General Travel Photography Tips

Here are some tips for general travel photography.

• Always carry-on your camera equipment. Never check it. Keep your film in clear ziplock bags for easy hand-searching.
• The postcard trick: Buy a whole bunch of stamps at the airport when you arrive. Bring a page of labels with preprinted addresses - yours. As you move from place to place, mail yourself postcards with notes on where you were, the date, etc. This information can jog your memory and keep track of your pictures taken.
• Keep your lodging costs down by hosteling and camping.
• Bring several plastic bags and ziplocks to protect your equipment from bad weather.
