Photography knowledge: how to compose a landscape photo (photo)

Composition is the first step in photography. Although the law of photographic composition is not dead, understanding composition can avoid some primary mistakes. When looking at a good work, you can also understand why the photographer wants to shoot like this, which is also very helpful for your own promotion. This paper introduces the composition of photographic works. Although this paper focuses on the composition of landscape photography, landscape composition is the most complicated one, so after mastering these rules, many of them can be applied to other types of photography. Attractive scenery 1) Attractive scenery composition The first step is to find an attractive scenery. Photography is not simply picking up the camera and pressing the shutter. Before you press the shutter, you should ask yourself, what attracted you to this scene? Is it a color? Cloud? Reflection? Or sunset? . . . After determining the theme, the next step is how to express it. Usually, the subject should be large enough to attract attention. If the subject is too small, it can't be a subject. At this time, it is necessary to use a longer focal length or post-cutting to deal with it. Avoid centering 2) Avoid centering. The most common mistake that beginners make is to put the most attractive scenery in the middle. Indeed, the scenery in the middle is the easiest to attract people's attention, but a good photo should attract readers' attention and guide them to other places. If an attractive object is placed in the middle, it is easy to focus only on that object and make the picture dull. At the same time, try not to put the horizontal line in the middle of the picture, because it will easily lead to unclear priorities and not knowing whether to express the sky or the ground. But sometimes when the sky and the ground are equally important, I also put the horizontal line in the middle.
