There are many great viewpoints for photographing Lake Bled. In this video, I show you a different view of Lake Bled that is also the only place from which you can get the Julian Alps and the Castle in one shot. This is a lesser known view of the lake, as most people photograph from the western side; for good reason of course. However, this is location is perfect if you want to get something a little different.
I headed here in the hope of a great after storm sunrise. The forecast predicted that the clouds would break up around dawn, but sadly that never happened and the cloud was so thick the sun couldn’t break through and as result no colour was to seen.
Despite this, instead of packing up and leaving, I adapted to the situation and worked to get some nice long exposures of the clouds and water. I experiment with one and two minute exposures on the clouds and get a few nice shots.
Just when I have packed up to leave though, I wander along a bit to where the famous Lake Bled Pletna boats are moored and discover a great composition. Here I manage to get one of my best photo of Lake Bled ever.
