What do you mean by sweeping the street?

Sweeping the street, as a network term, means taking pictures on the street.

It's a term on the forum, which means taking a snapshot of any street with a camera. Its object is in the street, which can be people, things or the scenery on the street. Shooting people is just one of them, and shooting women is also one of them. It is special to shoot a woman in the street, because the object it shoots is easy to touch some ideas, and directly speaking, it is easy to attract people's imagination, so many people think that street shooting is abnormal. "sweeping the street"

Sweeping the street, salesman's term. Refers to a way to open up the market and get familiar with the market in sales.

The origin of this word is

Sweeping streets was actually a profession in the Song Dynasty. There is a passage at the end of the well-thought-out Story of the Old Wulin in the Song Dynasty, which is called "Sweeping the Street": at midnight, there are people holding small lanterns to pick up the remains.

Send cymbals, often get. Ito is also a relic. The midnight snack street is so crowded with people watching the lights and enjoying the moon that many people leave wallets or gold hairpin and pearl earrings. The crowd dispersed and someone took a lamp and went to the street to pick it up. I read it very interesting.

Street sweeping skills

Tip 1: shoot at a fixed point

As long as you stand at the subway exit, the preset parameters of the camera ensure the minimum safety shutter or slow door effect, and then cast a net for people entering and leaving the station. Although the rejection rate may be high, the output rate will be better if the flip screen is used, and it will be more difficult if it is through the LCD screen. Suitable for daytime shooting.

People waiting for traffic lights at intersections will have natural eyes and movements, and it is easy to take unexpected pictures, which will be more dramatic and have a high proportion of emergencies. Therefore, people who have passed the traffic lights can generally wait a few more times to see if there are any pictures worth shooting, depending on whether there are stories in the background. Due to the high moving speed of passers-by, try to focus on the center point to ensure the accurate determination of the picture. Suitable shooting time: you can shoot at night or during the day. At the bus stop, when people waiting for the bus play with their mobile phones or when the car starts, the face in the window is a good embodiment of human nature. At this time, you can selectively choose the right focus to sketch the story. Suitable shooting time: suitable for daytime shooting.

Newspaper shop

Newsstand, people coming and going from newsstand is also a special group. Everyone who stops may have a story and can focus selectively. Suitable shooting time: you can shoot at night or during the day.

Bus stop

Long-distance bus station or railway station square: the people dragging suitcases are also a special group, which will be revitalized and the story of holidays will be stronger. The homesickness or melancholy feeling of lighting cigarettes is rare in cities, and the focus can be based on the needs of the scene. Suitable shooting time: you can shoot at night or during the day.

Tip 2: Shoot while moving.

Simply put, people in the background of the picture are free to shoot while walking or following. Shoot whatever you see (of course, whether there is a story or not is different for everyone, and you should be satisfied in principle). In order to ensure the stability of the picture, even if blind shot is used, it is best to put it on the chest or on the dining table or advertising light box. You can preset parameters for the roads you know in advance. When a suitable subject appears, you can quickly adjust the focal length and shoot with a camera.

In order to improve the success rate of blind shot, try to open the full aperture, otherwise you will regret not pressing the shutter. So whether the mode should use M file, AV file or P file, I want to say it is convenient for you. Personally, it is not recommended to move the blind shot with the M file, because sometimes the time for the subject to come and shoot is really between 1-2 seconds. When you set the parameter to focus, the subject may have left. I think other AV, TV and P can be used properly. At any time, the camera is just a shooting tool. Don't let it affect your mind. Flexible use. All settings are mainly based on taking pictures, not shooting large movies. Where did you get so many big movies to shoot for you?

Suitable for scenic spots: all road conditions, all weather, unlimited time.
