Preparation And Talent Is 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 always a challenge because one can never be sure of the weather conditions he or she will have to work under. A deadline is sometimes impossible due to rain. When a special moment in time occurs, the photographer must be ready to capture it regardless of conditions. Such prize-winning moments happen only once and then the opportunity is gone.

These professionals are responsible for the emotions evoked in a National Geographic magazine article. As a practical way to earn their living, they lead photo tours for the people who are aspiring photographers. They supply the pictures for brochures of everything from the exterior of a hotel to the appeal of an exotic white sand beach.

Real estate agents and architects will take advantage of their talents to advertise homes for sale and architectural skills for hire. There are prizes awarded for photojournalism and spot news photography among others. These are some of the most prestigious awards a photographer can aspire to winning.

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.

Those individuals arrived prepared where those pictures were taken. Each went to the right place and arrived there at the right time. No second opportunity would be available. Artistry and spontaneous reaction resulted in the amazing photographs each took that brought them awards and lasting fame.
