What are the mobile phone shooting skills of succulents?

1, macro can take details:

(1) To shoot succulents, you can start from a small place and shoot some details of succulents with a macro lens and a mobile phone.

(2) When shooting in macro mode, it should be noted that the mobile phone should be close enough to the succulents to be photographed, so that the details can be more clear and obvious.

(3) When shooting, we should also pay attention to avoid the messy colors on the background, so that the overall color of the photos can be relatively unified and harmonious, so that the meat photos taken at macro will not appear messy, but will be more concise and beautiful.

(4) Some mobile phones are in professional mode, and some are icons of a small flower. Find the macro mode of your mobile phone and try it. If there is no focus (that is, the subject is blurred), AF can be adjusted. When it is turned on, it will become MF, which means manual focusing. Move the vertical bar below to make the flesh of the subject clear, indicating that the focus is finished, and then press the shutter.

2, the combination of reality and reality to shoot everything:

(1) Using a large aperture to blur the background or the scenery outside the subject, you can take photos of almost all succulents.

(2) Now some mobile phones have a large aperture mode, and some mobile phones will automatically adjust to a large aperture when shooting these small plants. If you use an Apple phone, or your phone doesn't have an adjustable aperture, you can try portrait mode.

(3) When shooting, click the subject on the mobile phone screen. The point of the flesh is the focus, and it is blurred outside the focus.

(4) If the background is to be blurred, the foreground subject should be far enough away from the background, and the background should be noiseless. Similarly, after focusing on succulents on the screen, press the shutter again.

3, the color faded:

(1) Open the photo to be adjusted with the mobile phone retouching software Snapseed.

(2) Click the tool, select the blurred lens, and concentric circles appear in the photo. Move the center of the concentric circle to the main succulent plant, and compress two fingers to the middle, so that the main succulent plant is located in the 1 circle. 1 circle is clear, with transition in the middle and fuzzy outside. Sliding your finger up and down can adjust the corresponding parameters, maintain a certain vignetting intensity, and make the photo look more stereoscopic.

(3) Then click Tools and select local parts. Point your finger on the succulent plant in the photo subject, and press the screen with two fingers to contract to the middle, and Chinese characters will appear. This circle is the control range of this local adjustment point. The main succulent plant is located in the circle, and the finger slides up and down to improve the structure respectively, so that the texture of succulent plant is clearer, the saturation is improved, the contrast and brightness are improved, and the color of main plant is better.

(4) We found that there were some words on the flowerpot in the background, but these words didn't add extra points to the photo, and they would also attract the attention of the viewer and distract the attention of the viewer, so we clicked Tools, chose Repair, and erased the words on the flowerpot.

(5) Click the tool again, select tone contrast, slide your finger up and down, and adjust the parameters of tone contrast. High tone is the detail of the bright part of the whole photo, middle tone is the detail of the brightness in the middle of the photo, and low tone is the detail of the dark part of the photo.

(6) After adjustment, we found that wood grain was clear, while the texture of succulents was too clear and not very beautiful. It would be better if it can have some soft effects, so click the curved arrow in the upper right corner to see the modified content, and the tone contrast appears on the right. Click the middle brush to enter the mask.

(7) Click the reverse selection in the lower left corner of the mask, adjust the hue contrast value to 0, and erase the succulents in the middle body to restore them to a soft state.

(8) After adjustment, it can be exported.

4, basin multi-composition light and shadow superposition:

(1) Pay attention to composition and the use of light and shadow when shooting. For example, the photo of 1 does not make good use of composition and light and shadow, and the whole photo will look too messy.

(2) In the photo below, we put the succulents in a place with mottled light and shadow, focusing on the middle basin. The foreground is blurred and the background has mottled light and shadow, which makes them look fuller and have better details.

(3) We can also use the central composition to make the number of plants on the horizontal line in the middle of the photo. For many succulents, the main body in the center of the photo will be more prominent, and the primary and secondary photos will be more obvious. Even if there are many pots, it's not that messy.
