Moje noro leto 2016 v fotografijah

Moje leto 2016 je bilo glede na vse dogajanje res nekaj posebnega. Po eni strani sem neizmerno vesel, da se je ogromno stvari razpletlo v mojo korist in sem trenutno še vedno tu. 🙂 Če pa pogledam z druge strani na vse žalostne dogodke tega leta, pa je bilo tole leto zagotovo eno izmed najbolj “usranih” do sedaj. Mogoče bi se z njim primerjalo le še leto 1978, ko sem bil zaradi pomanjkanja pampersk pa res dobesedno še precej bolj “usran”. 🙂 🙂 In ker je novo leto tik pred vrati in ker me spremlja fotografija skoraj na vsakem koraku, tako pri + kot tudi pri – dogodkih in stvareh, pa v spodnjih vrsticah podajam nekaj fotografij, ki so zaznamovale moje leto 2016.

Year 2016 was truly special. In both ways. In one way I am extremely happy to still be here but on the other hand it was a year with just too many negative situations.  I can say that it was one of the shittiest year till now. Well, maybe it was even worse in year 1978 when there was no modern diapers and I was …. Well, you know what I mean. 🙂 And because its the end of the year I decided to publish some photos that marked my year 2016.

– v mesecu februarju smo se podali na 3 mesečno potepanje po Aziji. 3 mesečna pot, kjer smo odkrivali še zadnje skrite kotičke JV Azije, je ponudila praktično vse, kar si popotnik želi – mislim, da ti dve fotki povesta vse.

– in February we went on a 3 month long journey through Asia. It was spectacular, unforgettable and I hope that we could do this again someday.

– srečanje z orangutani v divjini je doživetje, ki te težko pusti ravnodušnega.  Ko pogledaš v njihove oči in vidiš, da imaš na drugi strani enakovrednega sogovornika – noro!!!

***

– meeting Orangutans in the wild is an unforgettable experience. When he or she looks into your eyes – well you know that you are dealing with a really intelligent buddy. 🙂

– imam privilegij in veliko srečo, da ogromno mojih poročnih parov razmišlja izven tistih običajnih poročnih okvirjev. V preteklosti sem tako fotografiral na kar nekaj nenavadnih lokacijah. Letos zagotovo zmaga prošnja J&T, ko sta me po telefonu povprašala, če bi se lahko fotkali na jadrnici … na reki Krki. 🙂 🙂 A je lahko še boljše? 🙂

***

– I am sooo happy that my wedding couples think out of the box. In recent years we had photo shootings on some not really common wedding places. But this year suggestion from J&T wins – shooting on a sailboat in the middle of Slovenia on a river Krka – probably just once in a lifetime. 

– Lokacija na spodnji fotografiji je zagotovo ena izmed lepših, kjer smo preživeli noč. In ker so unikatne lokacije ponavadi precej težko dostopne, je ta očitna izjema – do nje se pripelješ do še preveč lepem cestišču. 🙂

The location below was one of the best locations we slept so far. The view leaves you speechless.

– Mesec marec je bil mesec kulinaričnih presežkov. Najprej specialiteta otoka Siberut – haribo bonboni alias sago črvi, kasneje pa še kamboška – pri tej jedi ne najdem primerjave. Zarodek račke pač ni podoben čevapčiču ali čemerkoli drugemu. Žal.

***

– March was full of interesting culinary delights. First sago warms on Siberut island, after that duck embryo in Cambodia. Sago warms are maybe similar like Haribo candy, but that duck embryo – sorry, but I can not find a comparison.

– Če sem v mesecu marcu naredil na arhipelagu Banyak najglobjo do sedaj narejeno fotografijo ( beri -10m), je bilo mesec kasneje čas še za najvišjo. Takrat na 4296 visokem Tsedo prelazu med mestoma Kangding in Tagong na Kitajskem.

– On Banyak archipelago I made the deepest photo so far (-10m). I don’t dive so its deeper than in our bathtub at home. 🙂 A month later it was time for the highest photo – on Tsedo pass in China, 4296 meters above the sea.

– Dne 2.7.2016 sem naredil največ fotografij v enem dnevu. Poroka Katje in Mateja je bila tako ali tako poroka superlativov in greh bi bilo ne pritiskati na sprožilec tako pogosto. 🙂

***

On 2.7.2016 I made a record in number of photos on a wedding day. Wedding of K&M was amazing and who would not take pictures all the time. 🙂

– V letu 2016 sem prejel tudi novo ime – Aman Jaka. To se je zgodilo na Siberutu, globoko v džungli, med pripadniki ljudstva Mentawai.

***

– In year 2016 I got a new name – Aman Jaka. It happened  on Siberut island, deep in the jungle among Mentawai people.

– v Sloveniji smo bili v letu 2016 bolj malo. Še takrat, ko pa smo bili, sem bil ponavadi ali na rehabilitaciji, fotografiral poroko ali pa doma polnil baterije. 🙂 No, vseeno pa smo naredili nekaj izletov. In najlepša po mojem izboru sta bila zagotovo pohod na Slatnik in Možic ter kanu uživancija na Cerkniškem jezeru.  Priporočam – oboje. 🙂

***

– This year we were not very active in Slovenia. Usually I was in a hospital, maybe photographing weddings or just filling my batteries at home. 🙂 But we managed to make some trips and the best of them were hiking trip to Možic and Slatnik and canoe trip around Cerknica lake. I recommend both.

– slovenske jesenske macesne smo letos zamenjali s škotskimi. In ni bilo švoh. Eden izmed najboljših pohodov, ki smo jih uspeli izvesti, pa je bil jutranji pohod na Old Man of Storr.

***

– In autumn time we traveled to Scotland. And it was not bad. One of the best hikes we made was the hike to the Old Man of Storr.

– 11. aprila ob 7:00 sem se ponovno rodil. V odročni dolini na nadmorski višini cca. 4000 metrov, v senci svete gore Yala, obkrožen z jaki in snežnimi leopardi. Sledilo je nepozabnih 6 dni in edina fotografija, narejena v tem obdobju – jaz v bolnici Kandging po nepozabnem doživetju ravnanja zlomljene roke brez whiskija, protibolečinskih tablet, anestezije ali kar udarca po glavi. Vse od naštetega bi bilo takrat nadvse uporabno. 🙂 Ne priporočam 🙂

– On 11. of april at 7:00 am I was born again. In a remote valley in a shadow of holy mountain Yala, surrounded with yaks and snow leopards. First days after that were miserable and photo bellow is the only photo from that 6 days. It’s me in a hospital in Kangding, just after they tried to reposition my broken arm, without any medicine, anesthesia or Whisky. Well, i don’t recommend that at all. 🙂
