What are the skills of landscape photography composition?

Composition skills of landscape photography;

1, remember the dichotomy.

If you want to improve your composition, this is a basic composition skill that should be remembered. People's eyes usually fall on one third of the picture (up, down, left and right). When writing a composition, you should always remember this rule.

2. Space is a friend.

Don't always try to fill the picture with themes. Leaving a certain space can add a lot of color to photos. Remember, space is as important as theme.

3. Make good use of geometry

Train your eyes to recognize lines, patterns and shapes. These elements can increase the structural sense of the photo and help to highlight the three-dimensional sense of the subject. Lines can guide the audience's line of sight, focus on a theme, and then find lines to point to.

4. Build a picture frame

Using the foreground to form a "picture frame" can effectively guide the audience's attention to the subject. Please note that different shapes and sizes of "photo frames" are not only suitable for windows or fences. For example, in this photo, big trees form a "picture frame".

5. Avoid the horizon in the center of the picture.

First, ensure that the horizon is horizontal; Second, don't appear in the center of the picture. If the sky is more interesting, let the horizon be lower; If the earth is more interesting, raise the horizon.

6. Bring life to photos

Try to add something vivid to the photo. You can emphasize the size and proportion of the picture to the audience.

7. Avoid overlapping horizons

If the horizon intersects with the subject, it will distract the audience, and in serious cases, it may ruin an excellent composition. Take some time to change the shooting angle to avoid this situation. In this picture, pay special attention not to let the horizon coincide with the edge of the barn.

8. Individual subjects are eye-catching.

A single theme-such as trees, barns, buildings or motorcycles-can always make excellent works.

9, related to size

Try to take something in the picture that can provide the audience with proportional information. People or things let the audience intuitively feel the size of the picture, such as the car in the illustration.

Think before you press the shutter.

Thinking before pressing the shutter applies to any kind of photography. Specific to this article, it is to make sure that there are no irrelevant objects in your composition. If possible, remove those objects, otherwise move yourself and try to avoid them appearing in the composition.
