On the artistic accomplishment of photography

Introduction: After more than 60 years' development, photography has gradually evolved into an independent plastic arts category with various varieties and forms. This is the inevitability of the development of photography art and a sign of its maturity. When we appreciate photographic works of art, on the one hand, we are moved by the profound connotation revealed by photos and infected by the sincere feelings expressed, on the other hand, we are intoxicated with the aesthetic enjoyment and enlightenment brought by photographic art.

Photography creation must be based on real images and must be in the same time and space with the subject. It not only requires the author to have the same profound thoughts, keen observation, life accumulation and extensive knowledge as other artists, but also requires his own creation. Without direct images, photography will be difficult to move. In order to constantly innovate in art, there are new artistic conception, new angle and new composition. It is not only the road that others have taken, but also the road that others have not taken. ? Read thousands of books and take Wan Li Road? It is the highest pursuit of a photographer. As a photographer, reading is thinking, and walking is thinking. Reading is to enrich oneself from the cultural and artistic accomplishment, and to enrich oneself from other sister arts. To improve yourself, walking is another way of thinking, from the first feeling thinking and original thinking at the most basic level of life. It turns out that many photographers' excellent works are not made at home out of thin air? Come up with it? But by running around in reality, exploring and discovering, and coming out with your feet.

The function of photography is not only to objectively and truly record the existence and scenes of things, but also to reflect the mechanical and chemical effects that some people understand. As an art, it is not only a reflection of objective existence, but also an image schema language for photographers to express their thoughts and feelings. Everything in the objective world itself is complicated, and every moment captured by the photographer is a reflection of the photographer's understanding, thinking and special feelings about this scene at this moment. Every photo is entrusted with the photographer's deep feelings and is a reflection of the photographer's real voice.

The ever-changing moving pictures captured by photography art should be carefully planned before shooting, and the subjects should be investigated in detail to understand their cultural history, customs, geography, climate, transportation, background information, etc., to understand the overall situation and grasp the key points. However, some unexpected changes often occur during the shooting process. In this case, it is the best time to test the adaptability of photographers, and often they can shoot wonderful shots. Photographers have the ability to reflect intuitively. Quick response? Accurately capture this precious moment; If the photographer is slow-witted, rigid-minded, and obedient, he will only watch the wonderful lens slip by his eyes and even miss the best opportunity. For photographers, improvisation seems to have some contingency, but? Success? Chance comes from the inevitability of own labor creation.

When we appreciate some excellent photographic works, we are often impressed by the perfect artistic form and profound ideological connotation of the works, so neat, so relaxed and free, so free and easy. It is true that this photo was divided, observed and captured by the photographer from the perspectives of history, philosophy and literature, which contains profound social significance and gives people a deep impression. Photography represents a point in a myriad of worlds, a moment in a long process, an expression in changeable mood fluctuations, a section in a complex society, the interception of space and the solidification of time, and its essence lies in exquisiteness. Photography plays a different role in showing wonderful moments, which is the requirement and limitation of photography art, but it is precisely the specialty of photography. We should grasp the key and essence of things flexibly, accurately and decisively in the moment of time and space, grasp the climax in the process of action and grasp the best point in expression, showing a unique beauty of refinement and solidification.

Extracting the pure black and white world from the colorful world proves that simplicity is a great philosophy, which requires photographers to have keen observation and observe the structural beauty of objects; Photographers are required to have profound discrimination, avoid provocative details and see the physical beauty of objects; Photographers are required to see the color beauty of objects from the complex interweaving of things. Black and white photography uses black, white and gray to represent the world. The simpler the tone, the stronger the generalization. Pure black and white leaves more room for reverie and re-creation, which makes people get more visual impact or more visual enjoyment and sublimate into different aesthetic feelings. The simpler things, the more rich people can imagine.

Color is a gift from nature and a catalyst that can mobilize people's emotions. Color directly affects the soul. It expresses emotional tremors through the warmth and coldness of tones, the vividness of colors and the strength of color levels. They are a kind of refinement and a kind of consciousness. The author expresses it by the feelings of the soul, and the audience can only experience it by feeling. This is the transmission and approach of an idea. In photography, color is an important artistic language. The arrangement and treatment of color is an important subject that photographers must attach great importance to. We can control the color by means of composition, angle, light, special effects and post-stage, and establish a good color order in the picture. The beauty of color lies not in a single color, but in the combination of colors, which set off and contrast each other.

Photography records objects through light and shadow, and the essence of photography to express feelings is light. Photographers are so good at controlling all kinds of light and changing all kinds of pictures to express their different feelings. Light plays the role of modeling, selection, perspective and beautification.

In the eyes of photographers, everything in the world is made up of points, lines and surfaces. The composition of the formal beauty of the point, line and plane pictures in photography art is decided instantly by the photographer in the landscape frame, and is decisively intercepted from the three-dimensional world space and the long river of time. Photographers are faced with colorful and constantly moving. An excellent photographer, like a talented conductor, organically combines points, lines, surfaces and other modeling elements, performs his own duties and blends them into one, interweaving photographic images into a beautiful and moving symphony.

Brave explorers constantly break through the obstacles on the way forward, make unremitting efforts to find the artistic language and artistic characteristics of photography, and gradually form the aesthetic laws and creative principles of photography itself. Its expression techniques, skills and creative ideas have solid scientific and technological support. Photography is a comprehensive art involving many disciplines and fields, which contains extremely rich contents.

Photography is both a witness of history and a record of reality.

Photography is not only a catharsis of feelings, but also a metaphor of theory.

Photography is not only the carrier of pure beauty, but also? A savage battle? Heaven.

Photography is not only the accumulation of culture, but also the epitome of life.

Photography is both the sustenance of escape and the source of wealth.
