Abstract | : | “No pict is hoax” is a statement usually used by young people, which means that pictures need to be taken to provide a sense of meaningfulness to their stories. Generally, tourists use pictures to share their experiences from the tourist destination with their relatives, friends, and communities. In this digital era, there is no real need to share the photographs in printed version. Through the Internet, people can share their moments with all of their acquaintances in social media. This paper reports on research undertaken into tourists photo taking behavior at Nglanggeran Ancient Volcano. It finds that respondents take some pictures as part of self-actualization. Tourists mainly use camera in their mobile phones in preference to other photographic devices, which they will typically share via social media. The result shows that most respondents take pictures and share them in a single device that is mobile phone. |
