A compulsory course for photographers

Mastering a software technology and getting the best photos in a digital darkroom (that is, on a computer) requires careful polishing. Whether you want to "photograph" or "create pictures", this is a very important skill, which can make you better control your own works and make your photos the best. To do this, you need to choose an editing software and then learn how to play its full potential. Of course, this does not mean buying the most expensive and professional, but choosing the one that best suits your interests and needs. Mastering a software skillfully can make you confident in the early shooting.

There are many photography skills that are proficient in one skill, just like books in the world, which can't be read in a lifetime, and photography skills are endless. As a photographer, it's certainly a good thing to master more and better skills, but remember, you can't have too many but not too good. You must have a personal skill that can be easily acquired as a killer. Every time you make a move, there will be a result. Poco has many such photographers, such as shooting macro-ecological herring and liquid sculpture guiguzi. They are all excellent photographers with many abilities, so whether it is fresh air, macro, light painting, underwater or black-and-white documentary, you must have your own unique skills.

It is easy to take the same photos over and over again in a fixed way, but the progress of work means that you need to constantly improve your creative style. You need to be interested in new things, such as new workflow and how they affect your creation. Rejecting "evolution" will make it difficult for you to "survive" and eventually lose interest in photography. If you want to make continuous progress in photography, you need to keep innovating.

Learning other people's works in an isolated environment rarely improves one's artistic level. Other people's works are the key to help you form your own style and improve your skills. Take some time to look at other people's works every day and think about how they create in their works and how you can reproduce this effect. It is very important for modern photographers to learn to keep in touch with other photographers online and in real life. Social networking sites, Weibo and personal space are all good tools for online sharing and discussion. Interacting with other photographers is an excellent way to learn new things, expose you to new shooting opportunities and equipment, and help you re-examine your works.

The last and most important thing is to practice basic skills. You need to know composition, exposure and how to maximize camera performance. No matter what kind of camera you have, it is difficult to take good photos if you really don't know how to use it. Read the instructions carefully and learn how to use the camera. Learn the concepts of depth of field, focus ratio and shutter speed. These things may be a bit boring to do, but they will help you understand how to create the picture you want. Besides, these are the fastest ways to improve your photography.
