Few things can capture the look and feel of a location better than a quality photograph. The best part about travel photography is that anyone can be successful as long as they keep a few things in mind.
Before the camera even comes out of your bag, it's best to start by considering what it was that brought you to the specific location in the first place. Whether it's the natural environment, the people, the culture, or urban landscapes, identifying the things that interest you can help you narrow your focus and plan what to shoot. Don't forget to do some research to learn about interesting aspects of the location that you may have overlooked.
Another thing to remember is that great travel photography often results from a little serendipity. Ensuring that you are at the right place at the right time requires that you keep your eyes open and put in a little work. Getting up early and staying out late will not only enrich your experience, but it will also give you more opportunities to look for photographs. Be sure to keep safety in mind, but don't be afraid to wander away from busy areas to find interesting subjects. Finally, always be ready to take your shot, because you never know when the chance for a great photo will present itself.
