Hr: U Plitvičkim jezerima jesen je pokazivala svoje najljepše boje.
En: In Plitvička jezera, autumn was showing its most beautiful colors.
Hr: Drveće se zlatilo, zrak je bio hladan, a svuda se čuo šum vodopada.
En: The trees were turning golden, the air was cold, and everywhere you could hear the sound of waterfalls.
Hr: Luka je stajao na drvenoj stazi, gledajući kroz kristalno čistu vodu.
En: Luka stood on the wooden path, gazing through the crystal-clear water.

Hr: Ana i Ivan stajali su pored njega.
En: Ana and Ivan stood beside him.
Hr: Ana je bistrila svoja zapažanja, dok je Ivan bilježio sve što su vidjeli.
En: Ana was clarifying her observations while Ivan noted down everything they saw.
Hr: Luka ih je pažljivo slušao, ali misli su mu lutale.
En: Luka listened to them carefully, but his thoughts wandered.
Hr: Morao je pronaći nešto posebno.
En: He had to find something special.
Hr: Neku vrstu koja bi mogla potaknuti zaštitu ovih prekrasnih jezera.
En: A species that could inspire the protection of these beautiful lakes.
Hr: "Vrijeme se pogoršava," rekla je Ana, primjećujući tamne oblake na horizontu.
En: "The weather is getting worse," said Ana, noticing the dark clouds on the horizon.
Hr: Ivan se složio, dodajući da im je oprema mokra i da bi se trebali vratiti u kamp.
En: Ivan agreed, adding that their equipment was wet and that they should return to the camp.
Hr: Luka je znao da je pritisak velik.
En: Luka knew the pressure was great.
Hr: Fondova je bilo malo, a prognoza vremena nije bila obećavajuća.
En: Funds were scarce, and the weather forecast was not promising.
Hr: No, nešto ga je tjeralo naprijed.
En: Yet something pushed him forward.
Hr: Duboka želja za otkrićem.
En: A deep desire for discovery.
Hr: "Dajte mi još sat vremena," molio je, "Osjećam da smo blizu nečega.

Hr: "Unatoč dvojbama, ekipa je nastavila s njim.

Hr: Nemir na površini vode.
En: A disturbance on the water's surface.
Hr: Riba, kakvu dosad nije vidio.
En: A fish, unlike any he had seen before.
Hr: Luka je zaronio, obuzetan uzbuđenjem.
En: Luka dove in, overcome with excitement.
Hr: Riba se kretala brzo, ali on je uspio uhvatiti nekoliko fotografija.
En: The fish moved quickly, but he managed to capture several photos.
Hr: Bio je to trenutak koji je sve promijenio.
En: It was a moment that changed everything.
Hr: Oblaci su postajali sve tamniji, a kiša je počela padati.
En: The clouds grew darker, and rain began to fall.
Hr: Ivan i Ana vikali su mu da se vrati natrag.
En: Ivan and Ana shouted for him to come back.
Hr: Bio je to trenutak odluke.
En: It was a moment of decision.
Hr: Nastaviti i riskirati sve ili se povući?
En: To continue and risk everything or retreat?
Hr: Luka je odlučio riskirati.
En: Luka decided to take the risk.
Hr: Brzo je izronio i uspjeli su se vratiti na sigurno prije nego što je bura pogodila jezero.
En: He quickly resurfaced, and they managed to return to safety before the storm hit the lake.
Hr: Kasnije, dok su pregledavali fotografije, Luka je shvatio važnost svog tima.
En: Later, as they reviewed the photos, Luka realized the importance of his team.
Hr: Bez njih, ne bi uspio.
En: Without them, he wouldn't have succeeded.
Hr: Naučio je lekciju.
En: He learned a lesson.
Hr: Znanstveni napredak dolazi kroz zajednički rad i strpljenje.
En: Scientific progress comes through teamwork and patience.
Hr: Ana je sa osmijehom rekla: "S novom vrstom imamo razloga za slavlje, ali moramo se uvijek osloniti jedni na druge.
En: Ana smiled and said, "With a new species, we have a reason to celebrate, but we must always rely on each other."
