Travelling, Technology and Photography - A blend which results in creating long lasting memories!

Have you ever wondered the relationship between Travelling and Technology?

Yes, Travelling and Technology is closely related for the present generation and for the upcoming generation. Most of the youth can easily afford a DSLR camera and a pair or two of lenses. Mere owning a DSLR won't make you an expert in Photography.

Travelling and Photography

The fad among the youth nowadays is to create a Facebook page on '<name of the person> Photography'; gain as many likes and comments even for the worst picture they post. Many young people have a perception these days that photography is easy and no specific training is required for the same. This is a mis-conception as photography can be perfected only through constant practice.

Try out clicking different pictures adjusting the aperture, ISO. Also use view finder to frame a picture in the camera before you click it. Experiment a lot on the camera by clicking same pictures (same frame) using different features to identify the difference in images. Interchanging the lens for different angle should be practised tooif you have a DSLR camera.

Different types of lenses

When we are travelling, most of us may use a mobile phone with high-end camera which is easily available in market these days. Even in mobile phone, use manual mode, try burst shots, landscape pictures, adjust aperture, shutter speed as these facilities are available in cameras of new smartphones.

 Technology, which is the future of the world, helps a traveller in many ways. Google Maps and Navigation helps in tracking/locating a particular place; A cliche sentence, but i am still mentioning it, With the help of social networking sites, we can share our location, photos, what we feel etc. Infact, we are surrounded by technology.

A traveller would love to view his/her favourite moments, landscapes and even funny incidents through the eyes of the camera. They would even share it to the entire world so that other people see what they are upto. A traveller should be really quick in capturing some unique moments. If you prefer exploring the world of wild animals, you have to be cautious at each and every moment of the animal and capture the perfect moment, preferably some action.

It may be the jump of a monkey from one tree to the other or it can be of two bisons fighting to mark their territory.

To get a perfect photograph, the lighting, the frame and many other aspects should match. This art can be perfected only through practice. If (travelling, technology and photography) these skills are acquired by you, you are ready to create long lasting memories. All the best!!!
