You found the most amazing photo spot during sunset and want to take as many nice pics as possible, but after a while you can`t do any more poses. You would love to continue, but you simply run out of ideas... So how about taking a look at the things you have with you.
Maybe there is some kind of scarf or cloth that you use to cover your shoulders when entering a church or cathedral. Well, you can easily make it one of the best photo accessories.
Especially when there is a little wind or you make some kind of a movement, like a turn or fast walking, such a decorational item can have a great impact on your pics!
My advice: Maybe before you go on your next holiday, practice a little in front of your mirror at home to make sure you know how to use it in a nice looking way ;)
Another accessory you will probably have with you on pretty much every trip are your sunglasses. Obviously you can use the normal ways of wearing it, in your face, sitting on your head making sure your hair looks nicely and hanging it in the front of your top with its frame.
But obviously there are much more creative ways to use it, as you can see in my photo right here. By the way, also with your normal glasses you can do fantastic things! Also water drops on your glasses account for a wonderful effect and make your photos of a landscape or monument much more interesting.
When using glasses in your photo, you can either click on the glasses on your phone`s screen to make sure these are sharp while the background is blurred, or the other way round.
In case your sunglasses have a mirroring layer on the glasses, you can take a close up picture of the objects or people mirrored in the glasses in colourful shapes.
Lastly, I want to mention one more thing about your bag.
Obviously there is quite a number of beautiful bags that you can easily incorporate into your photos. However, I somehow always end up using my practical backpack or crossbody rather than any fashionable bag due to safety and usability reasons. So I normally try to give my things to some travel companion while pictures are taken from me, or in case I am at a relatively quiet and clear place, so that I can be sure they won`t be stolen, I simply put them on the ground in some corner.
For you this means thinking about your bag, and by the way also some coat or headphones you might be wearing, and taking them off if they don`t fit into the picture. However, always make sure your belongings are save from pickpockets!
