Skills of shooting reflection on water surface

We can often see reflections in our lives, and we are happy to make beautiful movies with such reflections. Sometimes, we look back and deliberately find some angles with reflections to shoot. Seeing some big-name photographers will give full play to this way and learn this shooting technique together.

Shooting reflection can create amazing works, but it is often more difficult than expected. Today, Bian Xiao will share some tips on 12 reflection shooting, hoping to inspire you to create more inspiration and shoot satisfactory reflection works!

1, find the interface

In addition to the water surface, hand-held items such as glass surface, visible car body, wet asphalt pavement, ice surface or sunglasses can all be excellent reflection photography interfaces. Such an interface can be seen everywhere. As long as you look for it with your heart, there will always be different gains.

Step 2 Arrange the subjects

The subject is equivalent to a visual point, which makes the picture more artistic. A bird, a boat or a tree can do it.

3. vanishing point

By comparing the near big with the far small, it is more striking to arrange the subject at the vanishing point.

4. Comparison between reality and reality

When shooting, the application of slow door can make the water surface more unreal.

5. Lens tension

Using wide-angle framing, the closer to the edge of the lens, the still life is magnified, thus increasing the visual impact of the picture.

Step 6 find potential customers

Foreground can explain the positional relationship of the scene, thus making the picture more layered.

7. Low angle

With stone as the foreground and low angle, the sense of space in the picture is more intense under the stretching of the lens.

8. Backlight outline

Silhouette is a simple and powerful way to shoot when the environment is messy and the colors are too scattered.

9, the main body is concise

It is very important for beginners to do subtraction in their compositions.

10, leave the fun blank

"Blanking" leaves an artistic conception, which will be destroyed if the environment is too clear.

1 1, wait for the light

When the light is blocked by mountains, Woods and clouds, it is very likely to form narrow light. Using narrow light shooting, the picture will become very vivid.

12 with the help of ripples

When shooting reflection works, the water reflection doesn't have to be as perfect as the mirror reflection. When layers of tiny ripples make the reflection irregular and distorted, it often brings a lot of interest to the picture.

Thank you for looking so good! I would also like to pay attention to Bian Xiao.
