How to shoot dew after rain?

The air is fresh and comfortable after the rain. Plants become cleaner after being baptized by rain, and the water droplets temporarily left on them add to the cleanliness and beauty of plants. Morning after rain is a good time to photograph plants. At this time, the plants are clean and delicate, and the air is fresh and transparent.

Close-ups of water droplets need to be represented by macro photography. When shooting water droplets with close-ups, only by narrowing the aperture can the appearance and shape be clearly presented. Especially when shooting water droplets on cobwebs and fallen leaves, 100mm medium focus macro lens can play a more effective role. In addition, pay attention to carefully observe the concentration of water droplets and the shape of the sphere from the viewfinder. When shooting at close range, because the depth of field of the lens will become smaller, if shooting at full aperture, the outline of water droplets will become blurred. It's best to narrow the aperture to a certain extent, so that the photos taken are clearer. Finally, don't forget to choose a background that can highlight water droplets. Even the close-up of the messy background can't give people a good perspective.

When using macro to photograph water droplets on plants after rain, you can intentionally blur the background to keep the water droplets on the front leaves clear, and the water droplets will have a strong sense of transparency under the action of light.

Red leaves after rain

On the red leaves after the rain, the rain has not completely evaporated, and a few drops of water add color to the picture.

Crystal dew after rain

Water drops set off the surrounding scenery.

The moment a drop of crystal clear water drops from the leaves reflects the surrounding scenery, showing the perspective effect of fresh air and water drops.

Choose a simple background

Using scattered light to shoot flowers with water droplets in waterfalls shows crystal clear water droplets, highlighting the cleanliness and softness of flowers.

Shoot water droplets after rain with a large aperture

After the rain, the grass is covered with glittering and translucent water drops. Choose a large aperture and a small depth of field to highlight the glittering and translucent water drops to the maximum extent.

Take the initiative to look for dew after rain: after a storm, the sun comes out, or although the sun shines, rain clouds have appeared in the distance. No matter what you are doing, you have a good chance of finding it.

Accurate exposure: the background of dew is the sky, and dew needs to be the object of expression when exposed, that is, the brightness of the sky is the main factor. The background of dew is dark, so the color of dew will stand out. In order to make the color of dew more vivid and prominent, we can reduce some exposure, shoot in RAW format without polarizer, and ensure more adjustment space in the later stage.
