Photography composition starts with sweet candy slices

Introduction: Many students may ask what kind of equipment it is. Let me tell you in advance, a SLR body, an 85 fixed focus head, and a 24-70 zoom head. Reflector + built-in flash for direct shooting + group shooting. It's very simple. You can take pictures anywhere in the surrounding parks. Composition and exposure controls are optical keys.

The so-called sugar-water photos in the photography circle refer to the fact that people who pick up cameras to take pictures increasingly care less about the meaning of the photos themselves, and pay more attention to the beauty presented by the photos. A large number of portraits Photography blindly pursues sweet, pretty, and sexy formal beauty while ignoring the connotation of the subject matter and what the creator himself wants to express.

But why do you say that as a beginner who is learning portrait photography skills, you need to take good photos? As a basic skill requirement? It is mainly considered from the following points:

1 , Good sugar water tablets have heavy technical requirements. We are studying technical indicators such as aperture, focal length, white balance, sensitivity, exposure, color, color temperature, saturation, light and dark, virtual reality, depth of field, gradation, contrast, etc. We are also trying to figure out the relationship between the cameras, lenses, film and other equipment used. kind. Even though photography is a relatively popular aesthetic carrier, good skill learning and reserve are the basis for creating a beautiful visual presentation. One fact we need to understand is that beauty is more likely to appear in dreams. But turning dreams into reality requires your skilled hands, so making good sugar water movies is a basic exercise and improvement for our skills.

2. No matter in terms of knowledge, skills or artistic and ideological process, there is a process of affirmation - negation - negation of negation. Photography art learning has a process of originating from reality, refining reality, and transcending reality. In the affirmative stage, we must have a rational analysis and analysis of the composition, such as diagonals, parallel lines, triangles, trapezoids, symmetry, asymmetry, area, volume, the relationship between distance and distance, the relationship between virtual and real, the relationship between primary and secondary, and the relationship between importance and importance. The stage of grasping. ?Learn something tangible and gradually get used to it, then you can use it intangibly? This is the same as when we first learn the computer keyboard and have to use one finger to touch it until we can close our eyes and type blindly. Taking good sugar water films is a key step to lay a solid foundation in the final stage.

3. For portrait photography, as a collective creation involving a team, the ability to create a perfect image of your subject is a basic skill. Just like the drawings that Leonardo da Vinci threw away when he first painted eggs were probably picked up and used as toilet paper and were regarded as toilet paper. Now you have an authentic copy of it that is worth tens of millions. Is it that the value of the painting itself has been increased? It’s just that the stream of consciousness and culture represented by this painting have had enough influence to increase its value. When you are unable to use your stream of consciousness and values ??to influence and guide others. Having the ability to shape aesthetic habits that conform to the public is the basis for your ability to maintain cooperation as a team. Otherwise, everything you look at with your lens will be filled with desolation and panic. It will probably be a big blow to not only the team, but also your own self-confidence.

Of course, I am saying that taking good photos of sugar water is a basic requirement for photography learners. We are also constantly emphasizing that the decisive factor that ultimately allows you to make continuous progress depends on your thoughts and creativity. When technology reaches a certain level, it will tend to be homogeneous. After all, the scope of expansion of an ordinary theme is limited. If the primary stage of photography learning is about technical strength, how far and high you can go in the future depends on your own cultivation and how deep your inner understanding of the world is. I hope that more master-level talents will emerge in China. If China wants to rise in the world, in addition to increasing its economic hard power, we must also rely on our soft power to export our values.

The so-called body can perish, but the spirit can last forever?
