35857. A composition in green, white and pink: blossoms of great masterwort, Astrantia major, veliki zali kobulček in Slovenian
Most images are approximately 683 x 1024 pixels in size,
numbers in front of picture descriptions are
serial numbers of the original photo files. Event participants
who all contributed to the making of these pictures;
Janez Kanoni - Žan, Metod Di Batista, Marjan Baričič, Rok Brajkovič - Brajko, Jure Trenz,
Marjan Juvan - Manč, Nataša and Jernej Petrovčič - Jerko, Matej
Blatnik - who determined the flower in the picture 35857.
Due to a play of unfavorable circumstances the photographer could not
descend into the cave to document the latest discovery - Metod and
Marjan, today's excavation team, have hit the zone of loosely connected rocks.
The tunnel, so far dug into solid stone, has now reached the collapse,
with a promise of larger space and easier digging.
