The Plan was to have no Plan ...

... but I should at least have had a Plan "B" :)

The Plan was to have no Plan ...
^{Another rainy Sunday}

A good friend of mine said to me that I should give it a try and don't plan my day but just enjoy it and I might get surprised.
Well, I thought the idea was great and I have had no plan for today anyway, so I just packed my things in the evening and when I woke up at about 2:30 am, I got up and a little later I have been on my way. I had chosen to go south, maybe shoot a sunrise in the mountains or visit a waterfall or photograph something else that would surprise me.

When I left home the sky was clear, the weather was nice and a little later after crossing the border to Slovenia I got my first surprise: the roads were wet and the sky was cloudy, I had not expected such and the surprise got even bigger by driving through heavy rains and thunder storms all morning long till I got home.
The sunrise didn't happen and walking through a gorge or through the woods to a waterfall wouldn't have been comfortable but also dangerous because wet stones can become quite slippery.

Having at least a plan "B" somewhere in my mind wouldn't have been a bad idea were my thoughts while I was driving in the rain, but it is as it is or how my friend Zac would say: "such is life" 😎 and because it was raining everywhere my plan "B" might also not have worked.

But looking back now, all in all it has been a quite nice morning (inside the car) anyway and driving around was nice too, because the roads have been pretty much empty. I have been to Slovenia and to Italy and I have crossed 6 mountain passes on my way ... not bad either.

But on the other hand I haven't got the chance to take any photos today. So, all I have for this post are some images of a small waterfall I have visited in Slovenia a few weeks ago.

The waterfall is in the Radovna Valley in Slovenia and it is not very high but a curved and rather wide man made waterfall. It doesn't look that spectacular in nature - the long exposure times result in such nice effects in the photos.

After I have come home today, I spent the afternoon with editing these and some other photos and developing a plan "B" for tomorrow, because I took a week off and I want to try the same tomorrow morning as I did today - as I said above: the idea of having no plan is great.
So, if I don't reply within a few hours I might be somewhere in the rain ... or hopefully better in the sunshine 🌞

The last photo for today is a panorama of a part of the waterfall - the sun that has just risen was peeking through the trees and has started to illuminate the waterfall in some places.
I am thinking of putting this image to my NFT gallery on Foundation where I already have another panorama photo of this waterfall.
