Photography skills of sketching with emotion.

Lead: If you want to take a good photo, the equipment is not the most important. On the contrary, it is more important to have a pair of "photographic eyes" that can explore good subjects and good light. Cultivating a good photographer's vision cannot be achieved overnight. You need to practice more on weekdays. The theme of "sketch photography" can make you easily exercise the photographer's vision, which is really a rare photography activity. Now let's see how to shoot!

Photographic skills of sketching with emotion (1) Selection of equipment

Usually shooting big scenes, you may bring a big camera, several lenses and a bunch of equipment such as filters, tripods, pay-offs and so on. But "sketch photography" which focuses on training photographers focuses on simple shooting, so you don't have to pay attention to camera lens, a fixed-focus mirrorless camera, or a small DC, or even a mobile phone, which avoids complicated equipment settings and allows you to concentrate more on composition.

(2) Looking for light and shadow

One of the elements of taking good-looking sketch photos is to find interesting light and shadow. Capturing light is the basis of photography. If you can "see" attractive light (or shadow) and photograph it, a good work will be born!

(3) Close to shooting, looking for details and highlighting the subject.

Sketch photography does not emphasize beautiful clouds or beautiful models, but pays attention to "details" and the expression of meaning. Even an ordinary street or a fallen leaf on the grass, as long as you are close enough to find the subject and tell stories with photos, you can often arouse readers' infinite fantasies!

(D) the use of color and contrast

Color contrast can make your photos have greater impact, whether it is black-and-white (light and dark) contrast, backlight scattered light, or focus in the spotlight, it can also let you take pictures of people.

(5) looking for lines and geometric figures

Our surroundings are actually full of lines and geometric patterns. As long as you can observe from different angles, you can always find something interesting!

(6) Make good use of the words or symbols of photos.

Don't ignore the meaning of words or symbols in photos. What I'm talking about here is not the title or watermark added at the back, but the words or symbols that really appear at the moment of shooting. If these words or symbols can be integrated into the photos, it will definitely enhance the story and appeal of the photos, and an interesting sketch will be born!
