Fresh Water, Forests + Mountains
Golden Path
When I shot this, I was giving a private photo tour to a gentleman from Omaha, Nebraska. We were hiking through a bamboo forest and he came upon this view of the path and wanted to photograph it. It was really dark and usually the wind pushes these bamboo too much for this to be a viable shot without the leaves blowing too much, but on this day the winds were unusually light.
He set up to shoot the scene as I guided him in the back of the camera. Looking at his perspective, I really liked it, so I set up my camera next to his and shot this take. That just goes to show that even someone like myself who has been up this path a hundred times still needs to learn to look around and try to see through the eyes of others to find the beauty in the world around me.
Thanks Dan, for helping me capture this scene! I literally wouldn't have been able to get this without you!
