[Ligne directrice - Note] Note du photographe [Spanish]
Bled is an slovene town, on the shore of Bled Lake, in the northwest of Slovenia. It is situated at few kilometres of the border with Austria and moreless 50 Km. from Ljubliana The Capital os Slovenia.

Bled is famous for the glacial Lake Bled, which makes it a major tourist attraction. Perched on a rock overlooking the lake is the iconic Bled Castle.

A small island in the middle of the lake is home to the Assumption of Mary Pilgrimage Church; visitors frequently ring its bell for good luck. Human traces from prehistory have been found on the island. Before the church was built, there was a temple consecrated to Živa, the Slavic goddess of love and fertility. One can get to the island on a traditional wooden row barge called Pletna. (part from wikipedia)

Mariano, a wonderful shot. I like the branches in the foreground - it gives it depth. The edge of the boat is a little distracting...... thanks for sharing mark

you should sharpen your photo after resizing, looks like a nice place, a bit overexposed but pleasing POV
