What do you think of mobile photography?

With the camera phone, photography has changed, and it will be multiplied or even hundreds of times!

The reason why there are so many questions about mobile phones is that there are many questions about the photography technology of mobile phones. However, regarding mobile phone photography, let's not talk about photography technology here. I want to say: the camera phone has brought a bigger "bonus" to photographers.

I want to ask, you love photography, how long can your photography career last at most? This may not be accurate for anyone. But there is a basic fact: in the past, when the mobile phone was only used for making phone calls, your photography time, except for family photography, should basically be the time after you went out with your camera bag on your back, and the end time is the time when your camera was stored in moistureproof box, including the time when you sometimes took it with you in the car and didn't take it out. In this way, even if you are a professional photographer, your life and photography time are pitiful. However, here I want to tell you a fact. Since the "handheld era" when camera phones became popular, your photography time may be all the time from waking up to going to bed, because as American photographer Chas Galvez said, mobile phones are the best cameras that can't leave you alone. It not only makes people's photography time double, ten times and a hundred times longer. Mobile phones also make photography a common life behavior and popular lifestyle, which fundamentally changes the concept of photography. If you love photography, your photography life will be greatly expanded and the significance of photography will be enriched and enhanced.

I got such a big photography "bonus" brought by my mobile phone. I don't need to carry my cell phone all the time. Many people who love photography, including some photographers, refuse to do justice for my camera phone!

I think we still need to achieve better results. Now I'll tell you about it.

First, choose the best photography.

The flowers we see are often not one, but a cluster or even a piece. Learn to restrain yourself at this time. Too much greed is often bad, or the background is messy or dull. We should first observe which cluster or flower is the best, and then focus on photos.

Second, don't shoot in strong light.

In the backlight and strong light environment, the light source metering picture will be dark and the flowers will be unclear, while the flower metering picture will be bright and the picture will be overexposed. We can adjust the position of the mobile phone around the subject and choose front light or side light to take pictures.

Side light photography, correct exposure

Third, the subject is prominent and the background is simple.

Any excellent photo must follow this principle, so that people can understand what the subject is at a glance. We can choose the ground, wall, water and sky as the background to achieve the purpose of concise background; If it is not possible, you can use large aperture mode to achieve shallow depth of field effect; If there is no large aperture mode, you can also choose portrait mode to turn off beauty; If there is no portrait mode, let flowers occupy most of the picture.

Fourth, use flowers as foreground or ornament.

This shooting method is not simply to shoot flowers, but to integrate flowers into the picture and become a part of the picture. With the ornament of flowers, the picture becomes more pleasing to the eye.

Fifth, the combination of static and dynamic.

Flowers are static, so we can add some moving elements to the picture to make it more vivid and interesting. Such as bees, small insects, portraits and so on. This needs a little snapshot technology, just try it a few times.

Sixth, solid color background.

If the background is really messy and you can't see it, you can use the text+mask function in snapseed to make a solid background, which is a common method in the late flower stage.

Seven, no color flowers.

Try to adjust the photography to black and white effect, which can not only hide unwanted elements, but also have a different flavor.

Eight, late special effects.

There are too many games in the later period, and all kinds of special effects can be tried, such as ink painting, Chinese painting, oil painting, watercolor painting, abstract painting effect, making dresses with flowers and so on. As long as the brain hole is big enough, there is nothing wrong with it.

Flowers make clothes.

Having said that, this is about shooting scenery. Mainly equipment. It depends on whether you want to learn photography or something. If you want to learn photography, just buy a camera and shoot for fun, and buy a mobile phone with good pixels, 48 million pixels. You deserve it. I hope to inspire you and make more and better works.

Now the photography technology of mobile phones is very powerful. In fact, the photographic equipment is not that important. What matters is the human brain. More than 10 thousand cameras can't handle the scene well, so it's better to shoot with a camera. Mobile phone photography is not necessarily bad. I also took this with my mobile phone.

Compared with professional camera photography, mobile phone photography is simpler to operate, more convenient to carry and has a long battery life. Don't pay too much attention to the familiarity with camera knowledge. Nowadays, the function of mobile phone camera is more and more powerful, and it has the function of manually adjusting the parameters of professional camera. By learning to shoot composition, ordinary people can also take good-looking photos. Mobile phone photography is more about recording the beauty in life, and works are more about expressing personal thoughts and feelings. I think this is a more important point of mobile phone photography.

Family entertainment level

Shooting equipment really doesn't play a decisive role, mainly depending on your shooting theme and some ideas! Mobile phones are portable and flexible!
