Six Quick Travel Photo Tips from Tina Erdmann!

5. Take photos even when you think it may not be an ideal situation. For example, I was riding in a car from Nabingo to Nkokonjeru one evening during the golden hour. There was a beautiful soft yellow light cast over the road. I couldn’t ask the driver to stop along the way, so I started taking photos through the windshield. The windshield was grimy, and the dirt road was scattered with pot holes, so we were constantly bouncing in our seats, but there’s no way I was going to pass up photo opps with that kind of light. I used a wide aperture setting of f/2.8, blurring out the dust on the dirty windshield, creating a hazy look on the photo—which I love—and a fast shutter speed to compensate for the movement of the car. I could have easily made the excuse of poor conditions to not take photos, but I’m glad I didn’t! These are some of my favorite images.
