How to sweep the street correctly

You need to consider the composition factor before sweeping the street correctly.

This requires a lot of practice to accumulate experience. Experienced people, the shooting success rate can reach more than 80%. Even when shooting, you can consider composition and put the subject on the TIC-tac-toe line. Those with higher technical level can also adjust the composition by feeling after focusing is completed. In other words, an experienced blind shot has actually completed the idea of the picture in his mind, although he has not directly observed the subject through the camera.

Of course, this can't be done overnight. Before that, you should arm yourself properly from equipment to lens, and be familiar with your lens and framing range. A successful work must have a clear time, place, people and events, and the photographer's position should be a third-party perspective, similar to the protagonist in CS. Instead of shooting face to face with the subject in most cases, the characters may be clear, but they will lack story.

Street sweeping skills

1, excuse me

If it is shot by two people, one person can attract others' attention, and the other person can shoot the subject in the middle or distant scene through the hair, bag and legs of the foreground person, which often receives unexpected results. This composition will be rare, special and imitative.

2, low shooting

That is, put the camera on the ground and preset the parameters of the slow door, which can simulate some explosions or special effects. Of course, the choice of viewfinder or blind shot depends on the venue and your understanding of composition.

3, fixed-point shooting

As long as you stand at the subway exit, the preset parameters of the camera ensure the minimum safety shutter or slow door effect, and then cast a net for people entering and leaving the station. Although the rejection rate may be high, the output rate will be better if the flip screen is used, and it will be more difficult if it is through the LCD screen. Suitable for daytime shooting.
