Creator's Key Takeaways

the idea here is to well everyone travels with a camera and it doesn't matter what kind of camera you arrive with

it's about having the interest and the desire not only to travel because travel and photography goes go together but to be inquisitive to learn and to have patience

the South Pacific's very exciting we had the Explorer there um I think it was back in 2008 2009 so it's very exciting to get to get um uh back into these geographies

Creator's Tips & Advice

Use a monopod for camera stabilization and patience
Shoot at about 1/1000 second shutter speed on a moving platform
Protect your gear with a backpack and rain cover during wet landings
