What are the techniques for shooting sunrise and sunset?

1. The best seasons for sunrise and sunset are spring and autumn. In summer, these two seasons are later than sunrise and earlier than sunset, which is beneficial to shooting. In spring and autumn, there are more clouds, which can increase the shooting effect. Half an hour before sunrise and half an hour after sunset are prime time for shooting. Before shooting, you must think about the effect you want to show, the shooting location before sunrise, and choose your own seat and suitable prospect.

If conditions permit, it is best to shoot in the wild. After all, the air in the wild is much more thorough than in the city. But whether in the wild or in the city, the location should be relatively open and the terrain should be high. When shooting in the wild, choose a higher place, such as the mountain, and choose the angle of view from high to low, so that there will be no unnecessary objects blocking the sun near and on the ground when shooting, which is beneficial to the performance of the main content. When the sun rises, the mountain peaks will have rich effects in the big backlight. Of course, if you have a wide field of vision, such as a large area of water, it is also an excellent location to shoot the sunrise and sunset.

3. Cloud is a natural reflective object in shooting, which can spread the red light of the sun, thus constantly changing the color and composition of the work. Clouds can also be the subject of shooting. But pay attention to what happens when clouds cover the sunset; Light will come out from behind the clouds, which will add a very touching effect to the photos.

Shooting the reflection on the water will add a lot of color to the photos of sunrise and sunset. Many excellent photos of sunrise and sunset are taken by the water, because at sunrise or sunset, the sparkling water reflects beautiful rosy clouds. Shooting the reflection of the water surface will add a lot of color to the photos of sunrise and sunset, and a calm sea surface or lake can reflect the scenery in the sky. It presents a mirror-like image, which is always disturbed by the breeze blowing over the water. Leave more dazzling light on the water, and draw a light path from the horizon to the foreground of the picture. When the sun goes down, this light path will extend to your eyes.
