How to shoot a fog scene

Fog is formed by many tiny water spots, so it can reflect a lot of scattered light. The farther the distance, the more scattered light, the brighter the color tone, and the less clear the distant scenery. Therefore, the scenery shrouded in mist can clearly distinguish the foreground from the foreground, and enhance the sense of depth of space. Mist can cover up the chaotic background, briefly outline the main images in the picture and improve the expressive force. Attention should be paid to: 1 when shooting. The brightness of the foggy scene is very high, so the exposure should be controlled correctly to avoid overexposure. 2, the fog contrast is small, it is best to use slow and medium speed film when shooting. In order to make the negative film get greater contrast, it can also be improved by reducing exposure and increasing development time. 3. When arranging the picture composition, we should try to choose a scene with a middle view and a close view to show the depth of the scene. In the foreground, dark scenes should be chosen during the day. 4. Generally, it is not suitable for shooting in dense fog, because its visibility is too low, except for close shot, middle shot and long shot. At this time, if you add a yellow filter or an orange filter, you can weaken the fog effect. Because the yellow-orange filter can absorb blue-purple short-wave light and enhance the light transmission ability. If you want to enhance the effect of fog, you can add a blue filter or fog mirror. Fog mirrors are divided into 1 and No.2, and different atomization effects can be obtained. If you want to strengthen atomization, you can also add 1 and No.2 fog mirror together. On foggy days, when the fog is shrouded, the visibility is too low to take pictures. When the fog clears and the sun shines from the side or the opposite side, it is the best time to shoot the fog scene. The following principles should be mastered when shooting fog scenes: 1. The fog effect of some scenes can be exaggerated by shooting with telescope lens or extended range lens. When shooting at night, the fog effect is exaggerated by the extremely low solar energy. 2. The brightness of the fog scene is very high. To avoid overexposure. 3. The contrast of foggy scenes is small, so it is best to use slow and medium speed films when shooting. In order to get a negative film with large contrast, we can also improve it by reducing exposure and increasing development time. The contrast in rainy and foggy weather is weak. If black and white film is taken, the exposure can be appropriately reduced, the development time can be increased and the contrast can be improved. 4. When arranging the picture composition, we should try our best to choose distant, middle and close-up scenes. To show the depth of the scene. Try to choose dark scenes for foreground and middle scenes. The closer the scene in the fog is to the lens, the stronger the tone and the farther away it is. Choose the foreground when shooting to increase the sense of hierarchy and space. 5. It is generally not suitable for shooting in dense fog, because the visibility is too low. If you add a yellow filter or an orange mirror to black-and-white photography, you can weaken the effect of dense fog. If you want to enhance the effect of fog, you can add.
