Ok I have a new travel/technique guide ready, for macro addicts visiting the american Southwest. Mods please check it out and if it looks good then please link or move it to the TG index and/or section, as appropriate. It is currently here in Themed Views.

Just noticed the Baltic Cruise link is out of date. The pdf article I originally wrote for David Kilpatrick's PhotoWorld magazine can be found here

Excellent idea, is this an ongoing project? Looks like the thread is a little dead, but I'd love to contribute!

Related feature-request: How about a Map (maybe a google map plug-in?) that people can plance themselves on. Then when any of us are traveling, we can see at a glance who we should talk to about spots to shoot, drink, or both! This week's Exhibition had a shot about 20 mins from where I live, and I would have joined the shooter if we had known.

Hey this was a thread I had not seen. As i keep saying Dyxum has so much of information. The last few months I have been travelling quite a bit across the forests and Jungles of India. I think as a responsible Dyxumer I should start a thread on India.

pdelay's is a very good guide. The "suggested route" bit has some excellent info for photogs. I haven't got much further yet. Are comments/questions not encouraged on these? Only additions? That may not be clear.

Seems this has died a bit. I'll try and add something about Kenya and parts of Botswana, Namibia and Tanzania... in due course, as they say.

@pdedley: I've moved your posting out to be its own thread and linked to the first page (normal members can't create threads in the meetings forum, but we can make a new thread from something you have posted) - you might want to edit the opening lines...

Swede66, could you draft a simple template we should aim to follow (flexibly of course) so there will be some reasonably common pattern in terms of effort & content? Something like your four or five suggestions of the most important subject headers, how many/few sample pictures to include (or not), a range of how few or how many words to aim for etc?


In my travel guide for Djerba - Tunisia I split the guide in my own experiences and important things to think about. Maybe it was too extensive but I think I covered the most important stuff, and some more
