Our last <strong>Welshot</strong> adventure of <strong>2017</strong> was to the lovely City of Dubrovnik in October.<br />

We have been there before but couldn’t resist another visit. An amazing place for<br />

photography and known as a popular destination for many a scene of the successful<br />

series ‘The Game of Thrones’.<br />

Here is a selection of images taken in Dubrovnik by myself and fellow academy<br />

members and a few tips and hints on how to capture something a little different.<br />

Discovering DUBROVNIK<br />

What’s in my camera bag for travel<br />

Olympus Pen F camera body. Small, light and great image quality.<br />

14-42 ez pancake lens for general photographs, 40-150mm<br />

lightweight zoom for those subjects we want closer. A couple of<br />

faster primes, normally a 17mm f1.8 and a 45mm f1.8. Both ideal<br />

for lower light or when I want a bit extra speed to stop the action<br />

as in Street images. Spare batteries, cable release and a lens pen<br />

to remove any dust or marks from lenses.<br />

Look for different angles to shoot from<br />

Don’t just take your images from eye level, try different angles.<br />

...<br />

Even go for a worm’s eye view from ground level. Tilting your<br />

camera can sometimes also work with the right image.<br />
