When you learn the general formula of photography, you are the king of involution.

1, small aperture depth of field, fully open paste background.

The small lamp has a large depth of field and a large focus range, which can play the role of great scene clarity and detail expression. The large aperture scene is shallow and the focus range is small, which can highlight the theme and blur the background. But the practical application of depth of field depends on the focal length and distance of the lens.

The longer the focal length, the larger the aperture and the shallower the depth of field; The shorter the focal length, the smaller the aperture and the greater the depth of field. At the same time, the length of camera distance also has a great relationship with the control of depth of field.

2, look at the mountain to find the side light, look at the water to shoot the reflection.

The purpose of looking at the mountain and looking for side light is to make the landscape layered and three-dimensional by using natural light, rather than making the picture single. Taking a reflection with water is also one of the commonly used techniques in photography. In the absence of wind and rain, the water surface is like a mirror, and it is more poetic to use the scene to shoot reflections.

3, streams should be exposed for a long time, continuous and dense.

Most scenes such as leaking cloth and streams can be exposed for a long time by using the slow door, which makes the picture feel drizzly and has a special artistic conception. You can also use high-speed shutter shooting according to your own creativity to solidify scenes such as water droplets, which will be another scene.

4, flower side backlight, slow door movement

It is a common technique to shoot all kinds of flowers in reverse light. Its advantage is that due to the effect of light, the picture has a sense of hierarchy and three-dimensionality, and at the same time, it can make the flowers transparent and the texture fully displayed, forming a sharp contrast between light and shade and highlighting the theme. Some special flowers can be operated by slow door to form the artistic conception and effect of dynamic and static combination.

5, the big scene depends on diligent running, watching the weather before going to bed.

Every excellent landscape photography is obtained through arduous long journey and baptism of rain, snow and hail. The weather is the most sensitive issue for photographers, so it is most important to master the weather the next day, especially to pay attention to the morning and evening of the next day.

6. There is no good light at noon, but the good light is weak in the morning.

Landscape photography is the most taboo to direct sunlight at noon. Generally speaking, every morning 10 to 3 pm (depending on the time difference in different areas), because the light is too hard, the picture will be too dry and lack of layering.

The best shooting time for landscape photography is every morning and one night. Because of the low color temperature and soft light, in the case of insufficient sunshine, all kinds of scenery are distinct and colorful.

7. Take a camera when it rains, and it will clear up in the evening.

You don't have to take your camera with you in rainy days, especially when the rain stops and it clears up, and there will be unexpected good light. But first you should protect your camera from being warmed up. If it rains at night, it will clear up. The ground that has just rained will reflect light, and it is very transparent, which is most suitable for shooting night scenes. Be sure to master the shooting time, because the shooting time at night is the best.

8. Wonders emphasize the atmosphere, but rain and fog are not enough.

Under the background of special weather conditions and special scenes, unexpected spectacle atmosphere can often be photographed, which is very shocking. Of course, it all depends on luck. Rainy and foggy days don't mean that you can't make good works. Sometimes, in some scenes, the rain and fog in the sky can create a fabulous special artistic conception.

9, check before shooting to sundry, pick up garbage.

The phrase "look at the scenery first, pick up the garbage and then shoot" is particularly important for photographers. Although it is exaggerated, it shows that when shooting a photographic work, try to make the picture simple and clean, so as to avoid the phenomenon of chaotic picture, regardless of theme and distracted guests.

10, key prospect, 3.9 squares.

With proper foreground matching, the picture can be layered, deep and infectious. Losing the foreground position often makes the picture appear empty and unbalanced. Three-point nine-square grid is one of the most basic and commonly used techniques in photographic composition. It divides the picture into four golden points, and the photographs taken with these four points are spiritual.

There are many other composition methods, such as contrast method, symmetry method, S composition method, diagonal composition method and so on.

1 1, polarized light reflects light, with gradually flat contrast.

How to use polarizer or gradient lens correctly is a problem that must be clarified in photography. The characteristic of polarizer is that it can better remove some messy and dazzling reflections in the scene, while gradient lens can balance the contrast of light. Especially when shooting at about 45 degrees from the sun, the gradient mirror can darken the sky, make the sky bluer and white clouds whiter.

12, slow film is added to the outsole, and the tripod cable is released.

General landscape photography uses a small aperture and a large depth of field. Because a small aperture is used, the luminous flux is also reduced, so the shutter speed is relatively slow. Tripod and pay-off are necessary equipment for landscape photography, and hand-held operation is basically impossible.

13, the gray, white and black in the landscape survey should be reduced.

Photometry and exposure are one of the most important operations in landscape photography. The exposure compensation function of digital camera must be adjusted at any time according to the actual scene needs. The so-called "white plus black to reduce" refers to how to control the performance of black and white fields, such as adding exposure compensation when shooting snow, not adding exposure compensation when shooting night scenes, and dimming when it is not reduced.

14, easy to zoom, try to use fixed focus.

Zoom Yi Yaoguang's zoom lens generally refers to some low-grade and low-priced lenses. Now some original high-quality ED lens zoom lenses have basically avoided this problem. As the saying goes, "there is no weakness in fixed focus." In some specific viewing angles and scenes, fixed-focus lens is the first choice, and the picture details are much better than zoom lens.

15, wide-angle heavy theme, telephoto compressed scene

Shooting with wide-angle lens is one of the most common choices in landscape photography, especially for some large scenes, which can make the picture look open and relaxed. It is not enough to shoot some scenes with wide-angle lens, and they are often synthesized in the form of tab.

Because of the characteristics of telephoto lens, it has a certain compression effect on the scene, which is just the opposite of wide-angle lens, especially suitable for shooting long-distance and local close-ups.
