The Vršič Pass is a high mountain pass across the Julian Alps in northwestern Slovenia. It is the highest pass in Slovenia, as well as the highest in the Eastern Julian Alps. It connects Upper Carniola with the Trenta Valley in the Slovene Littoral.
And one of those peaks is Prednje robičje (1941m), where this image was taken from. On Sunday afternoon me and a friend of mine @nino.frelih were still quite undecided where to go - I just knew I wanted to capture probably the last winter Milky way arch of the season above snow covered peaks and this location was sort of a last minute idea while we were driving towards Vršič pass.
