Back when I first started taking photographs, I didn’t really think about the sun when framing my shots. I soon realized that the sun means EVERYTHING! You need to work with the sun in order to get just the right lighting. With your back facing the sun, the subject of your photo will show up clearly in the natural lighting. If you take a picture at noon, that’ll look much harsher than a photo taken at the beginning or end of the day as the sun is directly overhead. I’ve had so many photos from my early trips where I can barely see anything, due to the time of day and my positioning.
Great post – very useful. Thanks!
Such great tips, I will have to remember these for my next vacation.
These are great things to remember. The sun makes all the difference, but I’ve never thought to plan an outing around how the sun will affect the pictures.
A portable charger is a great idea! I never think of things like that but they’re so handy
I love photography but I’ve never really gotten into travel photography. I’d love to be able to travel enough to get into it.
portable charger is a great idea! The worst is running out of battery when you are out and about!
Photography when you travel is important, it’s one of the things that will help you seize the moment and capture a memory! This are great tips and I hope those who are travelling for the first time get to see this.
Taking photos is important in any trip regardless if you’re a photographer or not. I think these are great tips!
