hi everyone.

i have this dream to become travel photographer. i love travel (local destination due to my financial). i found out that lots of local place and heritage has not been discover yet and if there is, not been advertise broadly. i wanted to travel, share the pictures and write few detail about the place.

so how to get attentions from local magazine, what to do and how to submit portfolios to these magazine?

Yes agreed and you have to summit your work to them until they accept your work

If you can shoot very well and you don't plan to give the pictures away for free I think they will be very happy to take your pics. But if you want to charge, that's totally a different story.

local newspaper what also feature wan la, they need content. not outstanding photos also can be featured, not the first time and the last one won't be any time soon.

you should try submitting to competition instead. I'm not referring to Pixoto thought.

try this http://maybankphotoawards.com There's the 'Culture and Heritage' category and 'Street photo' category that could suit your photos.

try to get ur name known for travel photo, maybe submit at local competition or quiz. This maybe your strating point.

After some publication of your photo on magazine or website, than you can try submit your work on travel magazine as they acknowledge you already
