I absolutely love cloud forests
-- the fresh, cool air, the abundant growth, and the misty atmosphere all
combine for an invigorating photography environment. Nonetheless, obtaining
successful landscape images inside cloud forests is a challenge. The growth is
so lush and exuberant that it can be difficult to find orderly, pleasing
compositions. I was able to find one at this small double cascade inside the
Monteverde Cloud Forest Preserve. On the artistic side, I composed so that the
viewer's eye travels diagonally through the frame. On the technical side, I
used a slow shutter speed to give a silky texture to the water and a polarizing
filter to cut glare and saturate the greens.
There are many wonderful landscape compositions awaiting the photographer in
Costa Rica, and I hope that you'll discover some with me on a Holbrook photo
expedition!
Tech info: Canon 20D, Tokina 28-70 mm f2.8 zoom lens, cable
release, Manfrotto tripod, circular polarizing filter, f22 for 2.5 seconds, ISO
100
I hope you’ll join me in the field soon on a Holbrook photographic safari in
Costa Rica!
