FROM THE PHOTOGRAPHER'S DIARY: A DAY ON KOZARA WITH GOATS

On the trails of Kozara National Park, unique photographs were taken, capturing goats with attitude, bearded philosophers of the mountain, some pensive goats, and the hippie herd of Kozara.

The author of these shots is the renowned Banja Luka photographer Tomas Damjanović, who last summer set out for Kozara with his camera gear on his ack and no clear plan – other than to go wherever the path took him.

As part of the 360° virtual tour project in collaboration with the Faculty of Natural Sciences and Mathematics, Tomas spent his days immersed in nature – both literally and metaphorically.

Alone, without signal, without the noise of the city, in the company of trees, wind, and silent animals.

Among them – goats, calmly observing the world, as if they had just stepped out of some psychedelic postcard of freedom.

"Loaded with photo gear, glued to my backpack, sweetly exhausted, enchanted by the strong forest air that clears the mind and an environment that shifts you from within," Tomas described his feeling.

Kozara is not just a hiking destination – it’s an inner journey.

If you need a break from the world, a place that doesn’t ask questions but gives answers – Kozara is waiting for you.

And perhaps, just like Tomas, you’ll be greeted by its most unusual inhabitants – hippie goats who know more than they let on.
