Gavarnie, Parc National des Pyrénées, October 2018

October 29, 2018 in photographs

Camera and Lens: Sony a6500, Sigma 30mm f/1.4
Settings: ISO 400, f/4.5, 1/60sec

It rained quite a bit on our first day in the Parc National des Pyrénées. We made it to the impressive Cirque de Gavarnie, but couldn't reach the waterfall due to the torrential rain.

Rain can make photography very hard and challenging, and it can ruin your gear in seconds. It also offers some of the best light you'll ever get (even better than sunrise / sunset) and the mood is unbeatable.

This is how I made this image.

If you haven't watched the video of this adventure, you totally should!
