Travel Photographers You Have to See Don’t blink

Technology has undoubtedly done many wonderful things for us, but amongst the foremost of these must be the ease with which we can now bring art into our lives. Instagram is a treasure trove of stunning images, ranging from the realistic to the absurd, that put you within a click away from some extraordinary photography.
Here are some photographers you have to see if you aren’t already.

Joshi Daniel is a photo-artist from Kerala who takes some of the best street photography to come out of the south. If you’re in Mumbai and his name sounds familiar, that’s because he exhibited his fascinating images at the 2011 Kala Ghoda Arts Festival under the theme ‘Faces’.

To be honest, not a whole lot is known about this architecture photographer from India, other than the fact that he hails from Navi Mumbai. His photographs show us the city of Mumbai through a lens which sees it a little differently from most other people. It may not strictly be travel photography, but if you aren’t from Mumbai you just might learn a thing or two about the city.

The world-famous photographer from Brazil has travelled to over 120 countries for his projects. His work has been featured in numerous prestigious publications over the last few decades. To cap it all off, he has been a UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador since 2001. Salgado’s specialty lies in long-term projects, which almost always end up published as books featuring hundreds of images from around the world.

In case you can’t make sense of this surreal photo, that’s a local Vietnamese woman tending to handmade fishing nets. The way the nets hang around her gives the photograph its eerily beautiful quality. Wong burst onto world stage in 2012 and his work has been featured in exhibitions across the world since then.
