The biggest reason for going to the USA is my daughter who has been an exchange year student living in a host family in Iowa. The host family is such lovely people, that we all feel we have a new family in the USA. Now my wife and I are looking forward to visiting our new family and friends. So we are going to live some days in Iowa, and then we fly to Las Vegas to visit the Grand Canyon. It has always been a dream for me to be there, but I had never thought I should go there. <img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"2725\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/elibragerphotography.com\/nb\/usa-2019-planning-the-trip\/arizona-location-on-the-us-map\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/elibragerphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/arizona-location-on-the-us-map.jpg?fit=2000%2C1906&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"2000,1906\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;Ontheworldmap.com&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"arizona-location-on-the-us-map\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/elibragerphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/arizona-location-on-the-us-map.jpg?fit=1024%2C976&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"wp-image-2725 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/elibragerphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/arizona-location-on-the-us-map.jpg?resize=289%2C276&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"arizona-location-on-the-us-map\" width=\"289\" height=\"276\" \/>Now we have our chance to do it. So when we have stayed in the Grand Canyon district some days we will go back to Las Vegas for one night, then we go to Los Angeles, rent a car and drive by the sea to San Fransisco. In San Fransisco, we will stay some nights before we fly home to Norway.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Photographic equipment<\/h2>\n<p>So, what do I have with me of photographic equipment?<br \/>\nIt\u00b4s a mere to know what is the best, but my experience is that my Nikon D7100, with Nikkor 18-200mm always is a useful tool for good pictures. <img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"2726\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/elibragerphotography.com\/nb\/usa-2019-planning-the-trip\/img_1901\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/elibragerphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/img_1901.jpeg?fit=1536%2C2048&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1536,2048\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;1.8&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;iPhone 7 Plus&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1553890153&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;3.99&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;125&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.25&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;latitude&quot;:&quot;59.994444444444&quot;,&quot;longitude&quot;:&quot;10.907583333333&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"IMG_1901\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/elibragerphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/img_1901.jpeg?fit=768%2C1024&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2726\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/elibragerphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/img_1901.jpeg?resize=1290%2C1720&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"IMG_1901\" width=\"1290\" height=\"1720\" \/>It is a must.

I think I will use both cameras for landscape dependent on the weather conditions, and the light. For Nikon, I also have graduated filter with me. If the conditions are light sky and dark foreground, it perhaps will help me to smooth out the unevenness of the lighting conditions. And my iPhone is always in my pocket, and it is a handy tool. So, in reality, I have three cameras with me, and my wife has one.<\/p>\n<p>For the weather conditions, we have warm clothes, because the temperature in Iowa is nearly like the temperature in Norway. But in Arizona, Nevada, and California I think the heat in April is like a Norwegian summer. So summer clothes are also necessary.<\/p>\n<p>I am so excited to go on this trip.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This year we have decided to visit the USA.

Through my lens, I seek more than just images. I seek presence. I believe photography is not only about what we see, but how we see \u2014 how we meet the world with open eyes and a quiet mind. For me, photography is a way of listening. A form of mindfulness. A practice of stillness and wonder. I\u2019m also a globetrotter at heart. I love traveling and discovering new places with my camera \u2013 from quiet corners of nature to vibrant city streets. My blog reflects this love for exploring, with stories and photographs gathered along the way. Each journey deepens my appreciation for light, texture, and the way places speak if we take the time to listen. I photograph with both DSLR and iPhone, always guided by what moves me rather than by gear or trends. I created this space to share moments that speak, not shout. Images that invite you to pause. To feel. To breathe. Whether you\u2019re a fellow photographer or someone simply seeking calm in a noisy world, I hope you\u2019ll find something here that resonates. When I\u2019m not behind the camera, I write about mindful photography, run a Norwegian photo community called Se Utover, and create courses that combine creativity, presence, and personal growth. Thank you for visiting. I\u2019m so glad you\u2019re here.\",\"sameAs\":[\"http:\\\/\\\/elibragerphotography.com\",\"https:\\\/\\\/www.facebook.com\\\/EliBragerPhotography\",\"https:\\\/\\\/www.instagram.com\\\/elibrager\",\"https:\\\/\\\/www.youtube.com\\\/@bragerfoto9838\"],\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/elibragerphotography.com\\\/nb\\\/author\\\/elibrager\\\/\"}]}<\/script>\n<!-- \/ Yoast SEO plugin. -->","yoast_head_json":{"title":"USA 2019 planning the trip - Eli Brager Photography","robots":{"index":"index","follow":"follow","max-snippet":"max-snippet:-1","max-image-preview":"max-image-preview:large","max-video-preview":"max-video-preview:-1"},"canonical":"https:\/\/elibragerphotography.com\/nb\/usa-2019-planning-the-trip\/","og_locale":"nb_NO","og_type":"article","og_title":"USA 2019 planning the trip - Eli Brager Photography","og_description":"This year we have decided to visit the USA.

Through my lens, I seek more than just images. I seek presence. I believe photography is not only about what we see, but how we see \u2014 how we meet the world with open eyes and a quiet mind. For me, photography is a way of listening. A form of mindfulness. A practice of stillness and wonder. I\u2019m also a globetrotter at heart. I love traveling and discovering new places with my camera \u2013 from quiet corners of nature to vibrant city streets. My blog reflects this love for exploring, with stories and photographs gathered along the way. Each journey deepens my appreciation for light, texture, and the way places speak if we take the time to listen. I photograph with both DSLR and iPhone, always guided by what moves me rather than by gear or trends. I created this space to share moments that speak, not shout. Images that invite you to pause. To feel. To breathe. Whether you\u2019re a fellow photographer or someone simply seeking calm in a noisy world, I hope you\u2019ll find something here that resonates. When I\u2019m not behind the camera, I write about mindful photography, run a Norwegian photo community called Se Utover, and create courses that combine creativity, presence, and personal growth. Thank you for visiting. I\u2019m so glad you\u2019re here.","sameAs":["http:\/\/elibragerphotography.com","https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/EliBragerPhotography","https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/elibrager","https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@bragerfoto9838"],"url":"https:\/\/elibragerphotography.com\/nb\/author\/elibrager\/"}]}},"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p29FsT-HU","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/elibragerphotography.com\/nb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2722","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/elibragerphotography.com\/nb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/elibragerphotography.com\/nb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/elibragerphotography.com\/nb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8754777"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/elibragerphotography.com\/nb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2722"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/elibragerphotography.com\/nb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2722\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4864,"href":"https:\/\/elibragerphotography.com\/nb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2722\/revisions\/4864"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/elibragerphotography.com\/nb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2722"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/elibragerphotography.com\/nb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2722"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/elibragerphotography.com\/nb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2722"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
