Traveling is a memorable experience, and we do everything we can to capture the essence of a place, a city, or even a restaurant. Photography is the best way to do this, and getting the best pictures possible is the first step in taking home beautiful cherished memories. When traveling, leave behind all of those cliché photo skills you learned from your mom. Use these to snap the best and highest quality photos possible! Don’t let a single memory or significant event pass you by! Capture all of the beauty of the world, and you might be surprised with what you get in the end!
1. Always use the correct camera setting. You don’t need an SLR camera to take a high quality image. Just use the right setting for your environment, and click away! It is especially important to use flash and macro settings when they are called for. Don’t use flash in an already bright environment, it can ruin the image!
2. Take multiple pictures of the same scene. If you snap 5-10 of the same thing from varying angles, you are sure to get a perfect picture in the bunch somewhere!
3. Always use a full height tripod or a mini tripod when you want to take a picture of something particularly striking. This is great for landscapes and monument photography, but not good for quick snap shots of people or the world around you.
4. Take pictures of everything! You will regret it if you don’t, so take snap shots of everything you pass by even if it seems insignificant. You will be surprised once you get home!
5. Don’t be afraid to use the video function on your camera. Sometimes the best memories are to be had from videos. Take a video of the crowds around a museum, or take videos of yourself in a specific area. Have fun!
6. Try different angles for certain images. It’s interesting to see the world how you really see it, so don’t stick to one humdrum boring angle.
7. Read up on photo composition. Learning how to artistically compose your photos can make your travel pictures that much more elegant.
8. You don’t have to ask people for permission to take their photo, but you might want to as a common courtesy. Especially if you plan on taking an artistic shot, just ask!
9. Make sure you have plenty of memory space. It’s not fun to take pictures then run out of space on your memory card! It doesn’t hurt to have multiple for back up, just in case.
10. The most important part of travel photography, is to always have a back up battery! Most cameras use lithium ion batteries, so it doesn’t hurt to have multiple charged ones on hand if you going to be out for the majority of the day!

#8 is a dangerous generalisation. In most western countries, you don’t need explicit permission to photograph people IN PUBLIC but taking photos of anyone associated with security, anyone inside a building and numerous other circumstances could cause some issues. It is better to use judgement and asking permission is a common courtesy that should be extended in a number of situations.
