David, one of the best images or Bromo I have seen because of the dusk or dawn light in which you photographed this and the clouds in the valleys. Are these pictures always taken from an airplane or did you have to hike up a peak? Posted: 10/12/2024 12:13:43
Thank you.
I woke up at 2 AM and journeyed to the location by jeep from the hotel. I had to walk about 30 minutes from the drop-off point to the site. I intended to take some star trail images, but unfortunately, many photographers and non-photographers were already there that early in the morning. I saw some people flying drones and was told they could not fly toward the crater. If you fly a drone in the Bromo area, it's best to reconfirm with the local authorities. Posted: 10/13/2024 09:38:14
