Matters needing attention in outdoor photography of forestry department

Basic equipment for outdoor shooting.

In addition to the camera, there must be three lenses: 85mmF/ 1.2, 50mmF/ 1.2, 24-70mmF/2.8. According to the needs of scene composition, determine the basic focal length, form a general judgment of the picture in your mind, and be aware of the framing and composition. Don't twist the camera around and chase people blindly, so that you lose sight of one thing and lose sight of another.

The advantages of fixed-focus lens naturally need not be described in detail. Compared with the two, the 50mm lens focuses on shooting some backlit portraits or close-ups of the environment. Its large aperture can better highlight the light and shadow details of the scene and the emotions of the characters, and the composition is mostly bust.

85mm is also a frequently used lens. Not only does it have a large aperture of F 1.2, but more importantly, its focal length can well control the deformation of scenery and characters. Considering this feature, the 85mm lens pays more attention to taking some full-length photos with close-ups of the environment and people.

Whether it is a flower scene or a forest, the space is relatively narrow, and there are many sundries around, so there is not much room for framing. Therefore, in most cases, it is necessary to shoot with a focal length above the medium focal length to make the picture more concise while retaining the explanation of the environment. Or use a high-angle overhead shot to keep only the green plants on the ground.

Shooting time: about 1 in the afternoon, scene light and supplementary light: the angle of the sun is close to the top light, and the light is supplemented to the human face with a reflector. At the same time, a reflector should be used to block the strong sunlight and form a softer diffuse reflection light. In addition, there should always be cigarette cakes in the camera bag. Especially when the weather is clear, choose the backlight position in the afternoon and put some smoke photos, which will make the effect more brilliant. In addition, portable ladders are also essential, especially when shooting in low flowers or grass. It is often necessary to shoot at a high angle to show a more complete scene, and to avoid excessive deformation of the characters caused by using too wide a angle.

Solutions to different weather

We often joke that photographers are like farmers: they depend on the sky for food. An excellent photographer must be an expert in using weather, because the change of weather determines the characteristics of light, and the optimization of light with different characteristics determines the quality of photos.

As far as the location of forest system is concerned, the basic principle is to conform to the characteristics of natural light and grasp the tone of shooting: it is warm when there is sunshine; When there is no sunshine, it is fresh.

When the sun is strong, the better shooting time is in the morning and afternoon. At this time, the sun and the ground have a certain inclination angle, which is suitable for expressing the three-dimensional sense of people and scenes. With the passage of time, the light changes quickly, the setting sun is low, the color is warm, and the romantic effect of backlight is the best.

Shooting time: around 0: 30 am/kloc-0.

The light in this period is relatively stable, and the incident angle in the middle and high position is suitable for expressing the three-dimensional sense of people and scenes, and the color temperature is moderate, so that various shades of photos can be taken.

Site analysis: Focusing on the flower and tree scenes, we should combine the production characteristics of flowers, change the way of framing and composition, and highlight the emotional integration of characters.

On-site lighting and auxiliary lighting: with abundant sunshine and strong sense of light direction, both side lighting and backlight shooting can achieve good results. You can use a reflector to fill the light, reduce the light ratio appropriately, and brighten the level of the shadow part.

Aperture: f/2.2, speed:11600s, ISO:200, focal length: 85mm.

Large aperture and medium telephoto segment bring clean picture effect, flowers in the background are hazy, people are prominent, and the picture atmosphere is romantic.

Aperture: f/2.8, speed: 1/2500s, ISO:200, focal length: 45mm.

Low-angle backhand can construct a panoramic view of the flower tree. Pay attention to the blank space in composition, and let the direct sunlight form a wash to purify the background space. From a high point of view, the upper and lower levels in space can be transformed into the front and back levels on the screen, and the depth of field can be compressed with a medium telephoto lens with a large aperture to highlight the characters.

Shooting time: around 2: 30 pm

At this time, the light is still strong and the contrast between light and shade is strong. It is suggested to use external light (flash) to control the light ratio of the picture, or shoot in a sheltered (shadow) scene.

On-site analysis: there are few trees and insufficient green plants, and the overall scenery is low and a bit messy. Therefore, the framing composition must be concise, such as highlighting people with large apertures, blurring the background and weakening the environment.

On-site lighting and supplementary lighting: At this time, the lighting is still relatively strong, and the contrast in the shadow is a bit large. The reflector should be used to supplement the lighting to reduce the light ratio between the scene and the people in the shadow.

Aperture: f/2.8, speed:11600s, ISO:200, focal length: 50 mm.

Because of the trees, even the strong light at noon can get a softer light environment.

Aperture: f/2.8, speed: 1/640s, ISO:200, focal length: 85mm.

Sunshine is lively in shaping the face, and the positioning of the characters should be correspondingly enthusiastic.

In cloudy weather, it is easy to create a fresh and beautiful picture effect with high color saturation and delicate layers by using soft scattered light. Generally speaking, in the case of insufficient light, try to choose a large scene environment with rich color changes to shoot and keep the background level as much as possible, thus enriching the picture.

When it is cloudy or cloudy, I will consider shooting when the light is strongest. On the premise of not affecting the image quality, the sensitivity should be kept as normal as possible.

Shooting time: in the afternoon 1 around half past ten.

On-the-spot analysis: The landscape environment is relatively open, the picture is clean, and there is no unnecessary sundries, which is very suitable for showing the open picture of Shu Lang. At this time, we can learn from the movie pictures, guide the models to play freely, and shoot more open compositions to enhance the artistic conception of the pictures.

Live lighting and auxiliary lighting: it was cloudy when shooting. In order to maintain the sense of natural light, there is basically no additional light.

Highlights change: the film pays great attention to the use of white space. Whether the high-altitude camera captures a sense of depth or the low-altitude camera captures the sky, we must grasp the perspective relationship between people and scenes.

Aperture: f/2.8, speed: 1/2500s, ISO: 100, focal length: 35mm.

When shooting at the water's edge, the field of vision is often wider and less blocked. With the help of large scenes, the ambient atmosphere can be fully rendered.

Aperture: f/3.2, speed: 1/400s, ISO: 100, focal length: 85mm.

Making full use of plants to create a sense of color and colorful flowers to create a prospect can also enrich the picture and break the dull effect.

Aperture: f/2.8, speed:11250s, ISO: 100, focal length: 85mm.

If there are not many details in the sky, we should pay more attention to the soft light effect of nature. Pay attention to the position of the horizon and keep the overall structural balance.

Shooting time: around 6: 30 pm

If it is cloudy and cloudy, the light will be weakened and the visibility will be reduced. The contrast and transparency of the photos will be slightly better, so pay more attention to the performance of the atmosphere.

Site analysis: Open the pond bank and set up outdoor wedding scenes. The visual angle is relatively simple, so we can use different camera angles and focal lengths to seek changes and highlight the sense of wedding scene.

On-site lighting and supplementary lighting: In the evening, the afterglow of the sun shines on people, and the reflector is used to supplement the on-site light and preserve the natural atmosphere.

Aperture: f/ 1.8, speed: 1/250s, ISO:400, focal length: 85 mm.

Make full use of the performance characteristics of different focal lengths, and pursue the best image quality and visual effect in the case of weak light. The change of position and focal length makes the photo more dynamic.

So much for the outdoor photography notes of the Forestry Department. I wish all candidates can study hard and learn more about photography skills, hot information and dry goods. Bian Xiao will continue to update.
