When you have a genuine love for travel photography, it shows in every image you capture. If you’re anything like me, you probably have huge collections of beautiful moments with family and friends and thousands of photos of landscapes, cities and wildlife from your travels. If you want to really ignite your passion for photography, then taking your camera and equipment overseas is an absolute must and you can discover the latest in medium format cameras here. We’re founded up five destinations that are perfect for travel photography and are some of our favourites.
Iceland
Think of Iceland and the first thing that probably springs to mind is freezing temperatures and an abundance of snow. In reality, Iceland is a haven for travel photographers! Iceland is a magical landscape with breathtaking mountain ranges, black sand beaches, active volcanoes, spectacular waterfalls, glaciers and plenty of wildlife opportunities. If you really want to put your photography skills to the test then try to capture the elusive Northern Lights as they fill the sky with breathtaking colours between September and March. I’m sure you will end up like us, with multiple SD cards full of incredible shots!
London
In London you are surrounded by stunning architecture, from Westminster to St Paul’s Cathedral and even more modern pieces such as the Shard or the Gherkin. London also has natural beauty in all of its beautiful parks and the best way to explore this beautiful city is on foot. London also looks great at night, especially when everything is illuminated and sparkling in the (seemingly endless) rain.
