14 vulgar photography tips to pay attention to

Some ideas are wonderful when the first person does it and the second person follows. It's not fresh anymore. If the whole world has done this, and you still do it ... What is terrible is that in this era of image flooding, more people are willing to repeat those scenic spots and those formula photos.

If the invention of photography is to reproduce the reality, then one of the most important tasks of photography at present should be to explore the unknown field of vision and further develop people's visual perception. Let's take the following vulgar photography tips as lessons and show your unique vision in future photography creation!

Ok, let's enter the 14 list of vulgar photography tips!

14. lenses, books and heart-shaped patterns

It may be fun for a few seconds at first sight, and then what? I won't. Come on, this clever trick has long been dead. Fortunately, the red lens is used at the end of the above picture, which adds a little interest, but those so-called romantic pictures of opening the Bible with wedding fingers are not romantic at all, too artificial and too old-fashioned.

13. Easy chair in the corridor

Everyone can see that you want to take pictures of nostalgia and grandfather's feelings, but why do you want to repeat this picture which is already a formula? Besides, too many people, like the picture above, have messy photos and poor composition, which not only lacks creativity, but also lacks the aesthetic feeling of basic photography, thanks to your complacency.

12. Landmarks and perspectives

Hey, do me a favor. The scenery in the distance looks fine. Just pretend to hold it with your hands, eat it with your mouth, and step on it with your feet … and so on. Can't you think of other interesting shooting methods? This kind of photo can only arouse the interest of primary school students. Why do you take it again and again?

1 1. It was and it is today.

The first person who comes up with it is a genius, such as ZeFrank, but after a few years, if you are still shooting with the trend and don't add any elements, I'm sorry, your photos are actually nothing special. In fact, we are not interested in seeing what you looked like when you were a child, no matter how cute you are, but who would like this old-fashioned feeling of copying with the wind?

10. Food photos

How to shoot? Slightly random placement, sufficient light, high-speed shutter, shallow depth of field, close to food, slightly overexposed ... Food pictures all over the world are like this, all about diet. Websites take pictures like this. Can anyone come up with new ideas?

9. There is one color left.

Once upon a time, it was a computer art skill, which was used to emphasize the function of something, but now even the lowest-level camera (or iPhone application) can do it, so there are thousands of women who only painted their lips, or millions of black and white photos with a little red.

8. Long exposure to running water

It is one thing for a novice photographer to do this, but it is extremely disappointing for countless professional photographers to do the same trick. Yes, many companies will spend money to buy these long-exposure photos and hang them in the office. Running water and waterfalls look like a soft fog. But when you became a professional, you had countless new ideas, and now you are still shooting these dirty works. What's the matter?

7. Beautiful girl with flowers

I understand that if a beautiful woman agrees to be your model, your head may have been blocked and you can't think of any good theme, but isn't it careless to find a flower to make her look cute? She is a human being and a living model. Finding her merits and qualities is definitely better than taking a flower.

6. Random re-exposure

This kind of shooting technique, which has existed since Pangu, is good, and many experts will use it, but more people just use it to cover up empty and tasteless content, and use gorgeous techniques to cover up subjects without content (even just ps), deceiving themselves.

5. Happy Lomo, unhappy Lomo

Drink a cup of noodles, drink a cup of Starbucks, pass by the mailbox, see the bus, take all kinds of shit with Lomo camera, and take boring photos of Lomo color on facebook. Do you feel very good?

Supporting the leaning tower of Pisa

Enough! Enough! It's a bit like 12, but it's worth opening another column. When you come to the Leaning Tower of Pisa one day, you may want to take a photo to support it. When you look back, you will find that hundreds of people are doing the same stupid thing. Stupid enough?

3. Long exposure trams

Use long exposure to shoot lights and vehicles on the road ... such photos abound, and there are millions of similar works around the world. What's the point? It's not new at all.

2. Pseudo axis shifting in 2.Photoshop

Shifting the lens can reduce the real world to a small model photo, which can be very interesting. But more people use the Gaussian blur of ps, and the adjustment is also shoddy, because it is difficult to compare the depth of field with the real lens with ps, just like the above picture, I don't know what it means.

HDR under 1.

It was originally an interesting technology, which showed the exquisiteness and color level of things by combining photos with different exposure levels. This is a technology with high skill, high knowledge and high endurance. But now there are too many works using "automatic HDR", and the result is disgusting and sloppy. It is sad that such an interesting technology has become such a low-level composite photo.

Summary:

Although the above criticism is not rigorous or radical, it does represent the voices of many people, and it is only the most direct and intuitive evaluation from the perspective of an ordinary person. Of course, this will cause the photographer's disgust and denial, but ask yourself if you have thought about these problems. When we hear the voice of doubt, the first reaction should not be to block and refute, but to reflect. Before each shooting, we might as well think about whether we can always improve the level of our works with new angles, new interpretations and new technologies and encourage each other.
