How NY Travel Photographer Captures Award Winning Photos

By Lonnie Hahne


Travel photography is a genre within the field of photography. Such a photo can show the landscape, culture and feelings of the people who live in a certain country or area. Those who take award-winning pictures often live in New York City, but spend much of their time on location. A NY Travel Photographer worthy of winning awards is sensitive to beauty, unusual aspects of a culture and experienced in taking advantage of the optimal lighting.

Outdoor photography is challenging due to the lighting conditions that may exist on any given day. There may be a deadline to meet and it may rain making that impossible. He or she must be ready to shoot one of those spontaneous moments in time that will rarely, if ever, happen again.

Professionals working in this genre have their work published in National Geographic. Practical ways to earn a steady income include leading photo tours for aspiring young photographers. They work for travel agencies to shoot the beauty of a sandy beach and the exterior appeal of a fine hotel.

Some other employment opportunities are for real estate agents and architects. Prizes are awarded for travel categories as well as photojournalism and spot news photography. There are a number of prestigious awards a top photographer can win.

A famous photo of the flag being raised on Iwo Jima won an award in 1945. It is a touching depiction of an historic event. A photographer working for the Boston Traveler took four famous shots from a plane flying over the ocean. The tragic scene below showed a ship as it sank beneath the waves. These shots were deserving of the awards given.

These award winners brought experience and artistic talent to where they snapped these photos. Each was a prime example of being in the right place at the right time. No second opportunity would be given. Their alert reaction and readiness helped win the prestigious awards for pictures that could never be taken again.
