Location
This photo was taken in Krimml waterfalls (Austria's tallest waterfall (380 m)), located near the village of Krimml, in the Hohe Tauern National Park in the state of Salzburg.Time
On the day of the photo we went early because the route to reach the highest point is 4.15 km with an altitude difference of 431 meters. This photo was taken on July 29 at 08:57 am minutes shortly after starting the tour.Lighting
The light made it possible to see the suspended water of the waterfall, however, there was a great contrast of light between the waterfall (more illuminated) and the area of the trees (more shadows). At the time of exposure, an appropriate balance was sought between the two areas so that it was not overexposed or underexposed.Equipment
This was shot on a Canon 6D, with an 16-35mm f / 4 L IS USM.Inspiration
From the road you can already see how impressive these waterfalls are. The particularly impressive location at the entrance to the valley and an extraordinary waterfall height of 380m over three stages make the Krimml Waterfalls an impressive natural spectacle. You can feel its force. They are also the world’s fifth highest waterfalls.Editing
This photo was taken in raw format and developed with Camera Raw. Later, I used Photoshop to process it in black and white, taking Ansel Adams' black and white landscape photography as a source of inspiration.In my camera bag
Normally, when I travel, in addition to the Canon EF 16-35mm f / 4 L IS USM, I carried the Canon 24-105 mm 4 L in my bag. I also usually carry Lee filters (ND Grads, Big Stopper) and Cullmann Neomax 240 travel tripod.Feedback
Tips: 1-Get up early. In this way you will avoid the number of people who can be in such a tourist place as the Krimml waterfalls. 2-Put a protector on your camera if you don't want it to get wet. 3-Look for a different frame to avoid taking the typical photo.
