So many pictures were taken of this beautiful place, but I believe this is the first one using a crystal ball :)

Early morning in Ngorongoro Safari

Porter - Kilimanjaro

Seeing the top of Kili in the first 3-4 days of kilmb is pretty tricky - it's usually covered with clouds. Here I had a few seconds of luck :)

Stairway to Heaven - Masada

Kilimajaro Crater

Elephant Ngorongoro Safari

Jayme B&W

Acrobatic maneuvers

The mountains surrounding Kibo (Kili's highest peak) are breataking. As you continue to head to the summit you experience more of these mountain tops.

Behind The Lens

Location

Toronto Subway

Time

Afternoon

Lighting

The 'trick' here is to manually set the aperture and shutter speed - you want to have as much light as possible, so I used f2.8 and to have a quick, yet not too quick of a shutter speed, so you can feel the motion - I used 1/20 sec. Then, just holding it against the front window (to avoid glare/reflections) and shoot it once the subway took off.

Equipment

Fuji X-E1, 18-55 f2.8-4

Inspiration

I have taken many pictures related to the subway in Toronto #TTCPhotoproject and this one was one I wanted to capture for along time :)

Editing

Very minimal Lightroom adjustments - slight contrast and shadow adjustments

In my camera bag

My Fuji X-E1 and Nikon D7000 with several lenses (11-16 Tokina f2.8h, Tamron 17-50 f2.8 and Nikon 28-300)

Feedback

Go for it - it's simpler than you think :)
