Several elements to be grasped in documentary photography

To capture a good photo, you must first capture the target.

If your subject is a group of lively children, you should always have your shutter ready.

Because of the characteristics of children, if you want to take good photos, you can't just "click" one and leave. You can observe their mood and expression changes until you take a satisfactory photo.

Second, the trap trap

The trap is not to play tricks on people, but to wait patiently for the opportunity.

See the beautiful light and wait for something worth shooting to appear; When you see a beautiful place, wait until the light is more beautiful.

For example, in the following scene, the statue on the roadside is spectacular, revealing a solemn feeling. Then wait quietly for people passing by.

A young monk in a red and purple cassock appeared from behind, and the picture moved instantly. Press the shutter and an impact work is born.

The picture turned into an adult monk, and the atmosphere of the work changed again. Steady pace, calm expression, and background integration, more solemn.

Third, courage and courage.

Don't be shy when taking documentary photos, don't mind other people's eyes, and have courage.

Many people around me are not used to the camera in their hands, and the expression on their faces will be even more ugly when they lift the camera to shoot. It doesn't matter if you want to shoot this expression, otherwise ask whether you can shoot it in a friendly way: of course, it's no problem to promise, and run if you don't promise. (Ha ha ha ha ha ...)

Of course, if your subject is warm, friendly and extremely cooperative, don't hesitate to press your shutter.
