How to shoot a beautiful peach blossom with a mobile phone?

In spring and March, the spring in the north is finally warm. Recently, I have seen peach blossoms in bud one after another. If I count, within a week, all the peaches will be in a mess.

Partners can meet together to "walk in the peach blossom"!

Then the question is, how to shoot beautiful peach blossoms with your mobile phone and laugh over your circle of friends?

Xiaoyue has compiled some folk flower-patting skills and mastered 6 tricks, which will definitely make your "peach blossom" extraordinary.

First, pay attention to the flowering period:

If you want to shoot peach blossoms well, you must first master the local flowering period. The opening of peach blossoms is related to the temperature, usually in March-April, and the flowering period is about 10 days.

The best time to shoot is to have buds to put, and when half of them are in full bloom, the picture can be enriched.

Second, grasp the shooting time:

After mastering the flowering period, we should also grasp the shooting time and try to avoid the noon time, which is easy to overexpose and make the flowers pale without the level and detail of petals.

You can choose around 7: 00 a.m. 7:00- 10/0 or 3:00-5:00 p.m. When the light is soft, the layers of flowers can be represented by light and shadow.

Third, choose the right "scene", second praise:

Even if it's a mobile phone, don't shoot it casually, but also have a choice of theme, background or prospect.

1- Shili Taolin is not as good as a peach blossom;

Shoot peach blossoms with your mobile phone to avoid shooting large peach blossoms. It is easy to reverse the details and the picture is too messy.

Try to take a close-up of one or several flowers, but it will show the freshness and beauty of details of peach blossoms.

2- Clean and concise background:

If you want to better set off the peach blossoms, try to choose a clean and uncluttered background (such as blue sky), or borrow some edges and walls of buildings as the background.

Fourth, skillfully use "composition":

For partners who don't have a photography foundation, you can try these two composition methods by shooting peach blossoms with your mobile phone:

1- trigonometry (Jiugongge) composition:

The most commonly used triangular composition (nine squares) for mobile phone photography is very suitable for taking peach blossoms.

Try to put the flowers on the "point of interest" where the three-point line intersects. This is the best visual position and can make the whole picture more beautiful.

How to open the three-point grid line of mobile phone?

Many partners may not know that our mobile phone comes with a grid line, just unlock it in the settings (take iphone as an example, the settings are as follows).

2- "Blank" component:

It is said that "photography should be subtracted", and blank composition also conforms to this point. Generally speaking, the picture is left blank in a large area, simple but not simple, and the overall feeling is more elegant.

Five, mobile phone+macro, shooting details:

Nowadays, mobile phone photography is very powerful, and many mobile phone lenses have their own macro function, so we can use it more to capture the delicate picture of peach blossoms.

1- Use macro function of mobile phone:

Note when shooting macro:

Try to get close to the subject, don't use the mobile phone to focus automatically, point your finger at the stamen, and repeatedly click on the screen of the mobile phone to ensure clarity.

2- Mobile phone+external macro lens:

If you want to shoot more detailed flowers (such as "Flower Blossom", you need to connect a macro lens with your mobile phone), you can shoot a SLR-like effect.

The above two photos were taken with a mobile phone and an external macro lens, and the details of the stamen can be clearly seen. A treasure has many macro lenses 15 times, the price ranges from tens to hundreds, and the effect is similar.

Sixth, create "artistic conception":

There is a joke-there is not enough in the early stage, and we will come back later.

In the later stage of peach blossom photography, there is a method of "darkening the background and making it empty", which can create a simple artistic conception.

Because changing the messy background makes the peach blossom "stand out from the crowd", which is also in line with the "blank" composition we said before.

The method of later blackening and blurring the above background: you can search for "a trick to save photos | skills to blur the blackened background in the later stage of mobile phones", which has specific explanations.
