Photo album from my last trip to Tatra National Park
in August 1998
"Eye of sea" pond and a mountain hostel (at the center of the picture)
Walking beside the pond - notice a mountain's reflection in the water
In front of the "Black pond" . Can you see snow high in the mountain ?
A plate of frozen snow (it was summer!) at the foot of
"Black Pond" (76 metres deep) and "Eye of sea" (about 50 metres deep)
A place where an avalanche (of snow or stones) often starts
Majestic shapes of a mountain
Me, resting after four hours of climbing.
This picture was taken from the top of Rysy, the highest mountain in Poland
