Alright, it's Monday morning and it's time for some colors. And this time, it's the endless palette of shades of summer greens! A few posts back, (Artifacts of the Past), I mentioned our base for exploring the wonderful Rock Cities of that region of the Czech Republic. This offers another glimpse into what that base looked like as this lake was literally within a stone's throw.

Serendipity is a wonderful thing! And I was really glad I was ready for this one. Having scouted the lakeshore before I already had a few favorite spots. So when a hot air balloon showed up in the distance I grabbed my camera and knew exactly where to run. A few shots later, the balloon disappeared.
