Since I was a little girl I always wanted to visit El Yunque. El Yunque is a tropical forest located in Puerto Rico. You can find many species like the Puerto Rican parrot, el coquí, and even pieces of our history. I never had the chance to visit El Yunque and I don't live anymore in my Isla del encanto, but one day I am coming back to discover all the things I wasn't able before.
But El Yunque was the inspiration for this goal of being in a forest. And I did what I do with all my goals, accomplish them. I took this photo in the Blackwater Falls State Park in West Virginia. Near the Monongahela National Forest. A perfect spot for those who like remote places. My emotions took over me, realizing it was the first time I was in a forest. While I was driving, I could see baby deers what reminded me of the bambi movie.
After five hours of driving, I wasn't tired enough to start hiking this amazing place. It was also, my first experience camping and my first waterfall photo in slow speed. This photo represents many first things done in that day.
Quick little introduction here, my name is Andy, I go by they/them pronouns but most importantly, I do film photography. I have been a photographer for about 6 years. My IG is andybrunet_ and I’m based in Montréal.
A rainy morning on the first National park I ever visited. I didn't even know that Ohio had a National Park. Must say, that Cuyahoga Valley was my motivation to visit this state.
Every person would ask me, why are you visiting Ohio? What's there? Making me feel, that Ohio it was just a boring state not worth visiting. But, they were all wrong. If you know where to go, and go beyond on what Internet recommend, you can have a nice experience there.
