Practical cases of still life photography

The first is to put the glass in front of the white wall, and the shooting platform is a glass desktop. The camera has a good angle, so shoot it. We didn't do any lighting control here.

It's so dark ~ Mm-hmm * * * Think about it, it should be the problem of "exposure compensation", because it's a white wall, and everyone knows that "white increases and black decreases"! Ok, let's take another picture!

Wow! It's really much better than just now! At least those ugly reflections on the glass have disappeared, but … the edge of the glass seems to be not so clear … so the next thing to do is to "draw" its edge on both sides of the glass.

This is the left and right edges of the "painted" glass, but it seems that the black edges on both sides of the cup are still asymmetrical, and the black edge on the left seems too thin! ? This problem comes from the glass itself, or the relative position relationship between camera, glass and blackboard. In other words, as long as the position of the glass and the board is adjusted, the thickness of these black edges can be adjusted!

The adjusted left and right black edges look really symmetrical … but what seems to be missing? Generally, we want the glass to look a little layered, but in fact, the layer in the middle of the glass is actually an "image of the background" * * * You can imagine that this shape of glass is more or less like a lens. Therefore, to change the level of glass, it is necessary to polish the background instead of directly polishing the glass. By controlling the background light, the visual appearance of glass can be changed …

With a small light source, the background light can have more light and shade levels than simply using a soft mask.

Adjust the overall contrast slightly to make the layers more obvious, and then modify the details to complete the glass photo. * * * Although all this seemed easy, the first time I shot glass, I totally suffered. The bitterness of this is probably only known when you shoot it yourself! ***
