About this collection
In May 2003 I bought my first digital camera, a Canon PowerShot A70. When it stopped to function in 2008, it was replaced by yet another point-and-shoot camera, the Canon PowerShot SX110 IS. In 2012 I switched to the Micro Four Thirds system which in my opinion is the perfect compromise between quality and weight. Now I use two Panasonic camera bodies (the GH2 and the G6) and several lenses, mostly for travel photography.
In the collection Looking Back: Travel Memories I remember past journeys, posting one photo per day of the trip. In most cases the photo was taken on the same day.
If you follow this collection, please note: Here you will see only a fraction of the photos that I share on Google+. Currently I post most of my pictures in the collection Photos 2017/01-03. If you like my photos, you should visit my Google+ profile https://plus.google.com/u/0/+G%C3%BCntherZettl/posts and follow me - you will then automatically follow any new collection (like Photos 2017/04-06 when it will start in April 2017) and continue to see my images in your Google+ stream.

4 Days in Slovenia and Croatia
Remembering the journey in October 2004 ...
Day 3 (2004-10-25)
On Monday we crossed the border to Croatia and drove to Poreč (on the photo), an almost 2000 years old town on the western coast of the Istrian peninsula. In the afternoon we visited Motovun. This village, situated on a 270 m high hill in central Istria, was the birthplace of race car driver Mario Andretti.
Back in Slovenia, we went sightseeing in Piran. This town - one of Slovenia's major tourist attractions - was just two km away from our hotel.

4 Days in Slovenia and Croatia
Remembering the journey in October 2004 ...
Day 1 (2004-10-23)
In October 2004 we spent a short vacation in Slovenia and Croatia, staying in a hotel in Portorož (Slovenia) for three nights.
On the photo you see the Austria-Slovenia border crossing checkpoint in Spielfeld (border control ended in December 2007 after Slovenia joined the Schengen Area, and started again eight years later because of the European migrant crisis).

3 Days in Cologne
Remembering the journey in March 2004 ...
Day 1 (2004-03-14)
In March 2004 I flew for a short vacation (Sunday to Tuesday) to Cologne. Köln, as it is called in German, is the fourth-largest city in Germany. It is located northwest of Frankfurt am Main on both sides of the Rhine river.
After bringing my luggage to the hotel, I went on a walk through the city's center and also ascended the tower of the famous cathedral (509 steps).
On the photo you see the 266 m high Colonius telecommunications tower.

Day 3 (2004-02-10)
With 18° Celsius (if I remember it correctly), February 10th was an amazingly warm day. I used the lunch break again to take a few photos in the park of the Palais des Nations.
