We all want our most cherished memories to last, to reminisce about them, and to keep walking down the same, sweet memory lane again and again. Photographing is one of the greatest ways to hold on to a sight, a feeling, or a place, and what better time is to take out your camera and start zooming than while traveling.

Here are some of the most useful tips to make the most out of your travel photos, without any fancy equipment and expensive gear:

Get there during off-peak hours:

This is an overall useful tip while traveling, but if you want to capture some amazing photographs of a famous tourist spot, it is best to visit the place during off-peak hours. You will hardly see a few people there, and so you can explore all angles and lightnings for capturing the perfect shot. Less people also means you get to explore the place fully relaxed and experience it better.

Get there early

Another way to get less crowds and better angles is to wake up early and reach the famous spots in the early hours of the morning. The light is better, you are fully energized from an early morning, and you can even catch the first Golden Hour of the day to have some amazing selfies for the ‘Gram. It is a win-win situation overall. Rising and reaching to places early also leaves you with ample time to explore the city in depth, and going to places unplanned for. And we all know that the best pictures and moments come from all things unplanned.

Stay out a little while longer

This is the exact opposite of the previous travel photography tip, but is equally important if you want to capture some amazing shots of the night sky, or the city life after dark. Depending on the place you have traveled to, allow yourself ample time after the crowds have subsided and only a handful of people are out there, savoring the night breeze. This is the perfect time to catch all the fleeting sunsets of the distant lands you have traveled to, and to fill up your camera roll and mind of the starry night. Capturing the night sky and stargazing requires even more late nights and slightly better equipment.
