#TRAVELPICS the travel photography chat/share on Twitter
Monday we joined #TRAVELPICS chat on Twitter for a fun packed hour exchanging ideas and travel photos with like-minded posters. The theme was “texture” and participants shared their own travel pics about the theme and answered pre-arranged questions. Here are our replies.
Follow us on Twitter:
Q1: What are elements that add texture to make your travel photos stand out?
A1: @AntiTourist #travelpics Cloud sky waves color water rocks
buildings streets mountains are all elements that add texture #Mykonos #Greece #ttot
These first two images were captured during our 12-Night Mediterranean & Greek Isles Cruise
Q2: Whether it’s snow in a forest or tiles on a home, show us a travel photo
that’s all about texture.

Q3: Share a photo of yours that shows off texture in a unusual fashion:
shadows, birds, abstract patterns…
A3: #travelpics Glacier ice flowing in #Hubbard Bay #Alaska has
interesting patterns #ttot #cruise
Photography opportunities abound in Alaska. As our ship cruised through Hubbard Bay, we emerged from our balcony cabin to capture floating chunks of glacier ice like this.
Q4: Interesting people lead texture to photos, stories, & experiences.
Share a photo or tale of a bizarre or memorable encounter!

Q5: Specific or general, what’s something that has added texture to your
travels? Get creative!
A5: @AntiTourist #travelpics Add special effects in the digital
dark room to enhance your travel #photography http://bit.ly/1mOQjQY

The instructions were to be creative, so we dug into our archives and selected an image where we'd taken one of our photos and using a photo editor turned it into an entirely different image. Click on the link to learn more about how this and other examples shared in that post could become a part of your travel portfolio.
Q6: Textures add interest to landscapes near and far. From your backyard
to travels abroad, share a “colorful” photo!
A6: #travelpics Buildings &
Streets of #Bergen #Norway composed of many colors & textures #ttot

Our final example has a mixture of color and textures along with people to make a very appealing image. Bergen is one of our favorite ports in Norway. It can easily be explored on your own and there are plenty of photo spots to add to your enjoyment.
We only had an hour to share some of our #texture images. The time passes so quickly during the chat. Hunting through our archives to prepare for the chat brings back memories of our trips.
We hope that this has sparked your interest in taking your photography
to a new level. Follow the weekly #travelpics chat on Twitter for more
ideas on this and other travel topics. We'd love to hear your ideas as
well, or better yet, join us for the next chat.
