Photographic framing technique

When taking photos, how can I take good photos? This is the photo framing and composition technique I brought to you. I hope it will help you.

Photographic framing composition skills three-point composition method (golden section ratio method)

There is an elegant classical ratio in the field of art and architecture, which is called the golden ratio. This ratio value is called 0.6 18. And this proportion, we use the composition technique in outdoor photography to control the proportion of heaven and earth at 1: 2 or 2: 1, which can make the photos have strong aesthetic value and broad visual impact.

Symmetric synthesis method

When shooting the beautiful scenery with reflection in the water, we often use the method of symmetrical composition to keep the intersection of the real scene and reflection at the center line of the camera, which can show a sense of balance and stability, especially in the warm and quiet evening atmosphere, which has a different kind of beautiful effect.

Far-small near-large synthesis method

When you meet a scene with a wide field of vision, you can make good use of the composition method of far small and near large.

Through the double reverse support of distance and small size, the picture is vast and monotonous.

Near-far synthesis method

In the plateau area, you will encounter some shallow lakes or rivers, all of which are stony, and at the same time, the broad vision gives the scenery a visual aesthetic impact!

So how do we show these beautiful scenery? Here we can use some composition tips: for example, using a super wide-angle lens to approach and lower the horizontal shooting, highlighting the width of the lake; The stones at the near end are arranged naturally, and then extend upward, setting off the distant scenery and giving the photo a sense of space.

Picture balance composition method

When a photographic work needs to be presented, it needs a sense of visual balance, that is, the center of gravity cannot be left or right.

Take the following figure as an example. If the stones in the circle are covered, all the water will rush down, which will give us a feeling of dizziness and a little feeling of the picture flowing away. At this time, adding a big stone to the running water will increase the harmony of the picture.

Linear synthesis method

Some pictures are messy at first glance, but they can leave a deep impression on people.

As shown below, in the colorful red leaf forest, the straight-growing trunk stands out from the crowd. Although it is a bit complicated, it does give people an impression of being orderly.

Curve synthesis method

There are chaos and order in linear composition, and of course there are picture rhythms created by curve composition. Curved composition is mainly used to photograph rivers, endless roads and guardrails, jagged coastlines or ridgelines. With the natural extension of the curve, the appearance is integrated into the picture.
