Blue sunrise

Posted by

This is the Church of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Bled Solvinia. It is just minutes after sunrise. THe church is on an island, and it is a popular venue for weddings. There are 99 steps up the bell tower, and local lore states is good luck if the groom carries the bride up to the top.

Carrying the bride up 99 steps? No thanks! I'll pass. I'm staying single because I'm not about that life.
:-D

The photo is gorgeous!
