What kinds of shadows are there?

Shadows are divided into three categories: high-key, low-key and medium-key.

High-profile is based on bright colors, giving people a clear, clean and soft visual effect. The premise of high-profile is brightness, so you need the right light and the right environment. When shooting high-profile photography, if you are outdoors, you must shoot in sunny weather. When shooting a portrait or subject, you can brighten the background and then expose the subject. Because the subject has his back to the light, there will be obvious backlight phenomenon. At this time, the exposure of 1-2 can be increased to obtain the correct exposure.

Low-key photography rarely uses the function of exposure compensation in the shooting process, unless the light at the scene is low, we need to increase exposure compensation to make the photos clear and stable. Low-key photography has weak visual impact, but the main body is more prominent.

The visual effect between high-key and low-key is middle key. The color contrast of midtones is small, and the image levels are rich. The alto picture is rich in layers and is the first choice for shooting tones.

When shooting halftone photography, the photographer needs to control the exposure and appropriately depress the brighter areas of the picture, so that the overall brightness of the picture tends to be balanced, and there will be no areas that are too bright or too dark.

Photography begins with observation, and what you see in front of you is fixed on the picture. Every photographer has his own unique skills. Throughout the whole picture, the photographer can determine the tone in combination with the feelings he wants to express, and combine the exposure to convey the content of the picture.
