Photography skills for novices

1. Keep the camera stable

Many friends who have just learned to take pictures often encounter the problem of blurry images. This is caused by camera shake, so avoid camera shake when shooting. You can hold the camera with both hands, elbows against your chest, or against a stable object. And be relaxed and don't be too nervous. It feels like you are a shooter holding a gun and must shoot steadily.

2. Keep the sun behind you

Photography cannot be photography without light. It is the perfect combination of light and shadow, so there needs to be enough light to shine when shooting. on the subject. The best and easiest way is to have the sun behind you and offset it. The light from the front can illuminate the subject and brighten its colors and shadows. A slight angle can create some shadows. Shows the texture of an object.

3. Reduce the shooting distance

Sometimes, simply getting closer to the subject can get better results than shooting from a distance. You don't have to take a photo of the entire person or object. Sometimes, exaggerating just a characteristic part of the scene will create an image with strong visual impact.

4. Selection of shooting style

Different ways of holding the camera will produce different effects on the images captured. The simplest is to hold the camera vertically and horizontally. Photographs taken vertically can emphasize the height of the subject (such as redwood trees), while horizontally held images can be used to capture images such as rolling mountains.

5. Change the shooting style

You may have taken many very good photos, but they are probably all in the same style, so if you look at them too much, they will give people the impression of being the same. feeling. Therefore, you should constantly try new shooting methods or moods during shooting to add brilliance to your photo album. For example, you can shoot some landscapes, people, close-ups, panoramic images, good weather shots, bad weather shots, etc. Personal photography is very random, so you can go anywhere and take pictures, as long as you think the picture is fishy. Print?

6. Increase the depth of field

Depth of field is very important for good photography. I think every photographer doesn’t want the photos he takes to look like a flat surface without any sense of three-dimensionality. Therefore, when shooting, it is necessary to appropriately add some objects to show relativity. For example, if you want to shoot a distant mountain range, you can add a character or a tree to the foreground of the picture. Using a wide-angle lens can exaggerate the normal spatial and depth perspective of the subject.

7. Correct composition

A good image is usually due to its appropriate composition. There are three common rules for composition in photography. The frame is divided into three parts (horizontally and vertically) and the subject is placed on a line or intersection. Keeping your subject in the middle can get boring, so use the three-point rule to create a variety of photos.

8. Capture details

It is always tempting to use a wide-angle lens to include "everything" in the frame, but this kind of shooting will make you lose a lot of subtleties. Places and sometimes particularly meaningful details. So at this time you can use the zoom lens to make the picture smaller and capture interesting small pictures.

9. Application of the position of the horizon

When the position of the horizon is different, the effect of emphasizing the scenery when you shoot is also different.

For example, if you want to emphasize the land, use a high horizon; if you want to emphasize the sky, use a low horizon
