How is the glare produced in photography? How to take beautiful photos under strong light?

1. Glare is the simplest and most difficult thing for us when shooting against the sun. Glare will reduce the contrast and color effect, and it will also cause unpredictable patterns when the light passes through the whole photo, which is exactly the pleasure of the photosensitive element burning against the sun.

2. Glare is mainly caused by non-imaging light from bright light source entering the lens. For example, when shooting, if the sun happens to be in the frame or not, it will cause excessive glare. Therefore, it is necessary to effectively control the brightest exposure part and put it in the most reasonable picture position.

The easiest way to avoid too much uncontrollable glare is to add a hood to prevent those scattered lights from entering the lens. It is important that you always clean your lens and all the filters to ensure that they are clean. Because dust, fingerprints and so on will increase the risk of glare, especially when shooting directly at the sun.
