Photographic structural skills of SLR

Lead: Composition is very important in photography. Let's take a look at the composition skills of SLR photography.

Horizontal line composition

Because of the existence of horizon, horizontal composition can be said to be the most commonly used composition method in landscape photography. The rhythmic horizontal sorting method gives the photos a steady, steady and atmospheric temperament. Of course, there are such horizontal lines in nature, and the appropriate horizontal lines can be captured by using the photographic eyes. (The original picture was taken by a mobile phone)

Vertical line composition

Vertical composition gives people a sense of order, stability and practicality. Suitable for towering scenery. Such as buildings, trees, cliffs, waterfalls, etc. (Original shooting parameters: F/ 16, 1/200 seconds, ISO200, focal length 35mm)

Diagonal composition

Directional composition, artificial arrangement is more obvious. You can easily guide the viewer's line of sight to the two corners of the photo and return again. Increase the time the audience stays in the photo. At the same time, diagonal composition gives photos a sense of movement, liveliness and spatial extension. Often used to shoot portraits, water, roads, buildings, etc. (Original shooting parameters: f/4, 1/40s, ISO500, focal length 35mm)

S-shaped composition (curve composition)

There are various shapes of objects in nature. For example, the scenery on the screen is in the form of S-shaped curve composition, which has the characteristics of extension and change, making people look rhythmic and producing a beautiful, elegant and harmonious feeling. It is often used to photograph landscapes, roads, rivers and paths. (Original shooting parameters: f/5.6, 1/80 seconds, ISO200, focal length 80mm)

Type c component

C-shaped composition has the characteristics of curve beauty, can produce variable visual focus, and the picture is concise and clear. However, when arranging the subject and object, it must be arranged at the C-shaped gap, so that people's eyes can move to the subject and object with the arc. C-shaped composition can be adjusted in any direction. Generally speaking, it is mostly used for industrial and architectural themes. (Original shooting parameters: F/ 16, 1/200 seconds, ISO200, focal length 20mm)

Frame composition uses the frame of the scene as the foreground, which can increase the vertical contrast and decorative effect of the picture and make the photo have a sense of depth. (Original shooting parameters: F/ 13, 1/250 seconds, ISO 125, focal length 22mm)

Tick-tac-toe combination (Jiugongge combination)

Tick-tac-toe composition is also called Jiugongge composition. Put the subject or the scenery that needs to stand out in it? Hmm? On the four intersections of ci. According to people's viewing habits, the top left corner is the best, followed by the top right corner, the third bottom left corner and the last top right corner. Usually, digital SLR cameras have a nine-grid reference line setting, which can set the display, making it easier to point accurately when shooting. (Original shooting parameters: F/ 1.8,1125 seconds, ISO320, focal length 50mm)

Vanishing line composition (vanishing point composition or converging line composition)

Seeing from a distance and seeing from a small distance, especially in a wide-angle lens, is exaggerated and obvious. Visible or invisible lines disappear at one point. If the subject is arranged in the center of the vanishing line, it can not only highlight the subject, but also firmly grasp the sight of tourists and increase the time for the sight to stay in the photo. (Original shooting parameters: F/ 16, 1/200 seconds, ISO200, focal length 26mm)

Symmetric synthesis method

Usually used in landscapes, buildings, reflections and other scenes to form a symmetrical artistic picture. (Original shooting parameters: F/ 14, 1/200 seconds, ISO200, focal length 3 1mm)

Closed composition

Closed composition comes from painting, and a successful painting should be complete and balanced, and the content expressed is limited to the picture. (Original shooting parameters: F/ 1.8,1125 seconds, ISO320, focal length 50mm)

Open composition

Open composition does not pay attention to the rigor and balance of the picture, and the image of the picture is incomplete, so as to emphasize the existence of the space outside the picture and the organic connection with it, and enhance the visual impact. The impression is not intentionally piled up, which increases the realism of the photo. (Original shooting parameters: F/ 1.8,1125 seconds, ISO320, focal length 50mm)
