Banyu Wana Amertha in the Morning Mist

I got the chance to visit Bali on the way home from a family trip to China. Bali is renowned for its waterfalls, so I wanted to visit a few and take pictures. At the same time, I knew many of the popular waterfalls would have lines of tourists waiting for an Instagram photo. To avoid these crowds, I needed to pick a spot away from the major tourist centers and get up super early. My choice was Banyu Wana Amertha, a gorgeous waterfall located about two hours north of the tourist hub in southern Bali. I also arranged for a driver to pick me up at 4:30 in the morning to make sunrise at 6:30. My partner, bless her, decided to come with me. We ended up having this gorgeous waterfall to ourselves for a few hours, so I had the chance to take photos from several angles. Of all the photos I took, I like this one the most because of the small red flowers and varied leaves in the foreground. Additionally, the stream leads your eyes towards the main attraction: a visually interesting waterfall made up of numerous small cascades. After this waterfall, we explored a few other waterfalls in the area and learned about the local flora from a guide. I'd consider it one of the best dates I've planned so far! Also, shoutout to our driver, who expertly navigated numerous winding roads on the way there and back.

Orders coming soon!
