How to take the best photos?

But most people tend to take pictures when they pick up the camera, so the results are very different. In fact, to take good photos, besides cameras, it also has a lot to do with photographers. I'm not a professional photographer, so I can't say anything professional, and the arrangement is rather chaotic. I just want to share with you some experiences when I took pictures. If I said anything inappropriate, I hope you can point it out.

1, highlighting the subject

Photography is the same as writing. You should have a distinct theme or theme, that is, what your photos mainly want to show. If the theme is not prominent, the will in the work cannot be well expressed. So, what can I do to highlight the subject when shooting? In a word: closer, closer. Let's take a look at the following two photos first. Flowers, too. There are many flowers on the left. I don't know which to look at. The right side is stretched closer, the main body is more prominent and the effect is better.

Because digital cameras are basically intelligent (also called fools), people who have no photography foundation will take pictures, and with the reduction of prices and costs, more and more families have digital cameras, and many people like to take some photos as souvenirs when they go out to play.

2. Golden anchor point

The above example is a still life, which is a little close-up, so it is taken closer. In actual shooting, we often shoot people with scenery, which may not be so close. At this time, we should pay attention to the relationship between position and proportion, that is, where to put people. There is a "golden section" in mathematics, which is 0.6 18, and it is also in the photo. We can divide the photo into three equal parts and draw two lines horizontally and vertically. There will be four intersections in the photo, and each intersection is the "golden position point" in the photo, as shown below. When a person's head is in these four positions, it can attract people's attention most. In contrast, the above two positions are better. Of course, not all photos must follow this principle. Generally, the golden location is suitable for full-length or half-length photos. It doesn't matter if you take a close-up photo, just take a clear one.

3. Pay attention to the difference in shape and size

When an object is displayed in front of us, it is often a big object that attracts attention. On the small screen, it is also an important way to make full use of the limited area and let the main performance objects occupy a larger area. Close-up works often have strong visual impact, because the subject in close-up photos occupies the main or even the whole picture, and there is almost no background unrelated to the theme. When we travel, there are many pictures of people beside huge buildings such as towers and gates. Because buildings are large, but few people, the proportion is seriously out of balance, so the effect is often bad. In fact, as long as people move forward close to the camera, the characters will appear distinct, the people will be photographed clearly, and the scenery will be inside. In the following two photos, the figure on the left is almost nothing to see, and it is easy to be influenced by nearby tourists. The statue on the right is more obvious. If you're filming someone, it's the same.

Step 4 use light and shadows

Photography is the art of light and shadow. Therefore, it is also an important means to highlight the subject by using the relationship between light and shade. The usual practice is to arrange the main body in bright light, and the less important foil body in dark place. The main body can be highlighted by various lighting means. For example, a bright background sets off a dark subject, a dark background sets off a bright subject, and so on. It is feasible and convenient to highlight the main body by using the change of light. The following two pictures are similar in angle, position and size, but the one on the right is more prominent because of the deeper background.

5, the use of composition means

From the perspective of visual psychology, we can guide the audience's line of sight with the help of suitable lines, such as; Rivers; Stream, etc. Used as a guide line to lead out the main body. But there is no certain rule, so we need to improvise. What we should pay attention to is that, in general, we should not let the characters form a shape parallel to the horizontal plane or perpendicular to the ground. This arrangement is rather boring. Look at the following two pictures. The building wall on the left is almost vertical to the ground, and the balcony is almost parallel to the horizontal plane, which looks very dull. The one on the right, from another angle, breaks a 90-degree angle and immediately forms a visual impact. So is the shooter. Standing photos are the most dull. As long as you put your hands or feet in a posture and break the vertical angle of 90 degrees, even the photos of bared teeth are much more vivid.

Of course, these are just the basics. A really good photo requires the photographer to grasp the moment and press the shutter. Put two snapshot photos that you are satisfied with, for communication only. You can also upload your own photos and share them together.
