The Angle and Skills of SLR Photography

Shoot from different angles

Flowers shot from a very low angle.

Nowadays, many cameras have flip screens, and SLR cameras are also equipped with simple and easy-to-use real-time persuasion function, which provides great convenience for us to take pictures from an unconventional angle. For example, the photo of the flower above, the author almost put the camera on the ground and took it from below with the flip screen of the camera. This angle of view is not common compared with most flower shooting.

The photo of the deer above was taken when I was traveling in Japan. At that time, I used a Nikon SLR camera D5300 with a flip screen. With the real-time persuasion function, I put my camera on the ground and photographed a deer lying on the dam.

If you lower or raise the viewing angle, you will find that the faces of many things have changed, and the photos taken are very different from those from the normal viewing angle. When shooting still life, flowers and other subjects, lowering the angle can better express the texture and material of things. When shooting buildings and figures, proper use of overhead photography can reflect the grandeur of buildings and the straightness of figures.

Summary:

Jiugongge is the most commonly used composition method and one of the golden rules in photography. Beginners have mastered this method, and the structure of photos can be more harmonious and natural. Guiding line composition can highlight the central idea and key points of photos and make the focus of photos more prominent. Diagonal composition is vivid, which is applicable to both figures and buildings.

Frame composition is also a classic composition method, which uses the elements in the photo to form a frame to make the focus of the photo more prominent. Triangular composition is more suitable for taking symmetrical buildings, and can also be used when many people take pictures. In a photo, the subject needs a background to be less abrupt, and a good background blur can make the subject clearer. Painting is the art of addition, and photography is the art of subtraction. Remove the unnecessary elements from the photo, and the rest is the essence. Try to take pictures from an unconventional perspective, and you can get unexpected results.
