- Use your enforced rest to clear out those SD cards and laptops crammed full of JPEGs and RAW files, keep only the best and tweak them to look more professional
- Reminisce over your favourite past adventures and learn some lessons on getting better quality shots next time around
Are you making the best of your travel history? For once, we all have plenty of time on our hands to step back and consider it.
Many of us have had incredible experiences abroad and will have the photos – thousands of them – to prove it. But chances are your travel photography files are in a mess, so what better time to sort them out and enjoy reminiscing over your favourite past adventures while you do?
1. How to edit your travel photos
We all have too many travel photos. Whether you have got SD cards and laptops crammed full of JPEGs and RAW files, or they are all on your phone(s), there are probably way too many. So delete them – or at least most of them.
The process of going through a stash of travel photos and deciding which ones to keep is time-consuming, but worth the effort. Delete duplicates, but also get rid of cliché images. Instead keep photos that were taken from an unusual or unexpected angle.
