Embalse San Rafael — photo spot in La Calera, Cundinamarca, Colombia
Embalse San Rafael
A highland reservoir framed by Andean ridges — excellent for mirror-like reflections, low-lying mist, and dramatic cloudscapes. Close to La Calera and a short drive from Bogotá, the dam and shoreline offer varied vantage points; accessible by car with informal parking. Best at sunrise and sunset for warm side-light and glassy water; mornings often bring mist and fewer visitors. No special permits for shoreline shooting, but respect private property and local fishermen.
