Cutting the Clutter for a Balanced Frame

Crowds clutter a frame. Not always, but often. When we shoot, our challenge is to keep the crowds out of the frame or ensure we balance the frame despite the crowds. With aesthetic sensibility and presence of mind, you can manage a good frame at most times. - Cutting the Clutter for a Balanced Frame - Travelure ©

Making a shot against the light

There are times during our travels we end up shooting against the light. Few such instances are a wrong-time-of-the-day visit to a landmark, music concerts, sunrises/sunsets, public functions or processions, etc. - Making a shot against the light - Travelure ©

Shooting Grand Ceilings – Cathedrals, Tombs, and Palaces

These ceilings pose a different challenge. The distance between the floor and ceiling is not large enough for normal lenses to capture the entire grand ceiling or the dome ceiling. Also, these structures are not well-lit. A camera shake blur could also be a concern. - Shooting Grand Ceilings - Cathedrals, Tombs, and Palaces - Travelure ©
