The greatest cliché travel photos

(And how to make them original anyway)

Ah, cliché snapshots while travelling, we almost all do it and, as far as I'm concerned, we should mostly keep doing it. At least, except for a few photos that are actually just gigantically ready. Or could be pimped, let's say. So here we go: on to original photos.

The cliché: feet in the sand

So it appears people don't care at all how shitty their toes look in this photo. It always gives me the creeps. And if you do the feet-in-the-sand photo, please do it with nail polish on, okay? Deal.

How to make it original?

By simply getting rid of that sand. How about a feet-in-the-air pose? Or a picture from the sole of your feet while drawing all kinds of faces on your toes? Was Jettie always good at that.

The cliché: the ‘Look, I'm standing by a famous building!’

Give people a tourist attraction and they go loco. Come on, honestly, you do this one too. Finger or foot flipping the Tower of Pisa, in front of the Eiffel Tower, the Sagrada Familia, The London Eye, The Empire State Building. And just to be fair, actually almost all photos taken here are the same.

How to make it original?

Buy a crazy attribute. Mothers are always brilliant at these kinds of ideas. And trust me: you really want to take a look Which picture she took at the tower of Pisa.

The cliché: the hot dog leg

Yes, you know the one: the holiday photo by the sea with the knees up. To boast about how nice you have it. And how tanned you are. And okay okay, maybe also to show off those slim thighs.

How to make it original?

Please take the best possible fake photo with two knackers and start the knackers challenge on Insta. Then I really think you are a hero.

The cliché: the jumping photo (on the beach)

The jumping photo is a difficult one of its kind. It is so laborious and timeworn that it should hardly be cliché. And yet: everyone does the jump.

How to make it original?

Then I also think you should go all the way jumping 2.0. Go to a trampoline park or tie those bouncing shoes underneath (yes, those exist and then you jump like a kangaroo, TE COOL) and go wild with your jumping technique.
