Whether
you’re aspiring, pro, or anything in between, the sailing community is ripe
with lots of photographers. We’re all shooting (so to speak) towards the same
goal -- capturing beautiful images of our cruising adventures so that
we can enjoy the memories for years to come (or perhaps sell them and add to
our cruising kitty, lol!).
Whether
it’s that mind-blowing sunset you never want to forget or a pod of dolphins
frolicking at your bow, having the most expensive gear isn’t really necessary
for top-notch photos, (some of my favorite photos have been taken on my iPhone and not my "big" camera), but knowing how to use the tools you have is!
 |
| ^^some of my all-time favorite photos are from my iPhone, believe it or not!^^ |
So,
tell me…what tips, tricks, or tools have you found most helpful? Do you have a
favorite cruising photo?
And
be sure to check out these great photo tips and favorite cruising photos from other
bloggers…
