This place is pure peace. The trail to get there is not marked, various turns make it easy to get lost. There is of course neither infrastructure nor electricity, nothing to be bought or sold, no noise, rarely a soul in sight. Just nature.

It was fun to shoot! Difficult light conditions but eventually the sky opened up and I got to fly up the river!

Location: BRAZIL. Poço do Gavião, Vale do Capão, Chapada Diamantina, Bahia

Not sure there's a lot to criticise. Maybe a slightly slower flight over the rapids, is all.

Thanks mate! I really tried my best to do the place justice because I really love it there. The water color is due to minerals, the region is famous for that. It is perfectly drinkable, coming straight from the mountain without any human interference

I totally could have! I asked her to lay still, it´s my biggest regret with regards to this video! She could have walked into the scene or dangled her feet in the water or jumped in elegantly... Next time!

I think standing on that rock facing away from you with her arms in the air (Like a Y) and you fly past from behind.

I asked her, she said we should go back there and shoot again after quarantine

Beautiful colors. Nicely done!
