Composition principle

You must learn to observe the scene and surrounding environment through the lens and choose the best shooting point to get the most satisfactory composition. When framing and composition, you need to pay attention to the following points:

Prominent theme

Before shooting, you should "make up your mind" as before painting, and consider what the picture mainly shows and where the main body is arranged. Then through light, color, line, shape and other modeling means, to achieve the purpose of highlighting the main body.

Visual balance

A photo with a balanced composition can give people a sense of stability and harmony. There are two kinds of balance: symmetric balance and asymmetric balance. Asymmetric balanced combinations are usually more dynamic than symmetric balanced combinations. The size, shape, weight and direction of the scene, as well as the color, have an important influence on the visual balance.

Virtual reality sets each other off.

Virtual reality refers to the clarity and ambiguity between the subject and the foreground and background of space. The technique used is nothing more than hiding the virtual and showing the real, alternating the virtual and the real, and supporting the real with the virtual. Its purpose is to highlight the main body, render the atmosphere and enhance the sense of space depth. Reality mainly represents the subject of the subject; Imagination is mainly to show the subject's companions to set off the subject, which is an important link in the artistic conception of the picture.

Pay attention to the composition of rhythm and melody photography, and the subjects appear alternately in the same or similar form and repeat in order, thus forming rhythm; If the rhythm shows dynamic changes such as lines, comfort, harmony and ups and downs, it becomes a melody, thus making the picture beautiful, lyrical and smooth. Rhythm and melody are important links to deepen the theme, which are included in the contrast and tone of lines, colors and light.

Lightweight application

The success of photography depends largely on the use of light. Light directly affects color and hue, lines and shapes. Therefore, in the same scenic spot, shooting the same scenery, if the light is different, will produce different composition artistic conception and different atmosphere photos.

Guang Shun: The light comes from the front of the scene. There is no shadow in the scene, and the contrast is small. Its colors, lines, shapes and atmosphere can be truly expressed.

Side light: When the light comes from one side of the shooting scene, the scene will produce shadows and contrasts, thus highlighting the shapes, lines and textures, resulting in changeable composition. This is often used in photography.

Backlight: the light comes from the back of the shooting scene, and most of the scene is in shadow, while the strong contour light can outline the clear shape of the object, thus creating a bright and concise picture.

Diffuse light: In this light, the scenery has no obvious contrast, and the color tone is dull and has little change. So the shape, lines and texture of the scenery are not obvious.

Line application

Lines are the skeleton of composition. Any visual work is inseparable from lines. There are usually trees, grass, telephone poles, rivers, waves and so on. Different lines can give people different visual images, for example, horizontal lines can express stability and tranquility, vertical lines can express solemnity and strength, diagonal lines have vitality, vitality and movement, and curves and wavy lines appear weak, leisurely and attractive; Thick line is heavy, thin line is light, thick line is strong, thin line is weak, solid line is static and dotted line is moving, which is used incisively and vividly in composition.

In the changeable weather, the light is changing, so it is necessary to take more films to have enough images for the final choice. Ultraviolet filters can protect lenses from rain and fog, and at the same time minimize the influence of ultraviolet rays in coastal areas and mountainous areas. Lens filters with different colors can produce obvious tonal differences between some colors of the scene.
