This is a famous bridge especially between Greek photographers near Trikala GreeceTime
This is a photo that didn't require waking up at 4 or 5 am , waterfalls surrounded by trees and especially in overcasted days can be easily photographed even in the middle of the day. So I visited this place and took this photo around noonLighting
As I said before when you have a cloudy weather and you don't need to include the sky in your picture it is perfect to go shoot waterfalls. The over casted weather allowed me a low shutter speed enough to produce this silky movement on the water.Equipment
Camera : Canon EOS 6D Lens :EF24-105mm f/4L IS USM at 24mm TripodInspiration
If you check the rest of my photos you can easily understand that I really like old stone bridges. This bridge with the waterfall behind has always been in my bucket list. This was the second time I visited the place. The first time I also had the light I wanted but it has been raining for days and the water was full of dirt from the mountains so I didn't have this crystal clear blue color I wanted. The second time I had more luck with crystal clear water and with enough flow to get the result I wanted.Editing
Yes I always do a post processing first of all because I shoot raw files This picture didn't need much only some tone and color correction and of course the setting of white balanceIn my camera bag
Now days I am using the Fuji GFX50R with 2 zoom Fuji lenses the 32-64 and 45-100mm I also have my travel very light tripod and polarizer filters my LEE big stopper and the LEE graduated 100mmFeedback
Greece has many old stone bridges , some of them were built 200 years ago. Some are famous, even outside the Greek borders, some not so much, but they are all very beautiful and really harmonized with the landscape. You can get amazing pictures of these picturesque bridges the rivers , the waterfalls and high peaks around them and each picture is going to be different as the landscape continuously changes with the season the light and the weather.
