ludi. Stojeći na plaži, mogla sam shvatiti što ih je toliko fasciniralo. More ima svoju čaroliju, moćnu i drevnu snagu koju je teško objasniti riječima.

  4. Koja divota! :) Pa samo priroda može da stvori ovako nešto :) Zna se već da su oblaci poželjni na fotografijama ali ovako nešto je pravo savršenstvo! Posebno mi je prva slika lepa, možda jedna od meni najdražih otkad te znam. Predivno izgledaš i nekako blistaš :) Haljinica je takođe prelepa...

  30. Wow, Ivana, I'm impressed (and amazed!) by the scenery of your photos, you captured great moment, when rainy clouds are fighting with the sun, I have no doubts why painters were so crazy about views such like these ones, because they're breathtaking! What's more, you look very beautiful and feminine in this dress, dear friend :) Hope you had great day :)

You look wonderful, this leo dress suits you so well and I like it how you wear it your hair here. And the pink coat with the fur scarf is also so cute.

  78. Hello Ivana,

    gosh, what a beautiful post!!! I love this location were these photos are taken. This is such a wonderful place - i just can say: hello holiday...;-)

    Your outfit looks stunning as well. Another great looking dress on you. These little black/white "playing thing" is just simple, but have such a big statement! This front print is also nice.

    But my fav pic no.1 is absolutely your last image: this sunset looks amazing with you in the front, looking a little bit shy - i love that pose a lot.
