Things to do with your photographs
You can show your photos to your family and friends and even make them into postcards to send to your loved ones. If you have a travel blog you can use some of them to show your readers the stunning places you travelled to, or you could start one on your return.
You can also make money from selling your photographs to travel magazines, online sites as well as websites that offer stock photography such as http://www.dreamstime.com. They will offer you money for the photographs they choose, and the ones that they think will sell the best. This is a great way to fund more travelling and to share your stunning images with others.
Whether you are an amateur or professional photographer, taking beautiful and unique images when travelling can provide you with some stunning memories. They can also contribute to your travel blog, stock photography sites and can help you to start saving for your next adventure!
