Travel and Packing Tips for Outdoor Photographers

Episode 14:  In today’s Tidbit Tuesday, I share some tips and reminders on packing and traveling with your camera gear.   It can be tempting to pack everything to keep your options open, but bringing it all may be unnecessary and even impractical given your mode of transportation.  

I share five questions that have helped me determine what gear is actually necessary to bring on a photography trip and to find that balance between what I *want* to bring and what I *need* to bring.  These tips will help you weigh the pros and cons of certain equipment and assess what trade-offs you’re willing to take given the nature of the trip.
