The days where everything align are few and far between, but this day was one of them. From the moment I stepped out of the car till I returned to the parking lot almost five hours later, I had been in photography heaven. The only problem was, some of the scenes I encountered were so out of this world beautiful that I fear the images will look over-enhanced. I was literally thinking that as I was shooting them: “this is too much… it doesn’t look real”. But while I always enhance my images, these are very close to what it actually looked like.
Another thing that struck me – and it’s not like I haven’t talked about this before – some of these scenes are as good as anything you will find out there in the world that you spend thousands of whatever currency you use to visit. And that’s fine. I love to travel, too. But I think most people in the world could find amazing places less than 30 minutes from their homes. All you need to do is go out there, absorb it, spend time, keep your eyes and mind open… and magic will happen.
