ARIAN ACOSTA THE PHOTOGRAPHER
I enjoy landscape and cityscape photography. It is a great motivation to discover new places, to hike a little further and to get out at unusual times. I like to challenge myself to capture architecture and nature in a different way, therefore I try with different techniques like long exposure, HDR, panoramas and more. Once I get home, I spend long sessions post-processing to create images that I consider beautiful and that also convey different moods.
When it comes to gear, I prefer to keep it simple and portable. I use a Sony α7 III with a 24-105mm f4, a 35mm f2.8, a Mavic Air drone, a Zhiyun Crane Plus gimbal, a 10-stops ND filter, and a Manfrotto befree tripod.
