National Geographic Traveler Digital Photography Seminar/BOSTON

The Versatile Travel Photographer

Oct 10-Oct 10, 2010

Great travel photography requires a command of many types of photography – from close-up portraits and loose candids, to off-the-hip street photography at festivals and celebrations – from architecture and cityscapes, to landscapes and nature. Becoming versatile requires that you become like a one-man band, utilizing what technology has to offer while developing an eye for composition and a feel for being in the right place at the right time.

Join National Geographic Traveler photographers Ralph Lee Hopkins and Bob Krist as they share their secrets and insights into how to make travel photos that convey a powerful sense of place and capture rare moments. Learn simple tricks for using flash to expand when, where, and how you shoot, as well as collecting audio so you can produce multi-media slide shows of your work.

Get real-world advice to help make the most of your travels. Using a slide show/lecture format Ralph and Bob will show you how to add depth and “local color” to your images to make your travel photography zing!
