Make good use of five kinds of light to take textured photos.

Light is a very uncommon word, and you can't say it clearly when you learn it. Light is only a small part of the light used for shooting, and good use of light can add texture to the picture. Of course, we also need friends to control the aperture size and sensitivity correctly. Next, I will introduce you to five commonly used lighting for taking pictures.

1, triangle light

The imaging principle of triangular light refers to the light source from the front of the subject 45? When the angle is taken, there is a triangular shadow on the dark side of the nose, which is called triangular light. As shown in the figure:

Careful observation shows that there is a triangular shadow next to the girl's nose in the picture, which is triangular light.

2. Yin and sunshine

I believe everyone is familiar with Taoist Yin and Yang gossip! Eight diagrams are divided into black and white as yin and yang, black as yin and white as yang. Similarly, the same is true of cloudy days in photography. The contrast between black and white can not only render the atmosphere, but also express the subject's heart. In many police films, "bad guys" are shot in the shade of trees. As shown in the figure:

The stark contrast between darkness and white like this is Yin and Yang.

Step 3 clamp the lamp

Clip light is similar to overcast sunlight, but overcast sunlight is extremely dark and white contrast. Clip light means that the light source shines from one side of the subject, and the other side has soft light (reflected light or filtered light) to fill the dark side, so that the dark side is not extremely dark, but the dark side outline of the subject can be vaguely seen. As shown in the figure:

In the picture, the light source shines on the subject from the left, and the reflected light from the right makes the dark outline of the subject still visible. This phenomenon is called light trapping. Interlayer light is softer than cloudy light, which is used to supplement the light on the other side of the subject.

4. Butterfly lights

Butterfly light is also called "beauty light" by photographers of the older generation, because beautiful women with three-dimensional facial features will look good with butterfly light. Like Audrey? Hepburn's picture:

In Audrey? The shadow under Hepburn's nose is called butterfly light. When using butterfly lights, the lights need to shine from above the head. If butterflies are used well, it will be especially beautiful to shoot girls.

5.rembrandt lamp

Rembrandt is a world-famous Dutch painter. Rembrandt lighting is a special lighting technology specially used to shoot portraits. When shooting, the shadow face of the subject's face faces the lens, and the light illuminates three quarters of the face. The portrait shot by this light method resembles Rembrandt's portrait, hence the name.

Rembrandt light is characterized by forming a triangular spot on the dark cheeks of the subject, which the photographer calls "diamond spot". As shown in the figure:

A triangular spot like this is called Rembrandt light.

I hope you like it. It's helpful for friends who have just learned photography.
