Clear blue skies are a landscape photographer’s nightmare. It’s hard to know what to photograph on a sunny day with just blue skies. But when you get them, you just have to work with it. More often than not, if you are patient and look hard enough, there is always something you can make out of it all.
In June 2021 I captured some great images of the Strawberry supermoon as it rose behind Mt Krim and beside the Church of Saint Ana on the Ljubljana Marshes. In this blog I tell the story of my shoot, how I got attacked by flies, and the techniques I used to capture and create the images.
As the years go by and we accumulate so many thousands of digital photographs, especially as a professional photographer, it’s easy to forget about the old ones.
The best sunrise images are not always what you had planned. On this morning I had something different in mind, but got something far better.
As I’m stuck in Ljubljana during the peak of the autumn colours and unable to get to Lake Bled, all I can do is reminisce on past autumn shots. Although Bled Lake is probably one of the most photographed locations in Slovenia, it never fails to provide a unique moment. Here I show you some from my Autumn in Slovenia Photography Workshop 2018.
In this article I take a look back at one of my favourite photos that I took way back in the early days of digital.
Read the story behind my latest photos of a Standup paddleboard (SUP) at sunset taken from Strunjan Beach on the beautiful Istria Peninsula, Slovenia.
The story of how I captured a surprise rainbow over the Ljubljana Castle from Neboticnik tower terrace cafe in Slovenia. The best view of Ljubljana.
The story behind the photo I captured of Neowise comet over the Kamnik Alps just as lighning striked over the Kamnik Alps in Slovenia.
It’s important to be patient when doing landscape photography, but my patience was severely tested one morning. I almost missed this great long exposure shot at Saint Thomas Church.
