Basic concepts and visual concepts of landscape photography

Lead: Although it is better to shoot the scenery, it is easy to have the same situation, especially the scenic spots, and it is even more difficult to shoot a different feeling. Let's take a look at the basic composition of landscape photography with everyone.

1. Use the foreground to enhance the sense of space.

"Foreground" is an important element that cannot be ignored in landscape photography. When shooting, don't just stare at the subject you want to express, but carefully observe the surrounding environment. Finding a suitable foreground will help to increase the sense of space and depth of photos. If we can reuse the seasonal features and environmental features, we can make the photos more appealing.

2. Choose the right shooting angle

Choosing the most suitable shooting angle according to the shooting theme and performance effect is the key to shooting a good work. This work is shot from the perspective of looking up, and the photographer skillfully uses the sense of perspective to make the trees seem to soar in the sky, highlighting the strong vitality of the trees reaching into the sky.

3. the scenery of the big scene pays attention to leaving white space.

When expressing the vast scenery of this big scene, we must pay attention to leaving enough "blank" for the picture to avoid making the whole picture too full. This kind of space is often called "blank space" and "breathing space", which gives people a refreshing and comfortable feeling.

4. Use reflection to expand expressive force

Reflection can create an interesting visual pleasure for the picture. Dramatic reflections were brought into the picture when shooting by a quiet lake. In a quiet and steady mood, the extension and repetition of the picture will effectively expand the scope and expressiveness. Enabling the camera's baseline function can more accurately grasp the height of the symmetry line.
