Analysis of landscape photography construction technology

Lead: The importance of composition in landscape photography is self-evident. What to keep in the picture, the focus of the lens and the theme you want to embody are entirely up to us, so the training of composition is the focus of our landscape photography. Let me introduce three techniques of photographic composition:

1. Triangulation method

The dichotomy can also be called the golden section. In fact, this word is no stranger to us. There is a golden section in mathematics curriculum, and everything can be explained by the golden section. The golden section mainly shows that the proportion of things is well chosen, so the word is widely used in life. This also applies to photography. Then the golden section is also widely used in nature. In other words, when shooting, the subject of photography is placed in one third of the picture, which makes people feel that the picture is harmonious and full of beauty. The golden section is called the trisection in photography, that is, the yellow plane is divided into three equal parts by two straight lines in the horizontal and vertical directions. We put the shooting theme on any straight line or the focus of the straight line, which is more in line with people's visual habits. When shooting, you can directly call up the TIC-tac-toe auxiliary line of the camera and put the shooting theme at four intersections, and the picture will come to life immediately. For example, the winner of the following photo contest, the main body of the flower abides by the requirements of the trichotomy, so that the picture is balanced and beautiful.

This photo is not only balanced in composition, but also taken at a low angle by symbolic means, showing the tall and straight posture of flowers. And EOS 7D's precise restoration of color also makes the flowers look vibrant.

2. Curve method

Curve method is also an ideal composition method in photographic composition. In life, people's eyes will be attracted by the soft' S' curve. For example, dancers twist their bodies in the process of dancing, so that the picture presents an S-shaped composition pattern, which has the characteristics of long change, making people look rhythmic and have a beautiful, elegant and harmonious feeling. When the subject needs to be represented in the form of curves, the first thing that comes to mind is S-shaped composition. This composition method is often used in rivers, streams and paths.

This is a small landscape composed by curves. This ingenious composition technique makes the whole photo full of interest, giving viewers a more comprehensive feeling of the scenery of the river, and fully presenting a rare detailed observation of one side of the water and soil in travel photography. At the same time, the impeccable expressive force of 5DII full-frame camera for picture integrity is also an important factor in shaping such a good work.

3. bisection

In photographic composition, the picture can be divided into two parts at the ratio of 2: 1, which forms the effect of echoing left and right, echoing up and down, and the performance space can also be widened. One part of the picture is the main body and the other part is the foil. This composition method is often used in people, sports, scenery, architecture and other themes. The following wonderful award-winning works adopt a dichotomy composition method.

The ratio of the flower body at the bottom of the picture composition to the sky above is about 2: 1, and the priority of the whole picture is very clear, which attracts people's attention at a glance. At the same time, this photo also controls the light very well. Large yellow sunflowers blend with the color of the sunset, and the backlight shows the texture of the flowers well. In addition, the accurate color white balance performance of 5D II also adds a lot of color to the picture.

However, these three techniques are just suggestions to make the picture more beautiful. If we want to highlight a theme or capture a moment, we certainly need other ways to deal with it. After all, photography, like painting, needs a little unique creativity and a flash of light while observing the basic aesthetic laws. Next, let's enjoy other outstanding works of the photo contest:
