Several tips you need to pay attention to when taking outdoor photography

First, the person being photographed should not be too close to the colored environment. Under bright light, the reflectivity of the object will be enhanced. In this case, do not get close to those brightly colored scenery, otherwise those The color of the scenery will be mapped onto the characters, causing a color cast.

Secondly, do not stand on the cement floor to take pictures when the light is shining on your head, because the surface of the cement floor is relatively flat and light in color, which will form a strong reflection. This bottom-up "footlight" , will cause a terrifying effect and should be avoided as much as possible.

3. Do not stand next to a tree to take pictures. When a person stands next to a tree to take a picture, the sunlight will project the leaves onto the person's body and face, causing mottled shadows, which will detract from the beauty of the picture.

4. Don’t ignore the filter. Under a cloudless blue sky, wear a blue mask in all places that are protected from light; and under the glow of the sunset, the scenery is dyed with a layer of color. Orange red. In this environment, if you want to keep the original color of the scenery you shoot, you must install a corresponding filter in front of the lens. In the former case, you can use a light red or amber filter. In the latter case, a light blue filter can be used.

5. Do not use high-speed film. Under the clear sky and scorching sun, the light intensity is already very high. If you use high-speed film, it will often force the aperture to be extremely small, or you will not be able to use a slower shutter speed. These situations will bring limitations to photographic creation.

6. Don’t fill in light randomly. Under bright sunlight, the scenery will have a strong contrast. In order to avoid excessive contrast, it is effective to use auxiliary light for auxiliary lighting, but it must be measured appropriately, not only to avoid the auxiliary light being too bright, but also to avoid exposing traces of the auxiliary light.

7. Don’t be in a place exposed to direct sunlight. Bright sunlight provides good lighting conditions, makes the scenery lively and saturated in color, and provides conditions for using high-speed shutter and small aperture. However, strong sunlight can also cause problems. The most prominent one is that its dazzling light can make the subjects unable to open their eyes. At the same time, high-angle direct sunlight can also cause heavy shadows on the subjects' faces and reveal skin wrinkles. , damaging the image and beauty of the character. Therefore, when taking photos outdoors, you should let the sun shine on the subject from the side, and do not let the face face directly towards the sun.

8. Don’t let the backlight shine directly into the lens. When shooting with backlight under strong light conditions, prevent the light from shining directly into the lens, otherwise halos will easily occur.

9. Do not wear clothing that is too reflective. When taking photos under strong light, the person being photographed will become white or have large spots if they wear clothing that is highly reflective (such as a white shirt, etc.) Traces make it difficult for clothes to show.
