Another image from the time when the lake was frozen. I like this scene because the kids are just having fun ice skating and driving a motorcycle across the lake.

Frozen

I think Lake Bled is beautiful in all seasons, but there is just something special in those moments after fresh snowfall. Both the church and the castle just look so magical on misty winter mornings.

Winter Paradise II

Beautiful May morning, when nature is already fully awake, adding lush greens to the surroundings.

Early Summer Morning

Winter Paradise III

When flying over the island with your drone in the right conditions, it almost appears like the island is floating in the sky.

From the Air

Lake Bled doesn't freeze very often. It only happened twice in the last two decades, so we were all very excited when it happened in January 2017. I was at the lake every morning trying to make as many images as possible. It was a foggy morning and ice skaters looked like they were disappearing when skating towards the shore. Suddenly for a few brief moments, the mountain in the background revealed itself, making the scene even more dramatic. This image was shortlisted in the Sony World Photography Awards — Open category - Landscape.

Ales's signature collection he worked under for 5 years for - The beauty of Lake Bled. Images are from all seasons, but most are from the time when Bled is the most beautiful, winter.

The beauty of Lake Bled in 15 photographs in one collection, carefully edited and curated. Two of the images from the collection were commended in the Sony World Photography Awards — Open category — Landscape.

The lake surrounds Bled Island (Blejski otok). The island has several buildings, the main one being the pilgrimage church dedicated to the Assumption of Mary, built in its current form near the end of the 17th century.
