Labour Day in Serbia (photo/video story)
Labour Day (International Workers' Day) was a pretty big holiday in socialist Yugoslavia, and as long i remember it was a day to go out in nature, barbecuing, and just relaxing. For a long time we were going to our local forest and it was a bit "extreme" sometimes (a bit of crazy, maybe i will share it someday :) ). Last few years we were using that few free days to visit some new parts of Serbia (you can find my Uvac and Stara planina posts).
This year it was Vrdnik at Fruška Gora.
Fruška Gora is the highest part of Vojvodina at 539 m. It is a national park and was declared in 1960 and covers an area of 266.72 km2. The mountain is a natural geological phenomenon as it is built from the rocks from almost all geological periods. It used to be an island during the existence of the Pannonian Sea. It had a great number of monasteries, and 16 of them survived and are still active today. Most of the Fruška Gora is covered with forests.
And we seen nothing of it :)
Years back the weather for 1. May was not so great, and this year was phenomenal so we decided to do nothing and just chill :) and we were great at it :)
Boško, our greatest friend on trips, friend of mine caries him everywhere (it was on the top of Durmitor, he conquered the highest peak in Serbia, Midžor...)
When barbecuing and ignored for a refill (yes i know, even Dutch says Haineken is like water :) )
We had a little friend
You need to wait for the wildlife :)
And if anyone says it is not hard, I lost my easy chair for this shot. Easy chair was conquered by a friend as soon as i went for the shot :)
As you can see easy chair is not in my possession, damn you squirrel.
Some fun with modified Helios.
Getting ready for the night.
Just chilling by the fire

When you are on the trip with non photographers they usually don't want to stop every 5 minutes to photograph, so you make pictures from a moving car.
