My wife and I just returned from a week long Mission Trip in Jamaica. Together with other members from our Church, we all went down to visit, help out and worship with a Church in Jamaica. Most days were filled with building a swing set, doing maintenance work on the building, harvesting moringa tree’s or spending time with the local children. Being that I was designated the ‘photo guy’ by our team members, I had my camera on me the whole time to document the trip for our Church. With what little free time I had, along with a free day at the end of the week, I managed to sneak in some creative photography for myself. It was an eye opening trip and my wife and I can’t wait to go back.
On a side note, I packed very light and only took my X-E1 and 18-55mm lens with me. All shots were processed in Lightroom on my Windows 8 tablet. The combination was perfect for shooting and processing on the go. The bag I used was the Thinktank Turnstyle 10 and even when fully loaded, it never weighed me down. See my other post for more details on my travel kit.
