How does mobile phone photography capture a sense of hierarchy and space? An article tells you

When I first learned photography, the teacher said, "Photographs are two-dimensional pictures, and reality is a three-dimensional world.

If you want to make the plane picture three-dimensional, you must learn to create a sense of space and hierarchy, and put the subject you want to express in your own "simulated three-dimensional space".

Simply put, it is to highlight the main body with the least elements and the sense of space and hierarchy in the picture.

Although there are only three simple keywords "sense of space, sense of hierarchy and theme", we still need to do some understanding for beginners to express clearly.

The following abortion will talk about her experience through three parts.

If you want to increase the sense of space, you can create infinite visual magnification through some special compositions.

Use the extension line in the picture to shoot an infinite sense of space.

▼ For example, two photos taken at the same time (right) have an extended path, which gives the picture a sense of perspective space.

The "blank" composition in photography is actually an extension of our "associative space".

Blanking is not a simple blank, but with the help of various contrasts (color, light and dark contrast, etc. ), the subject and the simple background form a strong contrast.

While highlighting the main body, it also gives viewers a different understanding of the picture and unlimited imagination because of more blank space.

There are three kinds of "contrast" commonly used in photography-color contrast, light-dark contrast and virtual-real contrast.

If we make good use of these contrasts, we can get a sense of hierarchy.

Usually refers to "cold and warm color contrast" (red, orange, yellow, blue, green). Mastering the contrast between cold and warm colors will make the picture layered.

▼ For example, the following four photos were taken with and without contrast.

Figure 1, Figure 4: The subject and background are the same color, and there is no contrast, so there is no layering.

Figure 2 and Figure 3: The contrast between the subject and the background is strong and naturally hierarchical.

Knowing the contrast between cold and warm, you can pay attention to observation and capture this contrast scene when shooting at ordinary times.

Contrast between light and shade, usually with the help of light and shooting angle, causes the contrast between light and shade of the picture, showing a sense of hierarchy.

If you want to shoot a picture with sharp contrast between light and dark, you can usually shoot it with the help of backlight or side light.

There are actually many ways to highlight the subject, including the above-mentioned color and contrast between light and shade. The contrast between reality and reality is one of the more intuitive and effective methods.

The mobile phone focuses on the small snail nearby, and the snail in the distance and the background are obviously blurred, which finally highlights the main body.

Partners who often take photos with their mobile phones should know that it is not easy to take a blurred background with their mobile phones.

There is a trick-in the case of ensuring clear focus, the lens is as close as possible to the subject, and the background will naturally blur.

1- left: long-distance shooting, the background is not blurred, and the subject is not prominent.

2- Right: Close-up shooting, focusing on a flower, blurring the background and highlighting the subject.

In addition, I want to highlight the main body of the picture. In addition to the contrast between reality and reality, we can also use some "compulsory" methods.

A large maple leaf was photographed, and only one leaf was left in the later stage, and the main body of the picture immediately stood out.

The method of "color extraction" for mobile phone production: follow up the method immediately, please pay attention to the update.
