Karlo Samson on travel photography;

There's nothing quite like the thrill of stepping into new territory, be it a different country, another continent or even that newly opened park down the road. What's it like to bathe in the waterfalls of Kyoto? How warm and welcoming are the people of Finland? What does a balut taste like? Travel takes your curiosity and fuels it with grand scenes and mundane vignettes, unforgettable vistas and quaint stories, captivating characters and luminous landscapes. That thrill and fascination travel brings is precisely what you want to capture when you take your camera with you. It's called a sense of place, that elusive quality you work hard to capture in a photo which transport you back to where you were when you pressed the shutter.
