THE GEAR

The gear I used for all my photos: Nikon D800 with a Nikon 14-24mm  (most of these are shot with my wide angle) and a Nikon 24-85mm.  A MeFOTO tripod and a wide-angle is a must. I edit all my images with my Lightroom Presets download them and give them a try.

These are Kerala’s Best Photography Spots

1. The Villages. When you are in Kerala the first thing you will notice is the beautiful smiles all around you. From kids to adults everyone is smiling in Kerala and it is very contagious. Walk the streets to get some epic street photos.  Lens I recommend is the Nikon 24-85mm Lens.

The food is incredible, the culture is beautiful and the people that call this place home are real, human by nature. Kerala stole my heart.

Indian Fisherman

Indian fisherman are amazing. They wake up way before sunrise to set everything up, then work their asses off. Its quite sad to see all the efforts they put into their craft often for nothing at all. I watched them and talked to them for a while, they said more times then not, they go home empty handed….

First week in Kerala India has been amazing, where do I start? I feel really fortunate and honored to be here. I am with the coolest group of people in a really amazing place. Check out keralablogexpress.com to meet everyone.

As soon as I got here I fell in love with the people, they are so nice, always smiling always hanging out, the women are beautiful, and the kids are just so cool. Everybody is so welcoming and their smiles are contagious. I think in order to understand a place or even start to like it you must first like the people, in this case I love everyone here.

I have always heard about this place, nothing I say will do Kerala any justice, you just have to put it on your bucket list and come check it out…

Kerala Blog Express

Good morning people, I woke up kind of in a rush, I just realized I leave for India tomorrow and I have nothing ready. I while back I posted on my FB a link to Kerala Blog Express to be sent to India and blog about it for 3 weeks. I got some votes, not a lot but some. (I discovered this thing 3 days before voting was over) (thank you to everyone that voted) Luckily it wasn’t just about votes, and as it turns out Kerala Tourism picked me to be one of the bloggers for this trip, and I am really exited :)

Immediately after I got the email, I applied for my Visa, and it took a while but it finally got approved. After that I purchased all my flights and I am now fully ready to get out of here for a few and go check out India. (besides packing) For the next 3 weeks I will be blogging and posting more often than usual. Please don’t get annoyed I will try to only post really cool photos :) You can follow my twitter feed @edinchavez and #keralablogepxress to see what I am up to over there. I will also be posting on my Facebook and of course here.

I have also added a translator to the blog, if you look at the top right hand side you can see a translator so you can pick your language (I will be adding more soon) and all this madness will be translated.

Here is the Keralas announcement to the world.
