How to cultivate photographic eyes?

The photographic eye is an observation ability, which can see what can be photographed. The same scene, if you look at it with your heart, will be different from what others see. It's your uniqueness to shoot the scenes you see in your heart.

Excellent photographic eyes have a lot to do with rich imagination, association and sensitivity. Memories as Long as Rails is a masterpiece of Yu Guangzhong's prose. If you can see such a track, what you see is no longer just the intact track itself, but then you associate it with life memory or inspiration, and then show this feeling on the picture, then such a photo will definitely be different from others.

Suggestions on the cultivation of photographic eyes can start from the following aspects, starting from usual:

Observe more: don't take out your camera and press the shutter immediately when you see the beautiful scenery, but observe and appreciate everything you see with your eyes and mind, from near to far, from big to small, from bright to dark, from deep to shallow and so on. Look at the light and shadow, stand and squat and try to observe and discover from different positions.

2. See the world with imagination and association: "The sky in Kenting is very Greek!" Maybe it's just simple imagination and association, which inspires you with new inspiration and then realizes it in your works.

3. Read more books: I encourage you to read more books in various fields here. For example, many of my inspirations come from literary books, and most of my composition methods come from impressionism, but not photography books.

4. See more first-class photographs: let yourself be constantly impacted by first-class works, and carefully observe what attracts you from the works of these masters. What do you see? Ask yourself, what would I do if I was asked to shoot the same location as the master? Where will I shoot? All these are helpful to the development of photographic eye ability.
