How does tree photography compose a picture?

The tall image of the tree should be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Therefore, when shooting trees, it is recommended to use vertical composition, because showing trees vertically in the picture can give trees a sense of vertical extension and give people the feeling of standing and growing.

In addition, if you want to show a stronger sense of rhythm, you can make a slight change when shooting, so that the continuous vertical lines are different in length and you can get different picture effects.

Focal length 18mm/ aperture f 4.5/ shutter speed 1/200s/ sensitivity 100.

The vertical trees give the painting a sense of depth.

50 mm focal length/aperture f 1.8/ shutter speed 1/90s/ sensitivity 100.

(By reducing the exposure compensation, the trees in the picture stand out more.)

Second, the radiation component.

Because radiation composition can enhance the perspective, the visual perspective near the big and far from the small is more likely to form a radial picture, which makes the picture feel very spatial, so it is very suitable for shooting trees.

For example, shooting a number of lines with the feeling of diverging around, the upward visual impact is very strong, the picture looks very spatial, and it also makes the picture full of a sense of rhythm.

The focal length is 4.7mm/ aperture f 5.6/ shutter speed 1/500s/ sensitivity 50.

The towering trees form a radial composition, which makes the picture more tense and has a strong visual effect.

(The tree crowns meet at one point in the center of the picture, forming a bright radial composition)

Three-point composition

Three-point composition is the most commonly used and practical composition method in tree shooting, which can give viewers a sense of visual pleasure and vitality.

When shooting trees, the picture is evenly divided into three parts in the horizontal or vertical direction, and the single tree or the tree to be represented is placed at the position of the three-point line, so that the main body can be highlighted, not as rigid as the main body placed in the middle, giving people a more flexible feeling as a whole, and psychologically forming the effect of combining trees with the background.

Focal length 400mm/ aperture f 5.6/ shutter speed 1/8000s/ sensitivity 1600.

The three-point composition makes the tree stand out in the picture.

Putting trees on the three-point line can better attract the attention of the audience.

It is suggested that the lens should use a hood to avoid glare caused by backlight shooting and affect the picture effect.
