nice moment to capture this famous island on the lake
the lighting of the evening is interesting
and the BG with the clouds hidding the mountains make the tower popping up

Superb and haunting capture. It would have been so easy to overexpose the image but you have controlled both the exposure and composition beautifully. Very nice handling too of the pastel colours. Excellent.

Hi Grzegorz ,
Like a fairy-tale ! Simply fantastic shot ! This beautiful place with surrounding natural beauty is simply superb. A wonderful composition by you with excellent sharpness and very good framing.
The reflection in the water is amazing.

Hello Grzegorz,
I visited Bled in summertime but I have to admit that on this winterview it looks even more beautiful.
The picture shows the three landmarks of Bled: the island with the church, the castle on the rock and the parish church.
The reflections are wonderful, the light is very good, specially on the parish church.
The whole looks like the ideal picture for a Christmas card.
Best regards, Paul

Hello Grzegorz,

a very atmospheric melancholy shot with just the island standing out from the foggy background. I think the dark autumnal atmosphere would be underlined if you turned it into b/w.

So beautiful,
Katrin.

Hello Grzegorz,
Beautiful tone indeed! color attracts me strongly, and velvet touch of the lake using a long exposure is superbly depicted. Delicate grey border enhances the quality of this work further. very refined work!
Best wishes, Hisashi

Hi Grzegorz,

Nice reflections. The misty atmosphere looks very mysterious. The low light gives it a special look. Smooth tones on water.

Have a nice time
