Photographing Lake Bled is like stepping into a dream, and on this particular morning, it felt like I had stumbled into the pages of a fairytale. I arrived before sunrise, the air cold and still, the lake wrapped in a soft, mysterious hush. A delicate mist floated across the surface, while the partly cloudy sky slowly came to life with a muted, golden glow. The scene unfolded gently, as if the light itself was reluctant to disturb the peaceful silence.
The iconic island church stood like a sentinel in the center of the lake, perfectly mirrored in the still water below. The surrounding hills were cloaked in shadows, and a faint veil of fog hugged the distant slopes, adding to the ethereal beauty of the moment. I could feel the chill biting at my fingers, but it was worth every second. There was something eternal about the scene—calm, poetic, and profoundly moving.
This image captures not just a place, but a feeling—a rare, timeless moment when nature held its breath, and I was lucky enough to be there to witness it.
