What is the scope in travel photography after graduating in B.Com?

Current Scope a look at photographers and publications A look at the National Geographic Magazine, perhaps the most well-known travel publication with a very high focus on photography, confirms the generic nature of the term travel photography. The magazine and its rich archives of images is spread over a wide range of subjects that includes exploring different cultures, documenting diverse languages, understanding geography in depth by getting into its as aesthetics (landscapes) as well as geology, heritage combined with corresponding history, people and professions, and many more. The magazine attempts to cover the chosen topics in depth and the scope for photography is all-encompassing. Largely speaking, only thing that doesnt figure often is commercial forms of photography. Another key to explaining the current scope can be found at the well-known Travel Photographer Of The Year awards, often simply called TPOTY. TPOTY is perhaps the most recognized travel photography award in the world and is acknowledged by many leading photographers. Browsing through the genres of images that TPOTY has been accepting in the last few years, it is evident that their scope of a travel photograph too, is all-encompassing, which includes landscapes, photodocumentaries, stree life, journeys, heritage and much more. A well-known champion of travel photography on the internet, Tewfic El-Sawy takes a more focused approach in his scope of travel photography. El-Sawy promotes travel photographers through his widely followed blog, where he introduced his readers to portfolios of upcoming/well-known travel photographers and also announces his own travel photography tours. His coverage usually limited to very specific topics that involves documenting cultures and professions that are usually considered non-mainstream. For example, his tours have topics like Kolkatas Cult of Durga, The oracles of Kerala or Sufis of Gujarat.
