Health Safety in Photography


Photography - great profession and also a fascinating hobby. Nothing can be more gratifying than knowing that you have captured a passing, fleeting memorable moment and preserving its memories forever in pictures.
On the other hand, while photography is fun and fulfilling, photographers need to be aware of the health issues and risks associated with taking pictures. Especially in location photography, when you are out and about around different places, you need to be prepared with all health and safety issues what can occur. Or you taking pictures high in the mountains or practising skills in urban locations every place can be hazardous and came with own danger.
When I was taking photos by the cost I came across with lots of obstacles in my way. Splashing water - steep rocks and cliffs, you have to be very care full working location like this, it can not only damage your equipment but also lead you to some accident. Sometimes when you get carried on with some beauty of the scene is so easy not realise the danger. Also in city’s you had to be aware of people around you, upcoming traffic etc. Weather as well can bring different issues, so make yourself prepared with warm change of clothes, water and first aid kit when leaving house to fallow the road to the sunset. Looking after your equipment and take great care of yourself while taking stunning photographs.
