Shooting Techniques of Mirror of the Sky

The skill of shooting the sky only needs to put the mirror flat in front of the lens of the mobile phone or camera, and then adjust the tilt angle of the mirror.

The shooting difference between water surface and mirror:

1, water surface:

First of all, the authenticity of the scenery. As can be seen in the photo, although the lake presents a reflection, due to the influence of waves, the reflection fluctuates greatly, and it is impossible to present a complete and clear reflection.

2. Mirror:

Mirrors are used to reflect the shot scene. The original part of the lake is completely covered by a mirror, and the reflection is very clear and complete, which looks like the reflection of the lake itself.

Precautions for shooting:

Although the shooting principle is simple, there are still some things to pay attention to if you want to shoot the most perfect (mirror of the sky). First, the horizon is located in the middle of the photo as far as possible, so there is enough space to adjust the angle of the mirror to ensure a complete reflection. At the same time, the horizon in the mirror should be aligned with the real horizon, so that the reflection presented is closer to reality.

Then don't be too far away from the scene or character being photographed, let it be on the horizon in the picture. Too far away will make the mirror unable to show enough reflection, and it is difficult to align the horizon in the mirror with the real horizon in the process of adjusting the angle of the mirror.

The inner side of the mirror should be as close as possible to the lower edge of the lens, so as to present the mirror image to the maximum extent, while the outer side needs to adjust the tilt position repeatedly. If the inclination is too low, the mirror image will not be aligned. If the inclination is too high, the mirror will cover the subject and the whole photo will become very strange.

When adjusting the position of the mirror, we should also be careful not to let the cross section of the mirror enter the picture, otherwise the whole picture will appear very serious ripples.

Type of mirror used:

It is best to take pictures with a mirror without a border, otherwise the border of the mirror will appear in the picture and directly see the flaw. Adjusting the angle of the mirror needs patience and care, otherwise it can't be adjusted to the best effect. If it is inconvenient to adjust with one hand, you can fix the mobile phone or camera with a tripod, and then hold the mirror with both hands, which is more convenient to adjust.
