Every volcano needs a hero

in smartphonephotography •  7 years ago 

Sitting at 3000m and contemplating life. When I am at places like this I get recharged and inspired. It is freaking hard to climb mountains but totally worth it every time. Next volcano I will climb - Acatenango in Guatemala. On the top of this volcano you can see a nearby active volcano having small eruptions every hour, only 1,5 km away! 🌋

All below is shot on my iPhone. I catch myself shooting with my phone more and more as the quality is quite decent and it just lets me react faster and capture those epic moments. Also, I don't have a wide angle lens for my camera so I use my phone instead. Do you enjoy shooting with your phone or always opt for your bigger format camera?

Every volcano also needs a cute doggo! 🐶😜

Gorgeous photo's! I'm a use-my-smartphone girl - it's always with you and you capture that shot in an instant! (Plus, I don't have a fancy camera)!!

Thanks! You don’t necessarily need it, it is rarely about the quality, story beats quality!

How long did it take to climb and do you have photos of the active volcano? Your photos are awesome by the way!

Thanks so much mate! It took around 3 hours fast pace. We started at 1700m or smth like that. The active volcano will come later, I will climb that one in a few weeks
