How to return from a trip with better photos

Good travel photography is less about expensive equipment and more about preparation and observation.

Photograph a complete story

Capture wide views, medium scenes and close details. Together, they communicate more than one postcard image.

Return at a better time

Early morning and late afternoon often provide softer light and fewer people.

Include scale

A person or familiar object can show how large a landscape really is.

Review before leaving

Check focus, exposure and the frame edges while you can still take another shot.
