Fast Five Travel Tips: Vacation Photos

1. Take your camera everywhere. Even if it's not your "good camera" have a compact camera, or your iphone with you at all times on vacation. Some of the best moments are those ones that happen spontaneously.

2. Take the wide shot, plus take the close up.

3. You don't always have to have smiling faces to set the mood and capture the spectacular moment.

4. Let the kids have a try. Photos from the child's perspective are amazing. Let THEM show you how they see the vacation (even if it is at knee height!).

5. Print them. Whether it's in a photo book, 4 x 6's or on canvas, do print them. It's wonderful to share them on Facebook and e-mail them to friends, but IMHO you can never replace the print. Technology is a fickle beast. Lose your data once and you could lose those photos forever.
