|Issue 125
If you’re travelling but often disappointed by the photos you’re bringing back from your vacations, this article might help you to get better and more memorable photo souvenirs of your trip.

The good news is that you do not need to invest thousands of dollars in equipment. Too many people give credit to equipment, forgetting that technique and knowledge are far more important. Don't get me wrong, a good camera might help you get further technically, but this won't make you a better photographer.
In this article, I'll be sharing 12 tips that will help you get your photographs to the next level.
1. LEARN HOW TO USE YOUR CAMERA
Today's cameras are wonderful tools, however, too many people use them in full automatic mode. What is the point of doing this when your smartphone is likely to provide you with an equivalent or better result without the trouble of transferring pictures, editing them and so on.
Learning about your camera means learning how to use manual mode, learning everything about the functions and all the different modes. Knowing all this will help you navigate and adjust very quickly in all types of situations. This will feel cumbersome at first, and you won't learn everything overnight, but once you master it, you will be able to achieve more than you expect.
2. LEARN ABOUT COMPOSITION
Composition is the base of photography. How many times have you seen great locations where the photographs you took are not doing justice to the place? Working on your composition skill is one of the first thing you should target. This will immediately up your game and results will follow very quickly.
