Flight over Julian Alps

Julian Alps is one of my favourite places in Slovenia. The scenery is extremely beautiful at all times of the year and I’ve already spent a lot of time there photographing. This October I had an opportunity to experience this beauty from totally different perspective – from the air. As a part of the Autumn colours photo tour run by my company Adriatic2Alps (the website is being renovated) we flew two times; from the Lesce airport and from Bovec. On the first flight we were three photographers on board, Mary, Ana and myself. Read more

Magnificent views from Mt. Krn

Krn is one of the most popular peaks in Julian Alps. The mountain has a distinctive shape and it towers just behind Dreznica village in Soca river valley. With its 2244m above sea level Krn offers unsurpassable views of surrounding Alps and even to the Adriatic coast. Read more

Hiking the Kosuta ridge

A day after I graduated (finally) I went hiking to Karavanke Alps in Gorenjska region. The weather was superb and I decided to go to Kosuta mountain range. Starting point was Kofce pasture hut and the first goal was Veliki Vrh peak. From there I walked the range to the East and enjoyed vistas of Slovenian and Austrian Alps. Read more

Pericnik Waterfall in Winter

Pericnik Waterfall was on the top of my wish-list for photography this winter. Until now I was too busy with my other projects and I couldn’t go there although the weather conditions were perfect. It was arctic cold for the last month and the weather was shiny. This weekend I checked the weather forecast and realised that there will be only one day before the thaw. A call for an action!

Julian Alps – a beautiful day.

Neja and I decided to go hiking to Julian Alps. For the first time this year. Since we had time only till afternoon we decided to drive to Vrsic a 1611m high mountain pass. Vrsic is a great base to explore surrounding area and there are a few easy accessible peaks to visit. We left our car at the top of the Vrsic (there is a parking fee) and headed to Sleme.

Bear’s head

This time just one photo. It was taken this spring near Tolmin in Soca river valley. It was quite difficult to get this shot – it was raining and it was windy. Well it was worth to get all wet for a shot like this !

Alpine fairytale

Gorenjska region of Slovenia is probably the most picturesque part of the country. Its high mountains, narrow valleys, emerald rivers and small alpine villages attract numerous visitors both domestic and foreign. The peak season is summer, especially in July and August when the weather conditions are the best for hiking to the mountains. The main tourist hub is Bled, a small town famous for its lake with beautiful church on a tiny island in the middle of it. During summer it is usually quite busy especially on weekends when also Slovenians come to enjoy its beauties. Not far away, but well hidden is the magical Vintgar Gorge, a place well worth a visit.

Early morning at St. Ana hill

Usually I don’t like to get up early in the morning. But in photography early birds get the best shots. Sometimes even I manage to get my butt out of the warm bed take the camera and go shooting. It was a cold December morning and this time also Crt (you can check his photos here)joined me. We decided to climb the St. Ana hill, which overlooks the Ljubljana marshlands. The sunrise was beautiful and we managed to get a few excellent shots. Yes, a day like this can be really rewarding and we soon forgot, that we got up almost in the middle of the night… Enjoy the photos!
