Photographic skills of Qinghai tourism How to photograph Qinghai tourism?

Many people go to Qinghai to take photos, especially the natural scenery of Chaka Salt Lake. The environment in Qinghai is very good, unlike a gray city. Although a good environment is very conducive to taking pictures, there are still many things to pay attention to in shooting skills, and the most important thing in taking pictures is the weather. Be sure to see it, or it will rain when you go out.

1, shoot the sunrise

When taking landscape photos, using a small aperture will make the picture clearer and more transparent. A small aperture will make stars appear in the sun, but the sky outside is darker at sunrise, which exceeds the safety shutter.

Hand-held shooting will shake, so use a tripod at this time; If there is a cable release, there is no self-timer mode;

Try to choose center metering and average metering. Don't look at the sun, look at the surrounding clouds (or the sky slightly above). You can turn on exposure compensation, just use automatic or daylight white balance.

If the light in Qinghai Lake is very strong, you should lower the aperture by one level when taking pictures. The angle should not be too close to the lake, and the lake and the coast are distributed in proportion. The general foreground can occupy one-third or one-half of the picture. The best angle of sunrise is the moment when the sun just rises above the sea level, and it is also the moment when the sun just shines. It is necessary to judge the trajectory of the sun in advance. According to photometry, the aperture is below f 1 1, the shutter is about 5s, and the focal length is above 9.

Step 2 shoot the starry sky

Because the stars are moving, the exposure time against the starry sky should not be too long, about 15s, and the starlight is weak, so the aperture should be large, f3.2 or f2.8, and the sensitivity should be improved to iso6400. The wider the lens, the better. Fisheye lens, wide-angle fixed focus and wide-angle zoom are all good choices, and the best focus should be between 14mm focus and 35mm focus.

If you shoot the star track, the exposure time will be longer, and other light sources should be prevented from entering. There are two methods to choose from when shooting the orbit of a star: one is single exposure shooting, and the other is superposition shooting after multiple exposures. It is recommended to use multiple exposures to obtain better selectivity.

The best time to shoot the starry sky is summer and early autumn, because the starry sky lasts for a long time and the moon rises late in this season, so it will not affect the light of the stars. The best time is between 10 in the afternoon and 2 midnight. Shoot the starry sky and orbit, be absolutely meticulous about the weather, and ensure that Wan Li is clear and Wan Li is cloudless. The weather is transparent and there is no smog.

3. Photographic skills about composition:

Three-point composition: Simply put, the horizontal lines in the picture are placed in the upper and lower third of a photo. If the sky is clear, leave two-thirds of the sky and one-third of the scenery. If the landscape is good, and vice versa.

Central point composition: This composition method is actually very simple. For example, when shooting the sunset in front of the Great Lake, the sun is placed in the center, and the sky and the water surface are a set of symmetrical pictures. The lake will reflect the reflection of the sky, and then the sun is right in the center, which is warm light. The picture is very harmonious under the contrast of cold and warm.

4. Photographic equipment: In Quan Huafu, it is best to bring two SLR lenses, a wide angle, a Jiao Da aperture, a tripod (Bernoulli's is also acceptable) and a cable camera. You can bring ND filter, gradient filter and lens cleaning tool.

5. Photo weather query: It is said that landscape photography depends on the weather, which is absolutely true. Catch up with the extreme weather of rain, sometimes I can't shoot it. It is recommended to check the weather forecast in advance before going to Qinghai, especially the app for forecasting the weather. Now these apps are very powerful, such as cloud cover, atmospheric visibility, atmospheric transparency, gale warning and so on. Can be displayed.

It is very important for the environment, angle and coordination of photography. If you want to take distinctive photos, you still need to study them carefully. The above are the shooting techniques shared with you, and I hope they will help you.
