Lake Bachalpsee, Grindelwald, Switzerland | Blue Hour Alpine Lake Photography Print

Mountain Photography of Switzerland's Lake Bachalpsee

Lake Bachalpsee sits at around 2,265 metres above sea level in the Bernese Oberland, a short walk above Grindelwald in the Swiss Alps. It's a relatively small alpine lake, and on the approach it gives little indication of what it offers photographically — but at the water's edge, with the Schreckhorn and Finsteraarhorn reflected in the surface, it becomes one of the most compositionally rewarding locations in the Swiss Alps. This photography print was taken during the blue hour, the period of soft, diffused light that follows sunset when the sky holds a deep, even blue tone and the reflections in still water take on a particular clarity. The image was captured while camping on location overnight at -3°C, which gives some indication of the conditions required to photograph this kind of alpine scene at its best.

The blue hour at altitude has a quality that's difficult to replicate at lower elevations — the air is cleaner, the colours are more saturated, and the absence of light pollution means the transition from dusk to dark is more gradual and more pronounced. Whether you're looking for a piece of home decor that brings the scale and stillness of the Swiss Alps indoors, a mountain landscape print for a contemporary or countryside interior, or a considered gift for a Switzerland enthusiast or alpine photography lover, this Lake Bachalpsee blue hour print is a distinctive piece of artwork that captures a specific and demanding location at its most photogenic.
