"Apple valley" is the popular name dor the upper valley of river Timavo, in the region of Brkini, Slowenien, about half an hour drive from Triest. It is an area I discovered just recently (after the disappearing of border formalities an entire new area has offered itself to my weekend outings) and that offers spectacular subjects for "en plein air" work. Last saturday, in full Spring blossoming it was pure paradise!
