Question

Tell your partner about the main ideas in your article.

Answer

A

  • The best time to do it → early morning or late afternoon
  • Stories → people's eyes tell stories
  • The local culture → ask before photographing, take time to get to know the local culture, learn a few words of the language
  • Learning from professionals → spend time looking through big coffee-table books and magazines; watch for different uses of light, angle, line and texture

B

  • The best time to do it → it doesn't matter what time of day you write as long as you do it every day
  • Stories → look for stories, find something unusual that has happened, look for a beginning, a middle and an ending; or find an original angle
  • The local culture → interact with the local culture; talk to people, try the food, haggle in the markets
  • Learning from professionals → travel writers don't just see the normal things; they spot things most tourists don't see
