    Ep 255 : Travel and Photography

    We often travel with the goal to make images where the primary purpose of the travel is NOT photography. Deciding what to take, how you will carry it while travelling, and making the process successful is important. This episode, Gordon and Ross share practical guidance on these questions. What to photograph, when to do so and how to do so are topics for another time as before you make the first image, you have to be able to get there without pain or hassle.
