How to take beautiful photos of local residents during travels. Every country in the world has its own characteristics. If you identify them correctly and take pictures, you will get the original photos. It is very good to have photo album after abroad travel with no separate photos on different themes, but with the whole collection on the same topic, for example, local food, local residents, amazing plants, and others. In this article I want to share my thoughts and tips about how to bring from travels beautiful photos of local residents. First, photograph a lot of people. To convey the color of the country, do as many possible portraits of different people, men, women, adolescents and children. Also you can choose a specific topic of portrait, but it should also reflect the uniqueness of this country. You can devote all of your pictures, for example, Colombian women, Italian men, African children, the rich or the poor of India.

With these portraits you will eventually be able to make a photo books or great collage, showing the different faces of people of the country in which you have visited. Second, stick to natural. Staged shots can look beautiful, but a certain authenticity and credibility will be missing. Often, looking at photos of people in traditional costumes, you have a feeling of unnaturalness, as its not their casual wear but costumes that are dressed specifically to attract the attention of tourists. Take a picture of a man, engaged in their daily business: at work, on the market, houses, etc. Use a hidden camera. Keep your camera ready to make a spontaneous shot.

The person will look more natural and relaxed in the photo when he does not expect that he will be photographed. Finally, photographing local people, you should remember that not everyone is fond of that. Sometimes people are annoyed by the camera aimed at them. In this case, you should not do it against their will. When taking pictures of people in the context of their country, you can use many different techniques, but do not forget the most important - about respect to the object of shooting.
