How to shoot snow

Snow shooting skills are as follows:

1, scene composition selection:

When shooting a snow scene, you can try to compose the foreground. Branches, pedestrians and stones can all be used as foreground. If you use foreground composition, you need to keep the snow background clean and tidy.

2. Selection of color and lighting:

When taking pictures in the snow, the choice of characters' clothes also determines the quality of the film. Snow scenes are mostly white, so if you wear light-colored clothes, it is easy to appear unclear in the case of non-close-up shooting, so people can't grasp the picture, so you wear clothes with great contrast with white.

For example, red and black can not only make the main body of the characters clearer, but also create two more lively and calm styles from the color.

3. Rich body language:

Shooting portraits in the snow, in addition to its own aesthetic feeling, bright smile and rich body language, is also an important factor in shooting a good film.

Precautions for taking pictures in snowy days:

First, the choice of equipment:

The ambient temperature for shooting snow scenes is relatively low, so I suggest you consider taking a professional and reliable SLR. In the choice of lens for shooting landscape works, telephoto and wide angle are the main methods. In addition, you often need to carry tripods, polarizers, hoods and other equipment.

Second, the protection of equipment:

Cold weather must be a severe challenge for people and cameras. Therefore, we need to protect the camera. We can prepare an anti-freezing warm cover for your camera and put on a thick cotton-padded coat for your camera.

In addition, when shooting with viewfinder in cold weather, the water vapor exhaled by yourself sometimes makes the camera lens hazy, so don't be lazy, take a mask to shoot, carry a piece of photographic lens cloth with you and clean the camera at any time.
