How to shoot the red wall well

A good way to take pictures on the red wall is for the photographer to stand opposite the red wall and shoot from top to bottom.

Shooting from top to bottom, the camera is higher than the subject and the lens is tilted downward. Ultra-high angles are usually combined with ultra-far screens to display red walls. It is easy to show the layering and depth of the picture when shooting with panoramic view and medium lens. If you look down from a higher place, you can completely show all the pictures from close range to long range, giving people a vast and broad feeling. The red wall photos taken in this way are the best.

Pay attention to the grasp of lines when shooting red walls, especially Chinese architecture. Red walls, black tiles, cornices, railings and corridors are all guided by lines. When shooting, you can use porches, windows or passages and branches to create a sense of hierarchy. Don't let the picture be too monotonous, add some materials to the picture appropriately, so that the red wall photos taken will look good.

Photography tips

1. When shooting, the camera must be mounted on a tripod to prevent the camera from shaking. Try to keep the camera close to the subject, and be careful not to introduce unnecessary shadows.

2. The focal track can make the camera move along the X-axis and Y-axis in very small increments, and can accurately control the camera position and the depth of field of the picture. It is very troublesome to move the triangular bracket to the ideal position.

3. When shooting, when the background of the shooting object is black, then the shot image can look clearest. You can also use a fuzzy background, especially when the color of the subject is very strong.

4. Wrap it with a white card or aluminum foil to reflect the light on the object and illuminate the shadow on the object. Be careful not to let this card appear in the shooting range.
