Matters needing attention in landscape photography

Notes for landscape photography

What are the notes for landscape photography? Maybe everyone will ignore the advantages when taking pictures. Next, I will tell you in detail!

First, make preparations and leave room:

It is best to arrive at the shooting location one hour in advance and make all the preparations for shooting. To bring all the necessary photographic equipment and accessories, a tripod is essential, and enough film and batteries should be prepared to prevent "running out of ammunition" at that time. If you shoot the sunrise, you should arrive before dawn and wait for the fleeting sunrise after making full preparations.

Second, be patient:

It is impossible for a person without patience to become a good landscape photographer. The "patience" mentioned here is not blindly waiting for the clouds to clear up, but when you find a scenery that you think is really worth shooting, and the shooting conditions are not ideal at this time, you can shoot later, or shoot in another season, or even spend several years waiting for the right shooting opportunity.

Third, be familiar with your equipment:

The change of natural light often leads to the rapid change of the subject's situation, so you should be good at grasping the fleeting moments in shooting. The premise is that you should be really familiar with and fully master the equipment used, especially the various functions of the camera. It is unforgivable to miss an excellent shooting opportunity just because you don't know the equipment and are in a hurry.

Fourth, take more photos:

When you are intoxicated by the charming scenery in front of you, you will think that what you have taken must be a perfect landscape photography. However, the shooting angle you use is only a point in the ring around the subject. How can you be sure that only this location you have chosen is the best shooting point? Although we don't really need to take a ring shot, it is very beneficial to change the shooting viewpoint and angle, use different focal lengths of the lens and different exposure combinations (that is, adopt surrounding exposure).

5. Learn to make use of bad weather:

Mist, overcast clouds, and impending storms … all these so-called bad lighting conditions can be used. In fact, many of the excellent landscape photographs we have seen were not taken under sunny and clear weather conditions in Wan Li.

Sixth, don't ignore the role of attachments:

In landscape photography, flexible use of various filters can add icing on the cake to the work. Of course, the filter can't be abused, and it can't destroy the original field lighting conditions, otherwise it will feel artificial. You can also use the flash to play auxiliary light to increase the foreground details in the work.

VII. Flexible use of composition:

Although many works conform to these typical composition rules, they should never be applied with the rule of three-point composition when shooting. Dare and be good at breaking these laws. Good composition can only be obtained through careful observation, careful understanding and courage to practice, and it is impossible to shoot excellent landscape photography by copying composition mechanically. ;
