Location
This photo is taken in La Canalizacion des Oranges, in Reunion Island. It is a spectacular road between mountains.Time
This photo was taken on Sunday, January 5 at 13: 05h during our adventure of crossing the island on foot.Lighting
To take this picture, I took advantage that it was very full of clouds, the light was very soft and next to the edition, I managed to give it that dramatic, epic atmosphere.Equipment
This photo was taken with a Nikon D5300, a Tokina 11-16 at 13mm and f / 8. Also use a Rollei Allrounder carbon tripod.Inspiration
Upon arriving at this spot, images of Max Rive came to mind and I thought I could do something inspired by his photos.Editing
This photo is edited in photoshop next to the Tony Kuypers panel. I have cooled the white balance, darkened the sky, cleared the area of ??the river and enhancing the greens.In my camera bag
My Nikon d5300, tokina 11-16, nikkon 35mm 1.8, nikkor 55-200, Rollei Allrounder tripod, ND filters, polarizing filter, spare batteries and little else always accompany me in my backpack.Feedback
Being in areas of landscapes similar to those we can find in La Réunion, it is very easy to take similar photos. The important thing is to take advantage of the light you have at that time, look for a strong composition, which directs your gaze as the river does in this photo. at the same time, by including a person, apart from the dimension, it gives the photo a powerful close-up.
