In the bustling city of Beijing, the night light painting photography blockbuster of Asian dragons

This dragon is a bit ugly

Okay, let’s get to the point. ?Come to find friends near China World Trade Center and park your car in the three-dimensional parking lot. The scenery is nice and there is a bustling scene that is rare in the open air of urban parking lots. I stopped upstairs and took a few random photos during the day. After I got home, I couldn't help but want to come back after dark to experience it again. I was a little reluctant to not take some good-looking photos of my big silver dragon.

You can see several shopping malls and high-rise apartments around the roof, and it is quite magical to be in them. ?However, there are charging piles for electric vehicles here, so it is not advisable to stay there for a long time, as it may cause trouble for others. ?Finally parked the car in the parking area downstairs. If everyone was conscious, there wouldn't be so many quarrels.

This angle is not bad, but there are some problems with the parking position, so don’t pick on it.

Before posting a blockbuster film, let’s take a look at the comparative effects. ?In order to preserve the details of the building behind you, you need to control the aperture, shutter and ISO. ?Using the RAW format, you don’t have to worry about the foreground vehicles being too dark. The powerful data package has helped you record and save the dark details. You can recover the dark details by adjusting exposure and other parameters later. ?Or you can shoot in separate exposures to retain the details of the location you want to preserve, and then superimpose them later to get a more perfect effect. ?I am also a beginner. I hope I can get some pointers if I make mistakes. I hope I can help you if I am correct.

Manipulate exposure, highlights, shadows, and more to get clear, readable photos. ?There are many methods for color correction. You can learn color correction ideas and use presets from the Internet. ?Both black gold and clear styles look good, but black gold is more suitable for shooting architecture, and clear style can be used in a wider range. ?Manual color correction gives a greater sense of accomplishment. It is self-evident to transform a dark photo into a visually polished look. ?As for the camera, I have to admire Sony. The A7M3’s night photography sensitivity and post-processing latitude are too shocking. The price is equally shocking, so we should find ways to improve our own technology and improve the inherent shortcomings of the camera.

Compared with a completely dark environment and an environment with partial lighting conditions, each has its own advantages. ?If you want to take a clear picture of the nearly 5-meter Asian dragon with the least effort, it is easier to use a lighting environment. Increase the exposure market and sweep the light into the dark parts, and you can complete it. ?If you want to shoot interesting effects, a completely dark environment is more beneficial. Use lighting tools to illuminate the areas you want to highlight. ?Light painting is more troublesome. It is best to work with two people, but one person can also do it. It just takes time and energy. Of course, the most important thing is the sense of accomplishment after finishing it.

Do you think the interior looks better with cold light or warm colors? ?Personally, I feel the warm color is warm and soft. In fact, the blue monochrome ambient light is a bit disharmonious and lacks a sense of class. If it is replaced with a white ambient light, I think the effect will be much more harmonious than the cold flame blue. I really hope this model can be changed in the future. Are there any car owners who have modified the ambient lights?

Contrast between warm and cold colors.

The brightness of the fill light is too high and the effect is much worse. Blue ambient light is still a factor affecting the quality of the picture.

The biggest failure may be the use of tools. There is bright light on the back of the lamp, forming a picture of a group of demons dancing around. ?Forget it, the technology is still poor, and the tools cannot be blamed.

In fact, light painting is very simple. Just try to find the right aperture and ISO, and use long exposure to get the desired effect. ? It is recommended that friends who are qualified and want to try it buy a better LED fill light stick and laser pointer. With these two items, you can explore more interesting picture senses.
