Introduction of sunset shooting skills

Throughout the ages, many writers and poets have moved out of their homes, and their ambitions are hard to pay. When they saw the golden sunset on the horizon, they suddenly thought of their own situation and their hearts were full of happy sentences.

"Seeing the sun, though glorious, is buried in the coming night" means helplessness. At that time, some scholars expressed their feelings about the sunset. Now, times have changed, and we have a new view of sunset. "Go and see the sun, even if it is brilliant, even if it is near dusk."

Seeing such a spectacular sunset, we can't help but pick up the camera in our hands and leave this beautiful scene, but the result is often unsatisfactory. At this time, we always complain about how our mobile phone checks pixels and how dim the light is.

In fact, this is not the main reason, mainly because you haven't found the skills yet. Then, next, let's learn some photography skills of shooting sunsets with Bian Xiao!

First, try to shoot in a sunny and cloudy evening.

Try to shoot in a sunny and cloudy evening, so that you can shoot a picture of afterglow. The clouds in the sky will make your sunset glow more beautiful.

Secondly, adjust to Av and set the aperture to F8~F 16.

Adjust to Av file (if your camera doesn't have Av file, you can adjust to P file, skip this step and go directly to step 3), and set the light between F8 and F 16.

Third, set the sensitivity to 100~400.

Set the sensitivity to 100~400. Low sensitivity can make your photos less noisy, better and more delicate, and avoid rough effects.

Fourth, it is best to use spot metering.

If your camera can't change the metering mode, there is no need to look down, just shoot.

If you can choose, change the focus mode of the camera to central single-point focus, and change the metering mode to spot metering.

After the setting is completed, press the shutter to focus on the clouds around the sunset, and you can get the sunset effect as shown below. I think this effect can better highlight the wonderful artistic conception of "seeing the sun, despite its glory, being buried in the coming night".

pay attention to

After adjusting to the central focus, don't face the building or the sun, or the whole picture will appear too bright or too dark.

Ok, have you mastered the skills? "When the sun sets, heartbroken people are in the horizon", or "a westerly wind blows away the rain, and the sunset still shines on the water", or "I want to embrace the sunset and fly away". Mastering these skills, you can shoot such an artistic conception.
