Where is suitable for taking pictures in Tibet? What equipment should I bring to take photos in Tibet?

The scenic spots in Tibet are beautiful, but we always have to find a place suitable for taking pictures. Today, Bian Xiao will tell you the places suitable for taking pictures and some equipment that everyone should prepare when taking pictures.

Where to take pictures 1. Namtso

Transportation: It is about 222 kilometers from Lhasa to Namco. There is only a shuttle bus to Dangxiong in Lhasa, but there is no direct bus to Namco. You can choose to charter a car in Lhasa or carpool with a group to go to Namco.

Location: If you want to shoot the starry sky, you must spend the night in Namco. You can enjoy the beautiful Namco starry sky in Zhaxi Peninsula next to Namco. There are many places to stay in Tashi Peninsula, but the facilities are relatively simple. You can enjoy stargazing about 5 kilometers walk from the hotel, but please pay attention to cold and warmth. Since the conjunction of 1 year in July, Venus and Jupiter, which are dazzling on the western horizon, have become farther and farther apart. Looking to the east, the Milky Way gradually emerged in the twilight, and the huge S-shape of Scorpio just appeared over the lake. From September to 10 every year, the Galaxy Center can be seen over Namtso and Nyainqentanglha Mountain. In addition, Namco is not only an excellent place to shoot the starry sky, but also an excellent place to shoot sunsets and sunrises.

2. Everest Base Camp

Transportation: You can't get to Everest Base Camp directly from Lhasa. You need to go from Lhasa to Shigatse first, and then take a bus from Shigatse to the scheduled date. Then, you need to find someone to carpool from the scheduled date to the Rongbu Temple in Everest. After arriving at Rongbu Temple, you can transfer to an eco-car to reach Everest Base Camp.

Location: There is a place near Everest Base Camp where you can spend the night, namely Rongbu Temple, with 30 ~ 45 yuan beds per person, where you can easily watch the starry sky and sunrise. In addition, stay in the tent of Everest base camp in the camp. The tent is an ordinary shop for 6-8 people, which is more suitable for shooting stars. The Rongbu Temple on the north slope of Mount Qomolangma is an excellent shooting location, but you can only enjoy the starry sky on the south side. The starry sky on Mount Everest seems to be within reach, quietly washing, without words. April to May is the best time to shoot the starry sky on Mount Everest every year. After midnight, you can see the Milky Way rising from Mount Everest. Stars emit different colors of light due to different surface temperatures, and stars are blue at high temperatures; The temperature is low and the stars are red.

3. Ren Gang, Qi Bo and Mabang Yongcuo in Ali area.

Transportation: Qi Bo, Ren Gang and Mabangyongcuo are located in Pulan County, Ali District, western Tibet, which are relatively remote. It is about 1600 km from Lhasa to Ganzi Leboqi. It takes at least three days by car from the southern line of Ali. The traffic is inconvenient, so it is recommended to charter or carpool.

Shooting location: There is a temple on the pilgrimage route of Gangrinpoche to provide simple catering and accommodation, or shooting the starry sky based on Tachin (4560m above sea level), the starting point of the southern foot of Gangrinpoche Qi Feng.

1, the plateau has sufficient sunshine and high illumination. General 100 degree medium speed film is enough.

2, the plateau ultraviolet is strong, if you want to make the vision in the photo clearer and avoid blue-purple color photos, it is best to equip your lens with an ultraviolet filter (UV mirror).

Beware of sandstorms, especially in cold and dry seasons and in the morning and evening, sand almost penetrates into the gap between your camera and lens. Be sure to use a camera bag or camera case that is as dustproof as possible.

4, shooting plateau scenery, it is best to choose one night in the morning. In the early morning and evening in Tibet, the light is flat and transparent, and the modeling effect and color effect produced by low-angle sunlight will make the picture more attractive.

5. Put the camera battery in the close-fitting shirt pocket to keep warm at low temperature. If you can't press the shutter, it may be a solution to put the camera in your clothes to warm up before shooting.

Essential items 1, backpacks of 20L or smaller.

Please be sure to carry the system comfortably, because it will stick to your shoulders and back for a long time. The capacity of 20L is enough to hold what I need for a day's activities. What I use most in my daily activities is an Archaeopteryx 18L waterproof lightweight backpack. At most: sunglasses, 1 coat, 1 fleece coat, 1 octopus tripod, 1 SLR, 1 fixed focus lens, 1 small digital camera, 1 big charging treasure, 65438.

Everything in the backpack above is necessary! In the summer of 20 14, there was more rain in Lhasa than in previous years. It often clears up at 9 o'clock after a long night rain. 1 1 It's getting hotter and hotter after midnight (short-sleeved clothes are not cool in summer). It was the hottest at 2-3 pm, and it began to rain at 4-5 pm, and the temperature dropped significantly. You must take a sweater. So you need to bring a carry-on bag of about 20L.

2, waterproof coat or soft shell.

Outdoor clothes with n functions are the most commonly used and the best to use. Whether it is raining, snowing, windy or cold weather, jackets will protect us well. The hard shell coat has the best protection effect, but the better soft shell is also good, and most of the soft shells are very thin. I think many friends wear untidy coats and look bloated. Actually, they can buy a soft shell to wear

3, sunglasses: it is best to wear comfortable and high sunglasses! 4. sunshade

Ultraviolet rays in Tibet are very strong. You should not only use sunglasses to protect your eyes, but also use a hat to keep out the sun. When it rains, the hat can also protect you from the rain. Hats can be bought in Lhasa, and also in ethnic shops in Barkhor Street Mall. 100 yuan (the price of 20 14 years) can buy a nice cowhide hat, which is not only practical and beautiful, but also can be taken home as a tourist souvenir.

5. Long-sleeved T-shirt or long-sleeved shirt (usually worn)

It's best to buy an outdoor T-shirt that can block ultraviolet rays. A T-shirt with good elasticity can not only be comfortable to wear, but also protect the skin from the sun. It can also be used as an intermediate warm layer when it rains.

Step 6 grab the sweater

You should buy a light and warm sweater. Decathlon or domestic brands will do. I prefer TNF sweater, which is light and warm!

7.octopus tripod

The artifact of photography lovers, this thing is very practical, but it is not very easy to use. The main reason for taking it is that it is light and can be taken out at any time. The specific advantages and disadvantages will be explained in the photography section of this post.

8, SLR camera or micro single camera

When traveling necessities, lenses in the bag and other items are put together, you need to pay attention to a bag, which is moistureproof and dustproof. As a backup machine, a small digital camera can also be replaced by a mobile phone. Remember to download those useful filter apps in advance!

9, large capacity charging treasure

No explanation! Absolutely necessary, necessary, necessary!

10, vacuum flask

How much depends on personal situation. If you can drink water well, it is recommended to bring a size of1L. In most cases, a person can bring a 500ML water cup. Everyone knows to drink more water after going to the plateau. In fact, we think you should drink more hot water+hot tea and try to reduce cold water, because your body needs it more, and it is obviously more comfortable after drinking hot water+hot tea. In addition, there are Sichuan restaurants all over Tibet. If you can't stand eating spicy food or curry three times a day like me, you have to bring a thermos. Cooking utensils or like seals are very good. You should buy one with a lid that can be used as a water cup, so that you can drink hot water after meals to help digestion. Friends who don't think it is necessary to bring an insulated kettle suggest buying an outdoor metal kettle, so that it won't leak if the bottle body is tightened. Because sometimes the cup should be put in the bag, and once it leaks, other things in the bag will suffer.

1 1，cap

Buy good-looking, lightweight radiation protection, one is sun protection, and the other is to improve the force.

12, 1 cent change

It's for the temple. No one can change in the temple. Those bundles of 1 50 minutes in the temple are all for this purpose. Just change it directly. Don't be embarrassed.

13, high-calorie food

In Tibet, the roof of the world, walking at ordinary times is equivalent to carrying loads in the mainland, and energy consumption is very fast. It is best to bring chocolate, Snickers or dried yak meat to replenish energy at any time. Other sharp tools to help you revive with blood are butter tea, glucose water, American ginseng buccal tablets and one of the earliest drinks in Tibet-Red Bull (knock a bottle if you are thirsty or hungry! )

14, other clothes

Thin down jacket: Uniqlo's thin down jacket is particularly practical and inexpensive, and outdoor brands are better.

Sweating underwear: it is best not to bring thermal underwear. Cotton thermal underwear is tightly wrapped around the body after sweating, which is not easy to dry, especially the thermal underwear with velvet inside, which does not absorb sweat or sweat at all, the worst.

Wool pants or fleece pants?

Wear comfortable sneakers or outdoor cross-country running shoes (cross-country running shoes are recommended). If you plan to go to Ali or have a hiking part in your itinerary, you must buy high-top waterproof hiking shoes.

Fleece sleeping bag: very practical. If the quilt in the hotel is wet or dirty or not warm enough, you will be especially grateful that you brought a wool sleeping bag.

15, drugs

Prepare a small medicine bag separately and bring enough medicine for your special needs. Other commonly used drugs can be bought in Lhasa. For example, if you have a headache when you have a high fever, you can eat triamcinolone acetonide or Gao Yuan 'an, which can be bought in Lhasa. So drugs don't need to refer to other people's advice, just decide for yourself. I only recommend one thing: multivitamins, one tablet a day is too useful.

16, sunscreen skin care products

Buy it yourself in advance, and it must be commonly used.

17, other-please ask the supermarket to solve it.

Most daily necessities can be bought in Lhasa. After the opening of the Qinghai-Tibet Railway, there are more and more supermarkets in Lhasa, and the goods are greatly enriched. It doesn't matter if you leave and find that you haven't brought n kinds of things. You can buy almost all of them in Lhasa.

The preparation of equipment and articles is a very scientific and complicated part, and it is difficult to say it all at once. My suggestion is that friends must adjust the prepared articles according to the specific routes and seasons. There is no omnipotent equipment, only smart preparation. For example, going to Tibet for the first time in summer and taking the route in Linzhi direction is very simple, enough, or even more. Take the Ali Dabei Line in early autumn, and be sure to prepare a standard sleeping bag with a comfortable temperature of zero and a thick down jacket.
