When The Stillness Comes by MarselvanOosten by MarselvanOosten

This is the color version of one of the images from my black and white series ‘Into The Cypress Swamps’ that won me the overall title in the Travel Photographer of the Year competition a few months ago.

This one also has a more panoramic look, which was not possible for the bw version as that one was part of a series. It’s my favorite shot of the series, clearly because I’m in it. And the light isn’t too bad either.

The image was shot with a remote control – the camera was on a tripod that I carefully positioned in the water.

If you would to see this amazing scenery yourself – we have set up the world’s first Cypress Swamps photo tour to Louisiana and Texas. The 2016 tour is already fully booked, and there are only 6 spaces left on our three 2017 tours. If you’re interested, don’t hesitate and reserve your spot here: http://www.squiver.com

This is a unique photo adventure (until the usual suspects start copying us again) that will result in unique images. We will take you to the best spots and give you tons of tips on how to get the best results. And on how to prevent you from unwillingly donating your camera gear to the swamp gods – proper kayak technique! I know you’re interested, so why not have a look at the tour brochure here: http://ift.tt/1WvbYAD

Looking forward to paddling with you!
