How to shoot Populus euphratica

One: One: Shadow effect of trees Light is a brush in photography. In the actual shooting process, we should not only discover and capture the projection and change of light, but also express the shape and texture of the object with light, and at the same time emphasize the existence of "shadow", which is the real art of light and shadow. When shooting in a well-lit forest, you will find a lot about the instantaneous state of shadows. The expression of shadows can not only faithfully reflect the existence of trees, but also eliminate unnecessary interference elements in the picture by expressing shadows alone. Photographers should pay attention to the choice of shooting angle when shooting. When representing trees and shadows at the same time, we should grasp the projection direction of light, thus showing the three-dimensional sense of the picture; When expressing the shadows of trees or branches alone, we should pay attention to the corresponding relationship between light and shadow, and at the same time give people more associations about forests in an abstract way. Of course, the photographer also needs to determine the correct exposure value according to the actual shooting situation. When the light is relatively large, in order to preserve the texture and details of the background, the exposure compensation function can be properly used to adjust the exposure. Two: correct exposure. Controlling exposure is the key to shooting in the forest. Overexposure will make the color of the scene dim, and underexposure will make the color of the scene look pale and dim, so you can't take the leaves that are penetrated by the sun as the exposure basis when shooting, because it will backlight the trees in the whole forest without hierarchy and details. Exposure compensation can be used to increase the exposure of 1~2.

Three: choose lighting. When shooting in the Woods, you should choose side backlight or backlight. Only in this light, when the leaves are exposed to strong sunlight, can they show bright and pleasing colors, clearly distinguish the subject from the background, and better show the hierarchical space. Many times, taking pictures of trees should take advantage of the seasonal and weather changes in nature, such as the red leaves and yellow leaves in autumn, the fog in the forest, the trees in the rain and the mountains after snow, which is often a good time to take pictures of the changes of these trees and will make the photos more exciting. Four: The best shooting time is in the morning and dusk, with large contrast between light and shade and strong shadows. Five: the composition is reasonable, the foreground is well arranged, and the middle scene is a layered picture. And the center of interest. Six: Choosing a good angle is not only beneficial to composition, but also affects the hue brightness and saturation of color. I hope it helps you!
