POBphotocontest: WHITE (Rafting Pacuare River-Costa Rica) ENG-ESP
(Edited)
English
Hello, #Hive colleagues and friends. I am delighted to make my first post and it will not be my last in this Proof of Brain community. I wanted to highlight that since my recent addition to Hive I have read very good posts in this PoB community.
First idea
When I saw today that you had a contest (#pobphotocontest) related to the color white, the first ideas that flowed through my brain were too obvious (cow's milk, clouds, snow, the white house, the Sydney Opera House, etc.)
Thinking a little
With a little reflection I wanted to go a little further and started thinking about objects or materials that can change color through some kind of stimulus such as temperature, pressure and that's when the light bulb came on and I thought that water that is colorless when shaken violently changes its color from colorless to white.
Getting closer to the final idea
At first I thought that a good photo would be the waves of the sea hitting against a cliff so that the foam generated is white. However, in this type of photographs you usually see many blue tones of the water and also browns of the rocks against which the water hits.
Bright Idea
A few minutes later I remembered the photos I have saved on my Facebook from a business trip I took in 2012 to Costa Rica.
On that trip, as a final surprise, my friends in Costa Rica had booked me a route of more than 50 km on the Pacuare River to practice rafting. At first I thought it would be crazy, I had never practiced rafting and the next day I had to fly back to Spain. Overcoming the initial fear, the instructor, who was a very nice guy from Paraguay, told us that the previous days it had rained a lot and that we would find a river of difficulty 4 out of 5 and with many eddies of difficulty 5. At that moment, the adrenaline of the first eddies overcame the initial fear and as you can see in the pictures I enjoyed the experience like a little kid. After this experience, I always try in my vacation periods to do some rafting activity. But I have to confess that the first time as in other activities in life was special.
For the contest I leave some illustrative images of how what is colorless can become white and cover almost the entire photograph.
Without a moment's hesitation, I recommend that if you have the opportunity to practice rafting, you should always do it with professionals to avoid problems.
Finally, I also recommend visiting Costa Rica, since it is a country as the Costa Ricans say "Pura Vida".
The photos were taken by the rafting organizers from a boat that accompanied us.

Hola, compañeros y amigos de #Hive. Estoy encantado de realizar mi primera publicación y que no será la última en esta comunidad de Proof of Brain. Quería resaltar que desde mi reciente incorporación a Hive he leído muy buenos post en esta comunidad de PoB.
Primera idea
Cuando he visto hoy que teníais un concurso (#pobphotocontest) relacionado con el color blanco, las primeras ideas que fluyeron por mi cerebro fueron demasiado obvias (leche de vaca, nubes, nieve, la casa blanca, la ópera de Sídney, etc.)
Pensando un poco
Con un poco de reflexión quise ir un poco más allá y comencé en pensar en objetos o materiales que pueden cambiar de color mediante algún tipo de estímulo como la temperatura, la presión y fue entonces cuando se me encendió la bombilla y pensé que el agua que es incolora cuando se agita con violencia cambia su color de incoloro a blanco.
Acercándome a la idea final
En unos primeros instantes pensé que una buena foto serian las olas del mar golpeando contra un acantilado de forma que las espumas generadas son de color blanco. Sin embargo, en este tipo de fotografías se suele ver muchas tonalidades azules del agua y también marrones de las rocas contra las que golpea el agua.
Idea brillante
Pocos minutos después fue cuando recordé las fotos que tengo guardadas en mi Facebook de un viaje de negocios que realice en el año 2012 a Costa Rica.
En dicho viaje, como sorpresa final, mis amigos de Costa Rica me habían reservado una ruta de más de 50 km por el río Pacuare para practicar rafting. En un primer lugar pensé que sería una locura, nunca había practicado rafting y al día siguiente tenía que volar de regreso a España. Superado el miedo inicial, el monitor que era un chico muy agradable de Paraguay, nos indicó que los días anteriores había llovido mucho y que nos encontraríamos con un río de dificultad 4 sobre 5 y con muchos remolinos de dificultad 5. En ese momento, la adrenalina de los primeros remolinos supero al miedo inicial y como se puede observar en las imágenes yo disfrute de la experiencia como un niño pequeño. Tras esta experiencia, siempre intento en mis periodos de vacaciones poder realizar alguna actividad de rafting. Pero tengo que confesar que la primera vez como en otras actividades de la vida fue especial.
De cara al concurso les dejo unas imágenes ilustrativas de como lo que es incoloro puede convertirse en blanco y cubrir prácticamente la totalidad de la fotografía.
Sin dudarlo un momento, le recomiendo a todo el mundo, que si tiene la oportunidad de poder practicar rafting lo haga pero siempre acompañado de profesionales para evitar un problema.
Finalmente, también recomiendo visitar Costa Rica, ya que es un país como dicen los costarricenses "Pura Vida".
Las fotos fueron tomadas por los organizadores del rafting desde una lancha que nos acompañaba.

Looks like you had a lot of fun in Costa Rica! I like the part where you describe your process of choosing a picture. Good luck in the contest!
Thank you very much @fiatgirl
It was a work trip that culminated in a great experience.
I also had fun thinking about which photo to use and the ongoing process of changes in my brain to arrive at the choice.
Welcome to the #POBPhotocontest!
Very creative submission! I really like the white foam on the wild water.
Rafting is so cool! I've done it myself once too. What a nice experience!
Thanks for the comment @friendlymoose
I practiced it for the first time in Costa Rica and without a doubt a great experience.
