This shot is from a higher elevation on the path that follows the edge of the Takachiho Gorge. The Takachiho Gorge is located on Kyushu Island in the Miyazaki Prefecture of Southern Japan.
This gorge is a natural wonder formed by volcanic eruptions and erosion. There are several great spots to take photos, from up here above, and from down below. There are also trailers around where you can find some different views.
When I was taking this photo, I noticed this old Japanese man shooting Manai Falls with a film camera and some impressive Pentax lenses. He was using a tripod and a cable release to capture the waterfall in its full glory. It’s refreshing to see old-school photographers like that who still appreciate the art of film photography.
In this location of the gorge, you can rent a little row boat and take it through the gorge. We did that, and you can see what it looks like from inside the Takachiho Gorge in this photo. I highly recommend it.
This photo was taken on my old Canon 5DmkII and the Canon 70-200mm f2.8L II. It still amazes me how great those old cameras were.
