Backpacking Photography Tips
As I look up the skies, the clouds start to build up. I waited minutes until a low cloud were in the left and another one in front of the mountain.
Backpacking doesn’t really mean I’m get away from the crowds; I want to see unique surroundings that one cannot find near the road.
Backpacking is quite a challenge; you need to have the appropriate equipment, essentials food and shelter.
There are two types of backpacking, first is you can set up a base camp and then hike without bringing all the equipment. Second method is to do a different part each day. In some other country camping is only permitted selected areas and some areas have quotas.
Here is some Backpacking Equipment
Normally I bring this equipment a sleeping bag, placed in the bottom of your bag and here is a technique on how to arrange your belongings. Light objects are placed in the bottom and top of your pack, heaviest on the center.
Tent: good for 2 persons. This is enough for you and your equipments inside the tent.
Sleeping bag: with ground cloth at the bottom to protect from sharp objects
Sleeping pad: Choose the 3/4 length
Jacket: Wind resistance and waterproof
Underwear: top and bottom
Pants: not the jeans because of its weigh. Exercise tights or lightweight shelled pants
Shirt: Use long-sleeve silkweight and not the cotton t-shirts
Stove
Mess kit
Water filter: one used by the US Marine
Food: fast-cooking foods such as parboiled rice, mashed potatoes, etc. I often eat high-calorie cookies for my snacks
Lighting: Bring the single aluminum candle lantern and a double A flashlight
Mosquito repellent
Photography Equipment you need the following:
Now figure the photo equipment. To select the correct equipment, you need to know what to expect to shoot. If you're going to pack up to the high mountains, expect panoramas. If you expect to shoot flowers, you might opt for a View Camera. Here's the equipment I've brought on four trips over the past month.
Lens: Normally a Wide Angle and Normal Lens will be enough. Other stuff includes filters and Light Meter
Tripod (check my previous article about handling and choosing the tripod)
Camera Batteries
If you see something excellent scene for photography, then shoot it, rather than saving it at the end of your trip, because on your way home you will be thinking on having a shower, and eating a your meal
