How to take a beautiful picture without retouching?

I'm just a very amateur photographer. My kung fu is not deep, so I'm trying to teach an axe here. If it's wrong, everyone will criticize and correct me.

first, photography is a technology of "using light".

Go to see other people's beautiful photos, or go to WeChat WeChat official account, Weibo, etc. Some masters can always handle light well. I remember Zhao Mosheng said to He Yichen, "This is the best time for me to handle light". The quality of photos is closely related to the use of light. If you want to take good-looking light, it is recommended to take photos before 1 am and after 3 pm. The light is suitable for people to take pictures and the scenery is good. The light at noon is too strong, so it is not recommended to shoot at noon.

second, the basic composition should be used well.

A photo with poor composition is difficult to repair later. If you don't want to retouch the picture, the best way is to figure out how to compose it before taking a photo and use basic composition methods such as trisection. Try to open the reference line with your mobile phone, that is, the nine squares, and put what you want to express most on the intersection. In addition, it should be noted that the image must be simple, and the simpler the better. Not too much. What a photo can express is actually limited.

third, the theme.

The theme is very important. You can shoot the academic spirit at school and the food map when you eat. Don't just pat a place when you see it. Oh, I came to this place. Whether it is people or scenery, we should combine the characteristics of that time, think of a good theme, add a little creativity, and the ticket circle is enough for you.

retouching is only to modify some imperfect things, not to reconstruct them. The best way is to think clearly about what you want before taking pictures, and think about what you want to present most, and how many points you can give to this group of photos if you let yourself grade them, and so on. Taking good photos requires both heart and taking more photos. Nothing is difficult in the world, so take your time taking pictures.
