Today I'm joined by freelance travel and nature photographer Ignacio Palacios who has travelled 92 countries across his 23 year career, and whose images have earned over 100 photography awards in that time, including being awarded the status of Master of Photography with 1 gold bar with the Australian Institute of Professional Photography.
In this episode we talk about what Ignacio has been up to as a travel photographer in worldwide lockdown and how he's stayed productive, how he researches and plans trips to get the most out of every opportunity, and how to look beyond the typical Iconic landscape scenes to capture something more intimate and intriguing, plus lots more that should ignite the travel bug in you ready for when the world gets back to something resembling normal!
