Photography on the road


Would you like to take portraits of interesting people in the street but they always look back at you menacingly?

Have you ever reached a wonderful monument and realized your camera battery was dead? Do your friends invent ridiculous excuses when you ask them if they would like to see your last vacation pictures?

This book will give you many useful tips on how to shoot amazing photos while traveling, avoiding the expected, plan everything in advance so you don’t miss the right moment, which in photography is always elusive, especially when visiting unfamiliar places, and come away with a fascinating reportage.
