I'm a big believer that practice makes perfect, but I'm not always disciplined enough to take photographs regularly. This isn't usually a problem for me as I do often use my camera, but, if you're one of those people who puts your camera away until just before that big day, or trip, this might be for you.

My challenge is for you to describe your local area in 12 photographs (or whatever works for you). Imagine yourself as an art director and you are producing a brochure to attract people to where you live. What photographs would you choose?

Think visual storyteller; think composition, viewpoint, lighting, shadow, colour, black and white.

What details do you walk past every day without noticing?

How observant are you?

Treat your local area in the same way that you would treat somewhere new, somewhere you've wanted to visit for a long time!

By building these skills, you'll be able to take much more interesting photographs when you travel.

In a previous podcast, I spoke about my preparations for my trip to Namibia in September.
EHRA does great work and they are one of the projects I support from sales of my photographic prints. I'm currently training for a 100km hike over 5 days to fund raise for their 25th anniversary.
If you're planning a big trip, what steps are you taking to make sure you're fit enough to enjoy it? Are you across all the admin?
This should act as a reminder!

If you'd like to find out more about EHRA and the 100km walk, you can do so here: Volunteer with Elephants in Namibia, Africa

Do you ever notice that people seem to vanish the moment you suggest showing them your latest photos?

Whether or not you do, these suggestions might help you to rethink your photography.

Think of three photographs that you love. What is it about them that makes them standout? Which elements are common between them?

This might be the use of colour, composition, the use of the foreground, background, or both. Whatever it is, jot it down and start incorporating those elements (and how they've been used) into your photography. See if you can get a different reaction!
