It is a glacial lake and is known as The Black Lake located on Mount Durmitor, at an elevation of 1,416 m and is 3 km from the town of Žabljak.
My son Peter and I first explored this location back in 2005 or 2006 and we have had workshops there every year since that first exploration of this amazing and so far little-known photography destination.  Before setting out in 2006 we identified a place to stay near Žabljak.

It’s been more than 20 years now since I founded www.explorelight.com and gave up my day job to immerse myself fully in my photography. My work has been published in various magazines including Photo Art International and Outdoor Photographer. I have also featured in numerous radio and TV celebrations of the work created by myself and my son Peter, European Professional Photographer of the Year 2013. As I reflect on almost a lifetime of making images and teaching others to find their voice in photography I realize that unique self-expression and authenticity are the ultimate goals in this great medium. The changes that have taken place in these past 10 years motivate me to share my journey and in so doing provide insights so that others can learn to find their voice in photography.
