Handicraft photography

There are four ways to teach yourself photography: learning photography knowledge from books; Practice photography skills; Look closely at the works and benefit a lot; It is necessary to communicate with friends in movies. First, learn to learn photography from photography books, just like learning other "crafts", we must learn the relevant knowledge of this craft well. First of all, read the user manual of your digital camera carefully, which not only tells you how to operate and use the camera, but also explains a lot of photography knowledge combined with the camera function. You can't read the Manual one by one. You should study hard and read again and again until you can remember the operation method. Only in this way can you use the camera skillfully. Secondly, we should learn some practical knowledge from the shallow to the deep. There are many books about photography now, so you must choose according to your own needs. For beginners, it is best to buy works that are easy to understand, illustrated and widely used. Second, what is the practice photography in the practice of photography skills? Some people say that photography is a "golf" leisure sport for the general public and needs to master some skills. Where does the skill come from? We should practice in practice shooting, practice more, practice repeatedly and practice deeply. Practice, practice, practice makes perfect; Only by repeated practice can we sum up experience and lessons and constantly improve shooting skills; Only by in-depth practice can we develop the skills of shooting different themes and different scenes. Third, a closer look at the work has benefited a lot. A close look at a work refers to a careful analysis of one's own and others' photographic works. You can't just look at the "excitement" of your own, others' or even online downloaded photos, you should carefully analyze them. What criteria are used for analysis? I think there are mainly the following aspects. 1, composition. Analyze whether the composition follows "simplicity". Whether the subject is prominent or not, and whether the messy objects interfere with the line of sight. 2. Image. Analyze whether the image is clear and sharp. A clear and sharp photo will make people feel comfortable, even if the blurred scenery in the photo needs to be sharp. 3. color. Clean colors are always pleasing, and impure colors are always annoying. The main color of the picture can be beautiful and elegant, vivid and exaggerated, normal and accurate, and even black and white. In a word, the saturation can vary from person to person, but the purity of color cannot be affected. 4. fun. Analyze whether the photos are interesting. Interest is the most striking theme in a photo, and a photo usually has an interesting center. Interesting photos will make people want to enjoy them. Fourth, it is necessary to teach yourself photography, and you can't "build a car behind closed doors". Communication with film friends is an indispensable way. There are many ways to communicate: peer photography is a kind of field communication; Online "watching" and "chatting" (looking at photos and talking about opinions) is a more convenient communication; Publishing photos in the column of "Le Ling Net" and "Photography" is the most widely spread. We want to thank "Le Ling Net" for providing us with this platform. No matter what communication method is adopted, we should not only "praise" but also "comment". Only in this way can we learn from each other, improve constantly and make good movies.
