Every traveller brings a camera along with them. Don’t they?
We’re presenting our favourite four tips for photographing on the road. We’re starting simple … nothing earth-shattering, but some good practical advice that might ensure your world-wide travels get recorded with the love they deserve.
We also play devil’s advocate in a little perspective piece considering the type of traveller you want to be – take what you will from it.
Want to get involved with the site? We’ve got a flickr group for your (now excellent!) photos, a facebook group for those that need to feed their addiction and also a newsletter which you can sign up for on the homepage.

I agree with Linda that you can’t have a camera all the time. I have a DSLR and it is just too heavy and big to carry around all the time. It is also too obnixious sometimes to pull out and take photos.
However, when you are taking photos, I agree with Craig. Go nuts. Digital is free. You can always delete your mistakes. Get as much memory as you can afford and just download your photos each day. I will often take well over 100 photos a day and only find a handful good enough to put up on Flickr.
