These are the Paradis pools, located just before the access point to the Carbet Falls. The access trail is very narrow, steep, and extremely slippery in wet conditions.

Once on location, the shooting area is quite limited, with little room to set up gear and narrow banks surrounded by dense vegetation. However, the pool itself offers great visual potential, with clear water and a strong natural contrast between the rocks and lush tropical foliage.

Just after setting up, a heavy tropical downpour hit. Fortunately, all my equipment is weather-sealed (camera bodies and lenses). I managed to capture a few shots, mostly wide-angle frames, before having to pack up quickly.
