• Travel photography doesn’t mean you have a geared DSLR camera. You can do it actually with a smartphone. The scenario is what creates the story of the image not the device used to take the photo.

  Fortunately, there is an app called VSCO Cam which is an photo-editing application that can enhance the quality of your travel photos.

  Users are fond of using VSCO Cam as their editing application because of its flexibility and its filters that gives that old film feeling and it doesn’t leave the shot look over-processed that made it stand out against other competing photo editing apps.

  Here are some custom filters made by Filtertime that you can use to achieve a better quality of your photos:

  Enhances the blue hues of the picture. (L) Gives a retro-ish hue of blue; (R) A vibrant hue of blue, while adding a little cool effect on the picture.

  

  Makes the pink element stand out in your photos. (L) Filter gives a de-saturated color good for underlit photos. (R) Adds a fading effect to the photo but still manages the to make the color pink standout.

  

  The filter on the (L) enhances the yellow element and gives a warm color; The filter on the (R)  provides a de-saturating effect with minimalistic brown tones.

  

  You may use this filter to achieve a retro-ish or vintage film effect. The photo on the left gives a more faded effect while the other adds a glossy coat on the picture.

  

  You don’t need to be a professional photographer to be able to take good quality photos, just draw your smartphone out of your pocket, start snapping photos and process it with  VSCO Cam.
