How to take a great photo?

I am not a photography professional, nor am I a photography enthusiast who travels around the world with a heavy SLR. I just like to use photos to record. Since college, I have often shared my photography works in my circle of friends. Unexpectedly, my friends have recognized my photography skills, and my interest in photography has also grown.

Up to now, my photos have formed a certain personal style. In fact, I have never specifically learned photography skills, nor have I used very high-end photography equipment. All photos are just what I want. "Beauty" to shoot. Today I want to share with you (more specifically for photography newbies) how a good photo is born in my eyes.

Photography

1. The subject should be "beautiful"

Among all the image types, I am personally best at taking landscape photos. Many times when I post a photo and a friend leaves a comment saying "The photo is really good", I will reply "It's the scenery itself that's so beautiful".

In this era, everyone seems to be pursuing superb skills, but in fact, the camera was originally born to record, and the existence of photos is to preserve real images. The subject being photographed is "beautiful" enough, which is the prerequisite for a good photo.

If you are interested, I suggest you take a look at the photos in travel magazines. You will find that many photographers are also travelers. They search for beautiful scenery around the world and record the most authentic beauty in their eyes. So for friends who want to learn photography, my suggestion is that you first go out, see the outside world, and explore the beauty of this world. In this process, you will also love nature and life more, and be good at discovering beauty. I believe this is also the growth that photography brings to us.

2. Seize the uniqueness

The subject must be "beautiful", this is the premise, but if you want people to have a deep impression on a work, beauty alone is not enough Yes, it also needs to have enough features. Taking portraits as an example, you will think that the international supermodels photographed by many photographers are not good-looking. Their faces may be sharp and angular, which is not what we usually think of as good-looking, but this is their characteristic and makes people impressed after seeing them.
