Summer Portrait of Kopaonik Mountain: Landscape Photography

As Kopaonik is one of the favorite tourist destinations in Serbia, it is also very inspiring for photographers - challenging and irresistible!
Escape from the difficult and tense everyday life of last year, in which we all found ourselves, turned a vacation on Kopaonik into a relaxing job, because going to this mountain beauty without photographic equipment is almost unthinkable, especially when it comes to a professional photographer. Thus, before the trip, it was very easy and without any thought to decide to start creating the Kopaonik summer portrait. ☺️

A walk on the mountain slopes, and at the same time their exploration, led to a certain perception of the Kopaonik landscapes and thus enabled the creation of his landscape photography. Where the peaks kiss the sky, where conifers embrace deciduous forests and hidden corners relentlessly entice, discover the picturesque mountain shapes and contours that give inexhaustible inspiration for playing with shots, as well as a special note for their visual memorization.

The creation of a mountain portrait largely depends on both geographical features and weather conditions. The fact that Kopaonik is also called Sunny Mountain is confirmed by tied August sunny days in a row that gave a special charm to landscape photography - the constant play of sun and clouds, their streaks on the outlines of slopes, explosions of colors, reflect the most representative images of nature. Thus, sunny weather, as a constant of staying and photographing on Kopaonik, became the main feature of his summer landscape photography.

Photographing Kopaonik is always challenging and irresistible - various shapes and contours, diverse flora and fauna, the smell of conifers bathed in the summer sun, the noise of its streams, springs, waterfalls and rivers, represent the entire life of the mountain, both in the field and in landscape photography. Shooting at a given moment, at a certain time of year and according to the current weather conditions, as well as all the natural-geographical features of the Kopaonik mountain massif, thus create its authentic overall portrait, forever visually memorized. ❤️
