How to make a good work?

The shooting effect of a photo depends on the choice of the subject.

Why is photography attractive? Why does it fascinate us? The author thinks that photography is interesting because of the following four factors: the subject, equipment, photography skills and mind. Among them, the excavation of subject matter is the most important, which is an indispensable reason for producing excellent works. I want to analyze the four main reasons here, and discuss the charm of taking pictures with SLR cameras and the secret of improving shooting skills.

1. Four factors that make photography interesting

With the development and evolution of SLR cameras, zoom lenses are also extremely popular. The structure of SLR camera is very suitable for using zoom lens. Being able to use zoom lens is the charm of SLR camera. In addition, for the convenience of people who don't know what's interesting about SLR cameras and zoom heads, I'd better talk about the fun of photos first.

Movies have various charms, and the author divides them into four parts:

1. Theme-What's interesting to shoot?

The first is to choose a subject. In the world of photos, choosing what to shoot is the most important. For example, the theme you are looking for, the theme you are doing, the theme you care about and so on. People who can take good photos are often those who have a photographic theme that they can't stop. Mount Fuji, cherry blossoms and red leaves are photographed by many photographers every year.

2. Equipment-operation is interesting

The second point is what we often say about cameras, lenses, films and other equipment. Since its invention, the camera has been attracting people as a tool. In the past, some people were fascinated by the exquisiteness of machinery, but now because of the application of microprocessor in the camera, the camera has realized multi-function and can use all kinds of skills freely. The detailed description of the lens has also been improved, and the image quality has also made a qualitative leap. There are also manic patients who are happy to play with cameras all day.

3. Photography skills-improve happiness

The third point is the skill of photography, which is easy to understand, that is, the shooting method. Facing the same subject, the photos taken by different shooting methods will be completely different, which can also be said to be magical. The benchmark to decide whether a photo is good or bad is photography skill. The improvement of skills will make us feel happy!

4. Mind and intelligence-creation is fun.

The fourth point is intelligence. It means mind and spirit. Photos are an expression. The so-called performance is to think with your heart, melt what you feel in your work and pass it on to others. Photos can give full play to their advantages in this respect. In other words, the fourth point is the fun of creating photos.

What's so interesting about photos? What theme suits you? Readers who plan to start taking pictures in the future should ask themselves. Once you understand the overall meaning of photography, it depends on the knowledge you have accumulated, and sorting it out in your brain is linked to the improvement of your level. This doesn't mean that you have to learn everything. The key is to find out which aspect of photography you want to learn. Knowing this, you are close to improving your level.

Second, 90% of good photos depend on the choice of subjects (subjects).

1. Two personalities of photos: recording and creative expression.

A photo has two faces, one for recording and the other for creative expression. The former includes news reports, natural science photography, snapshots and commemorative photos, while the latter refers to artistic photography such as landscape photography, sports photography and advertising photography. However, no matter what kind of photos, it is impossible to completely classify them, because they contain both documentary and artistic aspects. Similarly, no matter what kind of photo it is, it shows the photographer's personality, perceptual knowledge, concept, life experience, mood and orientation method to the subject.

You can see the photographer's personality from the photos. Even when facing the same subject, different photographers will take different photos, because photos can show the author's mind. If you show it naturally, you can actively show it as an intention.

You can tell everyone your views and experiences through photos. At this point, literature, music, sports and artistic ability (a kind of Japanese drama) are all the same. Recently, I feel deeply that Ichiro (a Japanese player who plays baseball in the United States) is a super popular player in the United States and Japan because of his superb skills. Japan regards this as the pride of the Japanese, and there are news about him every day in the sports news) to fully express himself with baseball. Photos are very interesting for people who show concern. I hope those clumsy people who are not good at writing articles can challenge to express their ideas with photos.

2. Pass on your ideas through photos and experience the fun.

Specifically, psychological intelligence is to express theme, image and motivation as a way of thinking.

Motivation is closely related to pressing the shutter. When you press the shutter, there must be a reason for you to press it. Sometimes we also pay attention to the changes of the subject, such as expressions, the beauty of light, incredible phenomena and precious scenes. On the other hand, the photographer's emotional changes such as surprise, emotion, expectation, disappointment, sympathy and hatred are also opportunities for us to press the shutter. All these can be called motivation, which is the intellectual spark of generate in front of the subject.

An image is a photo, and the manuscript has been written in the brain before shooting. Just like the design drawing we have drawn on the table, we have imagined that we will take such a photo. Although it is rare to take photos exactly like the draft, it is essential for us to design a blueprint in our mind before shooting. In fact, if you want to take the same photos as the blueprint you designed in advance, you must rely on hard work and luck, and you will be particularly happy when it really becomes a reality.

The theme can be said to be the idea of a group of works produced by considering a large number of images. As a form of media, it is essential to realize the function of delivering what to whom, which is necessary when holding a photo exhibition and shooting a portfolio. Themed shooting activities will make you feel the highest sense of accomplishment.

Although the subject matter, photographic equipment and photographic skills are slightly different, they are basically the same. The subjects are accessible to anyone, such as Mount Fuji and cherry blossoms, and many photographers are taking pictures at the same time. Photographic equipment will vary from manufacturer to manufacturer, but there is no big difference. All kinds of books describing photography skills have been standardized, which are similar. But the mind varies from person to person, so it has a strong performance value. For those who have a strong interest in creation, the part of mind and intelligence is a very interesting topic.

What about the whole picture? Interest and center have been explained. And we should always analyze what is interesting, what is boring, what we are good at and what we are not good at. Knowing this, you can take good photos after transcending your own weaknesses.
