Soča River in a wedding dress 😀 ❄️
Visited Barutana Spomenik near Podgorica for the first time — such a fascinating spot. The monument itself has that raw, brutalist vibe, standing quietly, hidden from plain sight. I didn’t know what to expect, but the atmosphere and light were perfect, and I managed to get some really cool shots.

Kropa town, Slovenia
I always loved how this beautiful church stands above the town, surrounded by forest. And I have many shots of it in different seasons. This time I had an opportunity to fly a drone and get capture it from a different angle...

Lake Bled - frozen.
This photo is from 2017, the last time when we had an extended period of cold weather and the lake froze enough we could walk to the island! Fingers crossed for this coming winter 🙃

An image from my recent workshop in Montenegro. On arrival at Durmitor NP, the mountains were freshly covered in snow — autumn had turned to winter overnight. One of my first shots of the trip, and I like it more and more. I love how the tones contrast and how the beech trees defy the elements.

I visited the iconic church of Lake Bohinj. And there are baby dragons, white devils and vampires inside!

Autumn sunrise at Črni Vrh.
The Polhov Gradec hills near Ljubljana offer amazing views like these everywhere you go. I often go exploring without clear plan. And sometimes, just sometimes, I get lucky - like this time when I discovered this view through the trees while driving.

This must be my favourite view of Venice. It has been a while since I photographed this beautiful city! Time to revisit in Winter 😀

we stopped in this tiny little town when we saw mists rising from the forest. This created a wonderful mood and we captured some wonderful images during our Autumn in Slovenia photography workshop. Which one do you like the most?
