My Travel Note From Bitung North Sulawesi
Pagi itu saya bangun Dari tidur yang nyenyak, waktu Masih menunjukkan pukul 03.00 dini hari namun saya harus segera bersiap karena hari itu saya bersama rekan sesama photographer landscape akan mengambil Foto Sunrise di sebuah Pantai di Bitung, Sulawesi Utara.
Saya Mempersiapkan Mobil saya, semua peralatan Fotografi, baik itu kamera, lensa, tripod Dan filter sudah siap semua. Saya memeriksa kembali peralatan yang saya bawa, terutama memory card, jangan sampai semuanya menjadi percuma karena lupa membawa memory card.
Perjalanan menuju Bitung saya tempuh dalam waktu 45 menit. Cuaca cukup mendukung, setidaknya tidak ada gerimis hari itu. Saya berjumpah bersama rekan saya, kemudian melanjutkan perjalanan menuju lokasi Foto dengan sepeda motor.
Kami melewati jalanan yang cukup sempit, melewati sebuah Pasar yang Saat itu Mulai ramai, lalu kemudian tiba di sebuah gang sempit di samping pabrik pengalengan ikan. Sesekali tercium bau amis Dari limbah ikan di belakang Pantai. Kami kemudian berada di sebuah dermaga kecil, tempat bongkar muat ikan yang akan di olah di pabrik pengalengan ikan.
Kami Mulai mencari komposisi Foto yang pas, mentari perlahan Mulai muncul Dari ufuk timur, semburat warna merahnya membuat kami bersemangat. Saya cukup bahagia karena foto Pertama berhasil saya dapatkan.
Saya melanjutkan perjalanan mencari-cari komposisi Foto selanjutnya. Saya melihat seorang nelayan yang bersiap untuk melaut, saya mengambil fotonya dengan sigap. Dan Berikut adalah hasil Foto yang saya dapatkan.
Lokasi berikutnya berfokus pada penampakan Gunung Dua Bersaudara yang nampak Dari kejauhan. Gunung yang sangat Iconic untuk Wilayah Bitung. Dan berikut adalah hasil Foto yang saya dapatkan.
Banyak Foto yang saya dapatkan di Lokasi ini sebelum akhirnya saya menyudahi hari itu. Kami kemudian kembali ke Rumah rekan saya, berbincang sejenak ditemani secangkir kopi hangat, berbincang tentang Fotografi tentunya. Lalu kembali ke Rumah saya untuk mengedit Foto hari itu untuk saya upload di media sosial.
Demikian perjalanan singkat saya untuk berburu Foto Sunrise. Semoga anda menikmati catatan perjalanan singkat ini. Nantikan di edisi selanjutnya. Terimakasih kepada @benoitblanc Dan Wox Community yang selalu mensupport kontes ini. Terimakasih.
ENGLISH VERSION
That morning, I woke up from a deep sleep. The time still showed 03:00 AM, but I had to get ready because that day I was going with a fellow landscape photographer to capture a Sunrise at a beach in Bitung, North Sulawesi.
I prepared my car and all my photography equipment—camera, lenses, tripod, and filters—everything was ready. I double-checked the gear I was bringing, especially the memory card, so I wouldn’t waste the whole trip by forgetting it.
The journey to Bitung took 45 minutes. The weather was quite supportive, at least there was no drizzle that day. I met up with my colleague and continued our trip to the photo location by motorcycle. We passed through a narrow road, went through a market that was starting to get busy, and then arrived at a narrow alley next to a fish canning factory. Occasionally, the smell of fish waste from behind the beach could be smelled. We then reached a small pier where fish unloading takes place to be processed at the fish canning factory.
We began searching for the perfect photo composition, and the sun slowly started rising from the eastern horizon. The red hues made us excited. I was quite happy because I managed to get my first photo.
I continued searching for other compositions. I saw a fisherman preparing to go to sea, and I quickly took his photo. Here is the result of the photo I took.
The next location focused on the view of the Two Brothers Mountains visible from afar. The mountain is very iconic for the Bitung area. Here is the result of the photo I got.
I took many photos at this location before finally wrapping up for the day. We then returned to my friend’s house, chatted for a while over a cup of warm coffee, and discussed photography, of course. Then, I went back to my house to edit the photos from the day to upload them to social media.
That was my brief journey for a sunrise photo hunt. I hope you enjoyed this short travel note. Stay tuned for the next edition. Thanks to @benoitblanc and the Wox Community for always supporting this contest. Thank you.
