 Church on Lake Bled by Mel Marilim

November 2024 - Church on Lake Bled

About the Image(s)

This is the iconic Church of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary on Lake Bled, shot during my recent trip. The weather was overcast and misty with intermittent rain. I shot this handheld and due to low light, there was some noise. In post-processing, I applied dehazing, brightened the island, and adjusted the white balance to add warmth. f/6, 1/125, iso 1250, 130 mm

Hi Mel,

This I think is a wonderful rendition of the church. You captured the weather well yet managed to show brightness in the main structure-wow!.One minor suggestion is to consider darkening the lighted portion near the bottom of the image or perhaps cropping it out.

Your work on this picture has made a very atmospheric scene.
I like the way that the church seems to glow.
