How to take a good picture when traveling alone?

First of all, you need one and only one:

Mobile phone (or camera) with timing function.

The mobile phone I used at that time was Iphone4s. After jailbreaking, I can shoot regularly by installing a timer plug-in.

Self-timer steps:

1. Arrange the composition in your mind, such as where people should stand or sit, and what is the main body of the scene you want to shoot.

2. Put your mobile phone anywhere you can stand upright.

3, timing, 10~ 15s, and then press the shutter.

Run to the place you expect, stand/sit well, and wait for a while.

5. Go back and look at the photo just now ╰ (▽) ╮

In my opinion, taking a selfie with the time-lapse shooting function of the mobile phone when traveling alone has the following advantages:

1, convenient

As a shooting tool, mobile phone is really convenient and easy to carry. Secondly, when shooting, the mobile phone can be placed on the steps, rocks, schoolbags and wrinkled clothes (I will talk nonsense when I put my mobile phone in my slippers on the beach) _ (:з∠) _) What tripod do you want?

2. Special perspective

Because most of the time, the mobile phone can only be placed on the low ground, but the low special angle of view makes the photos have a different aesthetic feeling, and you can often take beautiful foliage flowers on the ground ~ In addition, because the mobile phone is not always lucky to be placed on the plane, it often takes pictures of inclined horizons or buildings, which is not in line with the law of photography, but I also find some photos very interesting ~
