Photographic structure sharing

Lead: Composition is the way to present the concrete structure of formal beauty in a photographic picture, and it is the soul of a photo. When we take a photo, we don't just compose it for the perfect picture effect, but only when we have thoughts or feelings. Composition is a tool of expression, not the ultimate goal.

There are many rules about composition in the market, such as directrix, S-line, three-point line and so on. These things need to be known and practiced, but this is just to provide some reference. In the specific photography creation, we should not let the composition be bound, and boldly try various unconventional angles to make the composition a pleasure, which is more helpful to improve our photography technology.

Below I will talk about my composition experience through these works, hoping to attract more attention.

The following is the picture composition. It is very interesting to form a sharp contrast between the main body and the frame in this way of composition. Brick walls form a picture frame effect, and the uneven arrangement of saplings is like a family portrait of plants, which is in sharp contrast with brick walls in shape and color. The slightly blurred tower in the distance brings a sense of space.

This is the framework of space division. The perspective of ultra-wide lens brings two layers of space into the picture at the same time. Different from the general composition method, space division can have multiple themes at the same time, such as the famous Liulichang of Mark Lyu3 bu4. The two themes of my photos: billboards and girls, form an ideological echo and explain the environmental atmosphere of the art industrial park. At the same time, the use of ultra-wide lens exaggerates the far-near volume ratio, making the main body smaller and eye-catching, and the screen volume, color, border and wall trapezoid form a contrast.

Photographic composition does not have to follow certain rules, and sometimes chaos can also produce certain aesthetic feeling. This photo is a sculpture by an artist. What is its attraction? Chaos? . I use the method of multiple exposures to make the whole picture and color more messy, thus creating a sense of beauty with disordered space.

Many people will meet in front of the glass and have a narcissistic souvenir when they take a group photo outside. This is also a selfie, can't you see it? I use a single handset, continuous shooting mode, and shoot while walking, which effectively avoids the dull and closed feeling of the picture. The white fence and my movements form the feeling of passers-by, which is much more interesting than taking selfies from the front like an orangutan fiddling with a camera.

When you are tired of shooting beautiful women and tired of aesthetics, you might as well go to the streets to find some interesting coincidences and try to freeze the picture with interesting angles. This photo was taken upside down between two tall buildings with an ultra-wide lens. What kind are there? Weightlessness? Effect, as well as diagonal vertical composition, to make the picture perspective impact stronger. Coincidentally, chimneys and clouds emerging from chimneys became the center of interest.

Pointing the lens directly at the end of the corridor is just a general and boring way of composition. The design of foreground oil painting makes the picture come alive and better explains the environment. At the same time, ultra-wide lenses are good at creating dramatic effects and exaggerating perspective.

The color contrast of a large area of color blocks can also create a strong visual impact. Under the super wide-angle lens, the cool blue sky and warm red wall, coupled with diagonal composition, form a clearer perspective effect. It's a pity that the sun didn't shine on the red brick wall, otherwise the atmosphere would be stronger.

It just said some so-called ideas. In fact, composition is more of a concept, which depends on the individual's personality characteristics and aesthetic tendency, and more on the usual accumulation, while shooting is often subconscious, so there will be a variety of works with distinctive personalities. I hope everyone can boldly integrate their own personality and emotions when shooting and shoot distinctive works.
