By travel photography, I mean photography that includes an element of travel, ranging from a day trip a few hours away from home, to a week long trip hundreds of miles away from home, or an airplane trip to a different country. Such photography (different from studio work or commercial work), requires attention to many aspects. Planning the trip, packing the right gear, using the right image capture methods and post-processing them once you are back, all require attention. Almost all of my photography over the last fifteen years, has been travel photography. It includes landscape, wildlife, street and night photography. Consequently, the ideas that I present here will include all these types of travel photography.I have been studying and practicing serious photography for over fifteen years. In this book, I present the very best practical ideas (so far) that I have stumbled upon or learned from others. It is most suited for beginners or intermediate students who are looking to take better travel photographs. If your idea of travel photography is using your cell phone or point-n-shoot camera to speedily snap record shots of the places you've visited, this book is not for you. This is intended for the serious, whose goal is to produce quality photographs worthy of fine art prints, or online/print publication.I have organized the travel photography tips in this book, into these sections:- Before you go- Packing your camera bag- Aerial photography from your airplane- Once you are there- Light- Exposure- Focus- Camera Position- Composition- Post Production- Questions from Followers- My Concluding Message to youThese sections are ordered roughly to reflect the order in which actions are taken. Therefore, if you read them from the beginning to the end, it works. This approach will serve you well, if you are looking for a broad improvement in your travel photography.However, in general, no particular tip in this book is strictly dependent on something covered prior to that. You are therefore free to jump to any section and pick tips.
