Behind The Lens

Location

This photograph was taken at GOCTA, the third highest waterfall in the world. which is located in Chachapoyas, Peru.

Time

This photograph was taken one afternoon on August 4, a cool day with a slightly cloudy sky, at approximately 4:45 p.m.

Lighting

The lighting is the natural one of the day, there is no artificial help, the day was somewhat cloudy, letting sun rays escape

Equipment

Canon 7D - Canon 18-135mm lens - photo taken by hand without the help of a tripod - no flash used

Inspiration

The beauty of the enormous GOCTA, it was sought to capture a part of the great waterfall, where the various forms of the rocks receive the water that comes at high speed from the heights

Editing

The post-processing in this image is the most basic, as in most of my photos, some movements in the brightness, temperature and contrast scales

In my camera bag

7D Camera - Telephoto lenses 18-135mm, 100-200mm, 50mm, 18mm, UV filters, Tripod, batteries, flashes, remote control, among others

Feedback

Have the idea of what you want to represent, to be able to choose the point to take the photo and find the desired perspective for the image, always taking into account the intensity of the light in the scene
