Lake Cerknica


02-Cerknica-043.jpg

A sunny, but crisp November Sunday was perfect for taking photos outdoors. The skies were clear, perfect blue with puffy white clouds.

Fall scenes

It was a gloomy October day which I spent roaming around Gorenjska. The places I visited include the valley of Radovna, Bohinj Lake and the small village of Jamnik. I even got some dramatic light in Bohinj.

Our choir, Cantemus, went to Naples for four days. Apart from giving three performances, we had some free time to explore Naples and its surroundings, including the ancient city of Herculaneum, the still active volcano Vesuvius and the lovely town of Sorrento on the coast south of Naples.

Rollerblading again. The light was sweet, and imagine my surprise when I saw mists rolling lazily across a meadow.

A sunny Monday in September


Smlednik-2a.jpg

I did quite a few things on this sunny September Monday. In the morning, I rollerbladed on my usual route around the village of Zalog. In the late afternoon, I climbed a hill about 20km from my home. On top of this hill there are ruins of a castle from which you can admire the beautiful view to the west. After that, I drove to a nearby lake and watched a couple of boats and the reflections of the clouds on its surface.

Around a pond


01-40827-ribnik-018-WE.jpg

There is a pond about 15 km from my house, and it offers a plethora of interesting things to photograph. It's quite small, but the fauna and flora around it is plentiful. I was only there for about an hour, but I could have easily spent the whole afternoon taking pictures.

Jezersko


40822-Jezersko-011-WE.jpg

It was a sunny Sunday afternoon after a day of rain and the sky was deep blue... well, at least until noon when the white puffy clouds started to roll in. It was a perfect day to go out and shoot some pics.
Jezersko is a small village in the heart of mountains from where a short valley reaches all the way to a 1km-high rock face on the northern side of the Kamnik Alps. Unfortunately, the place was packed with picnickers, but if you hiked away from the road, you could have the place to yourself.

Late afternoon around Zalog


01-Zalog.jpg

This was another rollerblading trip. If the weather looks promising, I always take my camera with me when I go either rollerblading or hiking. The late afternoon light makes the landscapes magical.

Punat


40807-Punat-089-WEF.jpg

This is my first attempt at capturing lightning. I must have shot a hundred photos and the camera was getting really hot by the time the storm was over.

Sunrise mist


Postojna-01.jpg

It's hard to get up early in the morning, but for pictures like these, it's worth it, at least to me! All photos taken in the vicinity of Postojna.

Bled


40628-Bled-056-WE.jpg

It was late June, but the weather was like in April. When I got to Bled, I thought it was going to rain. Luckily, black clouds started to fall apart and the sun got through. I walked along the lake bank and watched the sky change. And of course, I waited for the sunset.

Sunrise from Sv. Jošt hill


Jost-3.jpg

I mustered all of my will and got up at 3.30 to shoot the sunrise. It was bitterly cold on top of Sv. Jost hill, but seeing the sunrise unravel in front of my eyes was worth it.

Sunset in Tunjice


40614-Tunjice-10-WE.jpg

I was hoping for a nice sunset so I drove to a nearby village of Tunjice with a better view to the west than from my house. The sunset was not as spectacular as I had hoped it would be, so I decided to do some experimenting.

Kamniška Bistrica


40606-KamnBist-13-WE.jpg

I packed my camera and tripod and went shooting a brook in the Kamniška Bistrica valley. I managed to get my feet wet as well as my tripod. The camera stayed dry, fortunately.

A day trip to Gradec/Graz, Austria


40530-Graz-67-WE.jpg

Our choir, Cantemus, went to Gradec one sunny Sunday in May to give a concert in one of the churches there. The day was quite packed and we only had 45 minutes to do some sight-seeing. What I did was hike to the top of the hill in the middle of the town as quickly as possible and take some photos.

Late afternoon in Križ


40524-Kriz-03-WE.jpg

I was bored, the clouds looked nice, so I drove to nearby village of Križ and took a few shots. And the sunset grew more and more dramatic. Just as it neared its climax, my bateries died! Yes, I had a spare set with me, but one of the bateries turned out to be dead. I managed to squeeze a couple of pics out of the camera anyway.

Rollerblading in Gorenjska


40524-Zeje-17-WE.jpg

It was a sunny Monday afternoon, perfect to do some rollerblading on the backroads near my town. Of course, my camera went with me.

Green woods


40519-forest-01-WE.jpg

The trees and bushes were so green and lush that they just begged to be photographed. So I took my camera and tripod to a forest not far from my house and had a photosession. The models stood very still, apart from when there was some breeze. :)

Colorful fields near Vodice


40518-Vodice-23-WE.jpg

This was another rollerblading trip. It took me over two hours because I stopped so often to take photos. The fields were really colorful, the grass in the meadows had been cut and the hay ready to be stored away.

Spring in the mountains


40501-MackinKot-15-WE.jpg

It was in the beginning of May, everything was in bloom, who could stay at home? The mountains over the Kozjak pass are remote and rarely visited, although some of the valleys have roads. This spot is my favorite and it offers great views in any season.

Yellow meadows of Mekinje


Mekinje-2.jpg

Mekinje is a village near Kamnik. The combination of yellow meadows and the beautiful backdrop of the Kamnik Alps made for a good photo op.

Hiking to Šenturška gora


40423-Senturska-37-WE.jpg

Šenturška gora is a hill close to my town, Kamnik. The starting point of this hike was Tunjice, a small village 5km from Kamnik. The hike was short, about two hours of moderate walking, and it took my friend Urška and me through forests to the top of Šenturška gora where there is a church and a graveyard. On the way back, the path led us past a few farms on the slopes of the hill until we reached Tunjice again.
