Hey Mellita, I have stayed in couple of hostels and beleive me yes it's all safe and also hygienic ... Go on reviews before you book any zostel ... But they are more known and best in the hostel business ... about safety they are safe for sure ... The best would be read all reviews ... share the hostel name which you are booking here on Tripoto forum .. so that you will get the perfect answers and you can go ahead with that ..... Happy Travelling !!!
Hello Mellita, Zostel is a great option for travellers, especially women. It offers an option where you can share a dorm with women which I have found very useful during my travels. The rates are always reasonable and it is very safe. I have never faced any hygiene or safety issue. Hope this helps. And happy travel.

Use some mobile lenses from moment it helps you to get a sharp image and you can zoom as well also shoot in raw most of the phone support raw images. I am launching my channel about photo editing and travel food lifestyle so checkout the link and subscribe to our journey. https://m.youtube.com/channel/UCxRAJ3SybfJykboIfOQEA5w
I am still working, I feel when you're in a learning phase you can do that while pursuing your job as well. I would say do photography every weekend, and whenever possible after 2 months or so go out n travel to such places where you can get good photographs. you will feel good dn.
Harsh, earning isn't everywhere. By featuring your work in the magazine may give you some amount but not feature accounts.
you can mail the editorials your work, reach out to them on social media and show them your work. Do it only if you think you have such strong portfolio.
I would suggest you to take some job if you are done with your graduation, and come out of your comfort zone, shoot every weekend, weekdays whenever get time.
plan for travel/festivals/fairs of India, go out n shoot.
Practice and learn editing by practice. you will do good. give 1-2 years atleast
If you're into wedding, and you know how to click good wedding pictures dn you dont need a job. Wedding photography is good profession for earning as well.
Abdul, try to be more creative with your work. You need to think hatke to get good fame, there are lakhs of photographers in or around India and one needs to have really special talent (it can be photography talent, marketing talent) he/she can achieve it easily. you need to take some 1-2 years and convince your parents.
Try really hard or do a job n do photography side by side.
Hi Abdul , you can take a look at 500px.com. This is a photography community where you can learn and also sell your contents. Its also a great place to collaborate with other photographers and yes its free too
Divyanshu, everyone should have one mentor, look around probably some of your problem is doing good work and you can go out with him and shoot, may be you can make your whole gang who go out n shoot every week, it is important to be in the group. You will feel always good when you're shooting in a group dn when shooting alone.
Abhinav, there are no such one place for contests, you need to follow such pages on social media so that you get to know when they have any, Tripoto conduct many such contests. For international contests you can google it and you will get the details of all the international contests
Passion. Once you have passion inside you for something it is easier to do what you like and for managing time you have to manage it, there's no solid solution for it, everyone manages their time and does what they have to. In the beginning for few days you have push yourself to go out and shoot but gradually it will become a natural habit. Understand each concept and experiment accordingly, go shoot! and follow great photographers to stay inspired.
I learnt photography because I used to enjoy it.
I use to go out almost every day when I started photography. Everyday I used to carry two bags, laptop and camera.
I used to shoot 6-8 am in the morning, leave for the office n reach by 9 am.
at 6-7 pm I used to get back to home and start editing pictures.
Rupam, By interacting with people, personalisation, commenting on their posts on Instagram will give you more growth and reach.
you can sell images on iStock, Getty, Alarmy, shutterstock on these platforms.
It depends on your budget, I would suggest buy a crop sensor if it is your first camera, if you have crop already dn buy full frame (Nikon D750) Lens you can take good travel photos with kit lens 24-120 as well, you can buy 50mm, 70-200mm in future whenever it is in the budget.
Midhun, I take my own photography tours, I sell my pictures online, I do commercial shoots as well. I started shooting weddings in 2013, my first project and when i got a good experience I started doing all commercial shoots.
Always shoot in RAW and Manual mode, learn how to expose a picture, composition you will learn with experience. but once you know the light condition and you know how to expose picture you will always get a good picture.
