How Do You Tell a Travel Story Without Photos?
Hello, I was there and here and there, let me tell you about it!
Does your writing or your photos do justice to your travel experience?
All of us who write travel stories are writing from memory. We have already experienced some exciting, wonderful, new and unique place for us, making us want to tell the story to others.
We tell those stories and add the accompanying photos we took (or someone else on the trip took) to demonstrate what we experienced no matter how crappy the photos. We are proud to share those photos with the story to justify our travel experience.
Crappy Cameras to Hi-Res Digital Images
In the days before cell phones and social media, people used good old fashioned cameras. Some still do, only much more modern versions.
I have used both 35mm interchangeable lens cameras and digital cameras. In the really *old* days I’ve even used disposable cameras — throwaways that relied on 110 film in a cardboard box. The film had to be processed externally at a camera store or film processing outlet like Fotomat. (now defunct)
