Unless you are on assignment for National Geographic, chances are that other photographers have been to the same place you are going and have already scoped it out for you. 2.

People can help to show scale 4. While I don’t want a ton of people in most of my travel photos, sometimes it’s nice to have one or two to show the scale of the place. 5. I also like to get shots of a place just after the sun goes down. Tripod shot at dusk – 1/8 sec at f/4 6. 7. Try not to stick out of the crowd by wearing brightly colored clothing or carrying a giant camera bag.

Top 10 Digital Photography Tips Compose in Thirds To use the rule of thirds, imagine four lines, two lying horizontally across the image and two vertical creating nine even squares. Some images will look best with the focal point in the center square, but placing the subject off center will often create a more aesthetically composed photograph.

20 Captivating Photos Shot At Exactly The Right There are some things in life that make me feel dated (notice I didn’t use the word “old” LOL). For example, sending a fax, writing in cursive (with a pen) and talking on any phone with a cord (and twirling it around my fingers) are all things that kids born in 2011 might never have the opportunity to experience. I remember back in the days when people would say, “I wish I had my camera with me today, I could have taken some great pictures.” Now that practically everyone has a smartphone, we all have our cameras with us everywhere we go. That is evident in these photographs taken at exactly the right moment. The photography we see these days is phenomenal. Sometimes “at the right moment” photography is achieved with high-speed photography, and sometimes it is achieved from just being in the right place at the right time.
