The difference between fixed-point photography and ordinary photography

In the same scene, most ordinary people first see the scene and then take pictures of what they see. Photographers, especially those with high professional quality, often form the final shooting effect in their minds according to the scene, and then decide the composition, exposure and technique according to the shooting effect they want. I think the final gap will be reflected in the following main aspects.

First, I saw its fragments.

1, constitute

I think the most direct embodiment of this gap is framing, because the composition directly determines the performance of the subject. I have seen too many films shot by ordinary people and photographers in the same scene. First of all, many ordinary people are not good at composition, or a few ordinary people know the rules of composition, but they just follow the rules and lack guidance on the performance of the subject.

2. light

Photographers know what kind of light is good, what kind of light is suitable for what subject, or have a precise grasp of light. Most ordinary people don't have this kind of consciousness.

Step 3 color

Photography comes from art, and the grasp of color will also be reflected in the works. Photographers will eliminate interference colors and enhance colors that are helpful to the visual experience through pre-framing and post-modification.

4. Tone

In order to highlight the theme or enhance the visual impression, photographers often pay great attention to the expression of color tones in their works. The level of light and shade, the contrast between reality and reality, and the lightness of hue will make the viewer feel the flow and change of light.

Second, the accumulation behind it.

1 aesthetic

This is the professionalism behind the work. Although a work can't fully reflect an author's aesthetics, the illusory aesthetic concept can be intuitively presented in the work.

Step 2 think

This is also a comprehensive embodiment. Photographic works are like paintings, not just the light and shadow colors expressed in the picture itself. The idea it expresses is also something that a photographic work can bring to the viewer.
