Travel Photography | Don’t Forget Self Portraits
© 2012 Wazari Wazir | Once Upon a Time in Istanbul I’m not a travel photographer but I’m a photographer who like to travel a lot. Normally as photographers, we often forget to put ourselves in front of the camera. Most of times I travel with my friends and most of them are also like to take pictures, so even though we travel together, our interest is not the same, I mean I maybe like certain places or angle and my friends like to go to some other places and we end up walking alone when we reach a certain location.

Kembara Fotografi | Istanbul Turkey

Travel Photography Tips | Have Some Patience
© 2012 Wazari Wazir | Blue Mosque at Istanbul Turkey “The two hardest tests on the spiritual road are the patience to wait for the right moment and the courage not to be disappointed with what we encounter.” – Paulo Coelho – Personally I think Patience is what separates a travel photographer from a tourist. Most tourist will be satisfied if they have taken a picture of themselves standing against a beautiful landmark of any places, they just don’t really bother about the background, along as they can get themselves and the landmark, mosque, building, temple in the frame, I think most of them will be satisfied.
