Matters needing attention in landscape photography

Lead: There are many shooting skills and precautions to master in landscape photography. To achieve a perfect picture, you must master it. Let me give you a list of matters needing attention in landscape photography. Let's have a look!

Notes on landscape photography 1. Excavate the uniqueness of the landscape itself.

If the picture presented to the world is not unique, it will certainly not attract everyone's attention. Another possibility is that the scenery is unique, but the picture has been widely used by various media for decades, so it is not unique. Huangshan is a typical one? Turn a blind eye? Examples of. Therefore, ordinary photographers go deep into no man's land in order to find a brand-new feeling.

Discovering the uniqueness of the landscape itself is not only a discovery of scenery that people have never seen before, but also a process of discovery. Take Huangshan Mountain as an example. Different weather conditions and light and shadow can capture unique pictures different from those seen by ordinary people. So for decades, Huangshan can still have good films, but it is difficult to shoot them every year. Nowadays, people who shoot Huangshan Mountain are looking for the unique scenery behind the snow when it is snowing heavily. Discovering the wonders that have never been encountered in shooting is also the greatest pleasure of landscape photography. In other words, the excavation of the uniqueness of landscape photography is also a process of discovery, which can bring infinite fun to photographers and is also an important driving force for photographers to engage in landscape photography.

Landscape photography can also explore the relationship between landscape and people. The relationship between people and the environment is diversified, which brings a unique interpretation to landscape pictures. This is also a highlight of landscape photography, which makes people have a unique association after watching it, and the work is also a successful masterpiece. Of course, it can also be extended to' scenery' with other themes such as urban scenery. Away from the scenery is a rigid thinking mode of mountains and rivers.

2. Pay attention to the details of the scene itself

The details of the scenery can be animal hair, an autumn leaf or a 100-mile-long river crossing the earth. Focus only on what you want to focus on. This concern actually involves discovery. For example, the texture of rocks, if properly performed, can make people feel that it takes a long time, and a photo that can take time will definitely impress readers. For example, the cracked lines on the trunk of Hu Yangmu seem to tell the harsh local natural environment, and these details play an important role in the picture.

In addition to discovering these important details in the early stage of shooting, we also need to create details in the post-production. It is a bit exaggerated to express them with creation, but in post-production, we will enlarge the important details of the previous shooting to make it more perfect. I don't admire a shooting idea, that is, using huge frames to create for getting more detailed information of the picture. Because of this heavy equipment, the radius and thinking of creation will be bound.

3. Take photos with a photo frame.

Because of the perfect camera imaging, the photographer forgot his role. Even in China, there appeared a photographer who compared the scenery of the camera imaging lens, missed the beautiful scenery and forgot his role and position in shooting the scenery. A good photographer has different shapes and sizes of frames in his eyes. When he observes the scenery, he finds the beauty in the scenery with such different pictures in his mind. This is the difference between photographers and ordinary players, and it is also the embodiment of photographers' subjective initiative.

In landscape photography, we pay more attention to the main scenes and pictures with sufficient information. Because the expansion of the scene is inevitably not conducive to the refinement of the theme, the combination of large scenes and local shooting methods is in line with our pursuit. When shooting a scene in a place that is not suitable for changing the shooting point, the shooting method of combining large scene with local area can be adopted. A large scene is a large enclosure composed of lenses with relatively short focal length. This big encirclement is usually placed at the best moment of light and shadow. Press the shutter. Later, you can shoot with a medium telephoto lens, which is also back to the framework mentioned earlier.

4. Unique shooting angle

There are many mature shooting spots in famous shooting places in China, and people flock to them. There are many films like this. Can we look at the scenery from another angle? The most effective angle of landscape photography is high-altitude photography. From the perspective of birds, the scenery must be different from what you see every day. Taking Xiapu scenery as an example, Xiapu scenery stands out in the long coastline of China because there are a large number of low mountains around Xiapu Beach, and these low mountains, mainly granite, have become places for thousands of photographers to have a bird's eye view of the beach. Unconventional views make the works magnificent and beautiful.

5. Pay attention to the tone tendency of the work

The hue of landscape works is the first feeling in the overall impression of the works, and it is also the most important and unavoidable factor in the picture composition. When determining the brightness and color tendency of photos according to the needs of picture performance, we must first determine the tone and contrast of the picture, and then control the color tendency. Before sunrise, the color of the sky is mainly blue, then there may be rosy clouds in the sky, then it will turn red, then yellow, and finally it will be over-colored. The change of the sky at sunset is another inverse process. According to this rule, the color of the work can be adjusted. Do you think so? Color cast? It is a trick to make the picture infectious and unique. It is worth noting that over-rendering leads to inaccurate post-production, too high saturation and too high contrast.
