Media
You can add up to 5 media items to each of your Pebbls. You can add a mix of photos and videos to share a comprehensive picture of your experience.
When considering what media to add, here are some tips to help you capture your adventure beyond the usual holiday snapshots:
Capture the Environment: Highlight the beautiful and unique surroundings of your adventure. Whether it’s a sweeping landscape, bustling city streets, or hidden nooks of nature, these images can truly convey the atmosphere of your journey.
Detail Shots: Don’t forget to take close-ups of interesting details, such as unique flora and fauna, architectural elements, local cuisine, or cultural artifacts. These shots can provide a more immersive experience for your followers.
Action Shots: If possible, try to capture yourself or your travel companions in the midst of activity – such as hiking up a hill, cycling down a path, or exploring a local market. This not only showcases the action and adventure but also adds a human element to your journey.
Sunrise/Sunset: Photos taken during the “golden hours” – shortly after sunrise or before sunset – often have a warm, soft light that can make your images look more professional and captivating.
Tell a Story: Remember, each piece of media you add to your Pebbls contributes to the narrative of your journey. Try to select images and videos that help to tell your story, rather than simply being good standalone pieces.
Keep it Authentic: While it’s important to strive for quality, don’t let the pursuit of the ‘perfect shot’ take away from the authenticity of your experience. Sometimes, the most meaningful photos are the candid ones that capture genuine moments.
