Lake Bled is nestled within the Julian Alps of northwest Slovenia. Only a brief 3-4 hour drive south of Salzburg, it’s surprisingly accessible from both Austria or from the Slovenian capital of Ljubljana. It’s a smaller city which appears sort of touristy at first however I’ll minimize straight to the purpose…it’s price it. It’s essential to go see Lake Bled.
Sure sure I’m biased, however I’ll guess you didn’t click on on this put up to listen to lots from me, so lets get to the images!
1. Bled Island
Bled Island is house to the Pilgrimage Church of the Assumption of Maria and its structure lends itself to dramatic vistas of the encircling panorama. The island is just reachable by boats, which depart from the shore each 15-20 minutes or so.
2. Swan
I at all times thought this swan appeared prefer it was in a kind of shampoo commercials, you realize those the place the lady (or long-haired man I assume) shakes little droplets of water out of their hair as a substitute of, you realize, utilizing a towel? Yep, precisely that, however I nonetheless love this image, my Sony 70-200mm lens compressed the background properly in opposition to the swan and captured the itty bitty water droplets forged apart.
3. Sidewalk
The beauty of Lake Bled is how walkable it actually is. It’s not a brief stroll by any stretch however there’s a paved path that circles your entire lake. I’ve completely walked your entire lake and beloved discovering issues to take photos of while doing simply that. The autumn colours set in opposition to the inexperienced grass above actually caught my consideration right here.
4. Bled Island once more
Wanting via an area within the bushes I caught Bled Island early within the morning, earlier than the solar forged its golden glow over the mountain village. The tree branches frames the island very properly, I assumed, and stuffed what would’ve in any other case been adverse area.
5. Osojnica
Sure, technically that is one other image of Bled Island, however from a barely totally different perspective. I did an early morning hike (with no flashlight, which is dumb) as much as a hill known as Osojnica. The path was not terribly tough and earlier than I knew it I noticed the view and it took my breath away (okay okay it might need been the hike which took my breath away). You’ll be able to see the city of Bled throughout the lake to the proper and Bled Fort is true behind the island from this image’s perspective. One among my all-time favourite vistas!
