How to achieve minimalism in mobile phone photography

Lead: The basis of composition is regularity and conciseness. It is also said that photography is the art of subtraction. Here I will tell you how to shoot minimalism to achieve minimalism.

How to make mobile phone photography minimalist and clean can add points to an ordinary work. If you make good use of the lines given by the environment at the same time, it is a very excellent work! The convenience of mobile phones allows us to discover and create compositions anytime and anywhere.

The beginning of everything, the road to simplicity,

It evolved into a complex and loud sound.

China's traditional culture also illustrates this truth.

When you have been thinking: I want to shoot as many things as possible, I want to do a cool post, I want rich special effects, have you ever thought:

1. Is the theme clear?

2. Is the picture concise and free of unnecessary elements?

3. The visual focus is not disturbed.

The simplest technique, the simplest content and the simplest composition often give people the most surprising visual effects.

Uncle today explained to you how to achieve minimalism in five different shooting types:

1. Minimalist scenery? Take pure color as beauty.

Simple color is a small skill to express simple style, which is especially important in landscape photography.

When shooting outdoors, try to broaden your horizons and look for the main colors in the scene. Any scene will have a dominant color, or a solid color will occupy most of the picture, such as a clean sky, such as grass on the edge of a forest, or a calm ocean on the edge of a rock.

The purpose of this is to capture 99% of this minimalist photo, but where is 1%? That is the finishing touch in a painting, the element to break the deadlock in composition.

The sky can be a cloud, an airplane, a horse or some sheep on the grassland, and the sea surface can be a sailboat or several wooden stakes moored by fishermen.

At this time, with these motives, the picture will be activated instantly, and the contrast with the solid color background will show minimalism and tranquility.

2. Minimalist still life? Highlight the subject and use the depth of field flexibly.

What makes time stand still and freeze it?

The trivial things in life surround us, quietly recording the footsteps of the years in a quiet place.

What best reflects our life is the still life around us, such as a water cup, a street lamp, an old accordion in the corner or ice hanging under the eaves in winter. Minimalism is also the easiest to play on these small objects.

3. Minimalist characters? Get rid of all the clutter and interference.

Minimalist photography: blank space.

The photographer said:? We should be simple, not simple. ? Figure photography is particularly prominent in this respect.

By leaving blank space, the emotions, thinking and attitudes of the characters in the picture are reflected. No content doesn't mean no thoughts, and blank space can better reflect the inner feelings of the characters.

The same subject, blank space can make your photos present a completely different atmosphere. The lack of content does not mean the lack of attention. In fact, blank space can often improve attention, because it makes the subject more prominent and can effectively induce emotions.

4. Minimalist architecture? Line up first

Is this permeated in minimalist architectural photography? Less is more? The philosophy of architectural design advocates the new concept of flowing space in handling methods, and simplifies all the details of the work to irreducible? Absolutely? State, the structure of many works is completely exposed.

But they are noble and elegant, and sublimate the structure itself into architectural decoration art.

5. Minimalist ecology? Keep an eye on one thing and abandon everything.

In those moments when light and shadow are interlaced in life, life blooms here, with a flower, a leaf, a sand and a worm, which provides infinite possibilities for our minimalist photography. Backlight, silhouette, macro and blur are all your handy weapons.

Get rid of everything that affects your vision and make the subject as clear, conspicuous and quiet as possible.

For photography, it is the art of subtraction! Less is more. After taking a photo, ask yourself if there are any more elements in it. Naturally, your job can also be by going up one flight of stairs!
