The photographer's unusual shooting skills

Sometimes a pair of well-trained "photographic eyes" are indispensable for taking good photos. Just like the photo below, with interesting ideas at the right time, it becomes a shocking photo! Do you think it's right?

First, the application of comprehensive skills-reflection+frame composition+interesting points

This is a dazzling photo, which uses several techniques. Students only need to add one by one to shoot. Let's study it together now!

1. Shoot the reflection in the water

When light hits the water, it will reflect the reflection. When shooting, we might as well add reflections to the photos to increase visibility. Usually we can take a reflection with a slow shutter, but be careful, there is a father and son walking in this photo. If we use slow shutters, they will become blurred, so we can only shoot at normal speed at this time. If the water is calm and dark enough, the reflection will be as clear as before.

Shoot patterns and textures

Because the building has repeated textures, we can make a composition of shooting textures, but we should pay attention to the photographer's clever placement of some unpolluted columns around the photo to form a "frame composition" to make the "main body" in the middle more prominent!

3. Add an interesting point to the photo

If you only shoot the building itself, the photo will become blurred, so the photographer put a father and son in the photo to add some life flavor. Remember to wait for the right time when shooting, and we can also learn!

Second, the application of comprehensive skills-telephoto+fill light composition+side light

At first glance, there is a sense of oppression. Sometimes I can take pictures of different feelings with this composition. Let's review our skills!

1. telephoto compressed image

One of the characteristics of long-focus shooting is that it will eliminate the sense of distance and space, that is, there is no distance between houses, and everything seems to be on the same plane. You can try!

Fill in the composition

To shoot a sense of depression, filling composition is very suitable. With telephoto shooting, the subject can easily fill the picture!

3. Side light shooting texture

If you look carefully, the room in this photo is bright and dark, because the sun shines from the upper right corner, and we can shoot it in the morning or at dusk, which will have this effect and make the room more textured.

Third, one move is fresh-slow door shooting

When we go to the playground, we often see the Ferris wheel. In addition to shooting during the day, it is strongly recommended that you shoot the Ferris wheel at night! Let's see what skills we have in taking this photo!

1. Slow shutter shooting motion.

I believe many students also know that the slow shutter can "draw" the light track on the photo, similar to "light and shadow graffiti light?" The painting technique is very similar. Just slow down the shutter and let the photo be exposed for a long time! It's like this photo was exposed for 25 seconds.

2. Aperture and ISO settings

Because we have to shoot with a slow shutter, according to the actual situation at that time, the aperture should be smaller. Similarly, ISO can be adjusted to the lowest level to maintain the quality of photos. F/8- 16 is a suitable aperture, which also helps to deepen the depth of field and is used to shoot night scenes.

3. Adjust the white balance to make the photo blue.

If you want the photos to have a sense of science fiction, you can consider adjusting the white balance to "tungsten lamp" or customizing a lower k number, so that the photos will tend to be cool. Even if the color of the Ferris wheel is yellow, the images will have a blue effect.

Four, a recruit fresh-comparative composition

When you are traveling or attending a celebration, you usually see crowds, so how do you take pictures at this time? Let's refer to the shooting method of this photo, which is also a very common and not difficult technique! How to take this photo?

1. Use contrast composition

Composition is not just as simple as placing the subject. To make the subject stand out or express some key points, we can try to use the "contrast composition method". Contrast composition can be size, color, distance, etc. The expressions and actions of objects and even characters, like this photo, use different actions to achieve the focus effect.

2. The depth of field should not be too shallow

In order to achieve outstanding effect, we need some repeated patterns. If the depth of field is too shallow, the effect will be diluted.
