What should I pay attention to in photography? I want to learn photography now, but I don't know what photography needs.

Photography tips Many times, people will buy a digital camera because of impulse, and at first they will take 3000 photos because of novelty. After that, most cameras were shelved. Why? A very important reason is that you didn't take exciting and enjoyable photos. You don't have a good PP to upload to China and you can't share it with your friends, so you lose confidence and interest. Don't rule out that you have tried: I will read the manual attached to the camera when I have time, and I have collected a lot of professional skills or skills at several China stations ... but this rarely helps you. Especially for those who want to keep "aiming at shooting, simple and happy", those professional technical or equipment requirements are obviously too far away from you. Always remember that there is a proverb in photography: first-class photography depends on creativity, second-rate photography depends on technology, and third-rate photography depends on equipment. So don't be depressed because you only have a broken digital camera. That's not an excuse that you can't shoot a good PP, what you have to do now is to return to zero. Start by avoiding common sense mistakes (always correcting those you don't know or care about), and then master some successful experiences or classic skills of "gaining vision, aiming and shooting". Photography is not as difficult as you think. On the contrary, anyone can take vivid, interesting or exciting photos. It doesn't matter if the photography experience is blank. The pursuit of simple operation and quick use is no longer an extravagant hope. The following contents are arranged for you. How are good photos taken? Pressing the shutter is the beginning and the end. The beginning is always simple, but the ending is quite different. How are those charming and lasting photos taken? What do they have in common? The textbook of New York Institute of Photography gives us an answer: those works with photographer's eyes are always so classic and charming. More specifically, if the photo you take meets the following three criteria, it is an excellent work even if it is not classic. The first trick: let your photos have a clear and distinct theme, (is it a person, a still life or a thing? You need to be clear, not ambiguous, not comprehensive. The second trick: a good photo must attract the attention of the subject. You need the audience to pay attention to your subject at once, because this subject is the core of your expression. The third trick: make your photos more concise, and all elements that can't set off your subject or even distract your attention should be compressed or excluded. Digital photography skills of people There are many photographers who are famous for shooting people in the world. In their photos, you can feel that the subject is "telling" a story for you or expressing an emotion. Why do we often see that the photos around us are not infectious? This is the reason in many cases. Whether it is a single portrait or a multi-person shooting, before we visualize the characters (or tell stories), let's take a look at the common mistakes and try to correct them. A simple way to keep the portrait unchanged: some top photographers deliberately deform the portrait when taking pictures of big people, which is a high-level artistic expression. For mass photography, portrait deformation is a low-level and fatal mistake. The fourth measure: The simple way to keep the portrait unchanged is to stay as far away from the position of the person being photographed as possible, and try not to use a wide-angle lens. Portrait photos are suitable for shooting with 0-90mm lens. 2) How to get a shallow depth of field to highlight the characters: If the scene around the characters can't help or set off the subject's "storytelling", we will try to cut or blur the background. The fifth measure: The way to get a shallow depth of field (blurring the subject background) is to use a large aperture and a long focal length as much as possible, and (if possible) let the characters stand as far away from the background as possible. 3) Make your subjects more natural "When I photograph someone, I always want to avoid the way they are photographed." Famous photographer john long Gard said. Obviously, it is very important for the character to relax during filming. People will show their feelings more naturally when they relax. If it is not a snap shot (or a sneak shot), people in life are usually uncomfortable (unnatural) in front of the camera and need communication to make him/her forget to shoot. 4) Pose essentials: With the help of environmental props and postures, the image will be more vivid and not rigid. The third measure: let the subject stand, bend, lean, sit or lie down according to the scene. Painting skills: Pay attention to the hand movements of the painter when using the overall posture flexibly, such as touching the head, touching the hair, caressing the face, taking off the cheeks, pressing the corners of the mouth, touching the neck, pulling the skirt, touching the arms, akimbo, resting the thighs and caressing the feet (such as pulling the shoelaces). In short, hand movements can be explored freely all over the body, and the core is to keep natural and help express emotions. In addition, you can also hold props, such as hats, glasses, scarves, books, cigarettes, football, a flower and so on. , to activate photos and make images more vivid. The first trick: when shooting a single portrait with POSE, pay special attention to the head and shoulders of the subject. Usually, the head and body should not be in a straight line, and the shoulders and feet should not be parallel. The ninth trick: When shooting a portrait of a single person, the photographer keeps a distance from the subject during the day to avoid the deformation of the character. In composition, diagonal way is usually the safest. The first trick: If the subject is really difficult to pose, dress or figure is not good, then please try to take a bust or a big photo, and the expression of the subject is the only thing you want to capture. 5) Portrait shooting under special light (scorching sun, night, bright background) The first trick: When shooting in strong sunlight, you need to pay attention to the brightness of the object to avoid unnatural eyes and use side light to make the object sharp; Try to shoot people with less backlight. The sunlight on the lens may degrade the optical elements, thus damaging the image effect. When backlight shooting is needed, just block the shadow on the lens and don't let the blocked objects (such as hats, palms, etc.). ) enter the picture. It is difficult to take portraits at night. Bad PP is either too dark to see clearly, or the background is too bright and dark because of blunt flash. For beginners, simplicity can alleviate contradictions from three aspects. The first and second measures: first, improve the sensitivity and turn off the flash (forced not to flash, except the camera flash system is very clever); Secondly, let the subject keep his posture as still as possible in a bright environment (such as under a street lamp); Finally, use a slow shutter (preferably a tripod) to make the exposure sufficient for imaging. The first and third measures: the background light is generally supplemented by a flash to make the foreground portrait brighter. If you can use a scattering flash, the effect will be softer. When taking indoor photos, set the exposure to a bright background. If the flash is not turned on, the imaging subject will be very dark. If only the subject is exposed and the flash is turned on, the subject background will also be underexposed; In order to achieve a natural effect, we can first measure the exposure of the bright background outside the window as1125 and F, and then use the scattered flash of F at the main body (shoulder position) to balance the indoor and outdoor exposure. Snapshots and multiplayer photos 1. Why are snapshots more attractive? People's expressions in a natural (or casual) state are the most authentic. In the eyes of photographers, some people call it "reality". Many excellent photographic works are completed by snapping, whether it is taken by one person or by many people. In real life, many photographers are confused and have nothing to shoot. That's because novices haven't really opened their hearts and put their cameras around their lives. The first 14 trick: Go to the street, the theme activity place or the scene of an emergency, capture the expressions and relationships of people inside and outside the incident, be careful not to flash, shoot quietly, and use telephoto lenses more, so that the ambush shooting effect is better. The speed of snapshot can be trained, but touching works can be shot. The real meaning lies in consciousness, feeling and discovery. Natural posture and creative modeling 1) In daily life, it is inevitable for friends to get together, relatives to get together, children to grow up, take photos to commemorate and record the atmosphere. This conscious shooting activity makes the subject pose naturally. The first five tricks: taking a group photo in life, posing naturally and shooting the atmosphere is not only your primary consideration, but also the relationship between people. 2) Except for the natural POSE, all dramatic and creative pose photos can get a refreshing and brand-new effect. Peng Zhong's photography summary; Successful creative attitude is inspired by understanding and creating life. No model can teach you to make creative POSE, but you can try more.
