2, shooting skills 1, about the lens shooting method

Good photographic equipment is half the battle. There are three key words to choose the equipment for shooting cherry blossoms: large aperture, telephoto and macro.

1, macro lens

Macro lens is born for shooting close-ups, which can not only avoid the influence of the environment on the subject to the greatest extent, but also fully interpret the beauty and elegance of a small cluster of cherry blossoms.

2, telephoto lens

Using telephoto lens can not only blur the background, but also effectively cut the background and put the unnecessary messy background outside the frame.

3. Large aperture

A large aperture can achieve a very good background blur effect, so that there will be no messy background to steal the eye when shooting cherry blossoms. Create a very small depth of field with a large aperture or set macro shooting directly to create a clear stamen and hazy background.

Second, about running out of light.

1, Guang Shun shoots.

Sunlight is the most commonly used lighting method in photography. Sunshine photography can faithfully record the elegant characteristics of cherry blossoms, and can also better show the "blue" of the blue sky when the sky is used as the background. But if all the photos are taken along the light, it is inevitable that you will be tired when you see too many photos of the same type.

2. Backlight shooting

Cherry blossoms are dense, and the flower shape characteristics are not obvious, which is not suitable for backlighting. But the petals of cherry blossoms are very thin and have good light transmission. If you shoot a big scene against the light, you can strengthen the sense of hierarchy and space between the cherry blossoms and the background.

3. Low sensitivity

When shooting, you can choose to reduce the sensitivity as much as possible to make the details of cherry blossoms more delicate. It is best not to exceed the sensitivity of ISO250 pair card machine and ISO400 pair SLR camera.

Third, about composition.

1, avoid writing "full"

The blooming cherry blossoms will inevitably make the picture lose focus, and it will tend to be dull without the owner. In a large scene full of cherry blossoms, there must be a finishing touch or a proper blank space. The combination of primary and secondary composition is more likely to highlight the lush cherry blossoms because of the contrast effect.

2. Close-up or close-up shooting.

Close shot and close shot can not only show the delicacy of cherry blossoms, but also show the details and texture of flowers.

The sky is the background

Cherry blossoms are light in color, clustered, small in single flower and often have no green leaves. It is difficult to capture the freshness of the bustling flowers that seem to be in full bloom, so it is impossible to melt all the flowers in the bright blue sky, reflecting the beauty of Zhang Xiangrong.

4, trunk or ancient buildings as a foil.

Many cherry trees are decades old and will blossom and sprout on the thick trunk. After the flower clusters are combined with the trunk or branches to form a composition, the texture of the trunk and the shape of the branches can well highlight the cherry blossom clusters and achieve the combination of point and surface. If you choose cherry trees near ancient buildings, you can choose the combination of cherry trees and the outline of background buildings to make a composition, which can take a quaint atmosphere.

Fourth, about framing.

The flowering period of cherry blossoms is short, and it takes about 7 days for a cherry blossom to bloom and wither. Therefore, when cherry blossoms are in full bloom, tourists will get together to enjoy the flowers, and there will inevitably be very noisy scenes. If you don't want to shoot the "grand occasion" of more people and less flowers, you must think about how to streamline the background. Framework is often the key to success.

Unless you are a photojournalist shooting a live report of the Cherry Blossom Festival, the most important thing when shooting cherry blossom scenes is not to let a large number of tourists become the characters in your photos. Try to choose a place with a clean and concise background. If people can't escape, backhand is a good way to compensate.

2. Avoid looking far away.

As the saying goes, "I don't know the true face of Lushan Mountain, but I am only in this mountain", so we Shang Huashi people should be in the sea of flowers, but we should try to stay away from the sea of flowers when shooting big scenes.

3. Don't take flowers blindly.

In addition to taking pictures of cherry blossoms, we sometimes need to find some background that can reflect the environment at that time, explain the background of the venue or add charm to the photos. For example, the corner of the antique cornice behind the cherry blossoms, or the hazy beauty figure behind the cherry blossoms, can be the finishing touch of a photo. In the season when cherry blossoms are in full bloom, make an appointment with TA, bring your camera, be in the sea of flowers and feel romantic!
