Learn these eight skills to make a 60cm cylinder change 180cm in seconds.

Every landscape designer is a senior "liar" who can make a profound landscape in a narrow jar. If we learn the following, we can also cheat! First, explain two technical terms: focus perspective and depth of field.

Near big and far small, near high and far low, near far dense, near wide and far narrow, near thick and far light.

This word refers to the art of photography, mainly through the height, width, shape, color, light and shade, bed slope, the use of heavy wood and stone, etc. , which shows the far-reaching degree of the landscape to the maximum extent. Generally speaking, a 60cm cylinder can be changed into 180cm.

So how do you actually operate? It is important to master the following common methods.

A very common technique is to make the bottom bed into a slope with a low front and a high back, with a foreground of 4-6cm and a background of 8- 10cm or more. Visually, it immediately appears much higher. Take the works of IAPLC20 17 Landscaping Competition as an example, and pay attention to the bed thickness.

According to our visual imaging principle, distant things reflect less light into the eyes, so the image is small. On the contrary, nearby objects will reflect more light into the eyes, so there is a phenomenon of "near big and far small". The collocation "size relationship" of materials is extremely important. From big to small, we can deceive our visual senses and feel the effect of "depth of field". It usually requires our patchwork arrangement.

Another example is Ada's masterpiece "Pursuit". Any two heavy wooden materials are connected when they are taken out separately. Depth of field in place, from large to small, from coarse to fine.

Generally speaking, concave scenery is more likely to produce a sense of depth than convex scenery.

Convex synthesis

Concave composition

Roads or streams paved with cosmetic sand will divide the panorama into two parts, which has a strong effect on enhancing the sense of depth of field. Segmentation should run through the front and back, with smooth slope or curvature, from wide to narrow, and finally disappear at the far end, with a sense of infinite spread and a long history.

Due to visual error, with the change of the distance between eyes and objects, the thickness of air increases, which makes the color of objects change in human vision. Dark color will feel close to us, light color will feel far away, with strong contrast near and fuzzy contrast far away, as shown below.

As shown below, we can find the contrast between light and dark. From top to bottom, it is bright-dark-bright: the foreground is bright, the middle scene is dark and the background is bright. This treatment highlights the depth of field around, making the cylinder bigger and the visual effect stronger.

This relationship can be expressed by the color of aquatic plants. Positive aquatic plants, light green, or hairy aquatic plants are "bright" (red, pink, orange, etc. , cosmetic sand can also be used), negative aquatic plants, dark green aquatic plants, or the primary color of bones is "dark"

Using red aquatic plants as the background will also increase the depth of field.

The millstone mountain in the background below is too dark to close the distance, and the sense of depth of field is somewhat lacking.

Using the size and shape of leaves of aquatic plants to shape the depth of field stems from the perspective relationship between distance and smallness in vision. Wide front and narrow back means that aquatic plants with wide leaves are placed in the foreground and aquatic plants with narrow and thin leaves are placed in the background. The picture below is a demonstration of the winning works. The aquatic plants with wide leaves in front are in obvious contrast with those with narrow leaves in the background, which enhances the depth of field effect.

As a transition, the grass in the middle scene usually plays the role of connecting the past with the future, thus achieving a natural harmony and distinctive effect. However, if this method is used properly, by canceling the grass in the middle scene and extending the low grass in the foreground to the middle scene or even the background, there will be a sense of grandeur and the depth of field effect will be enhanced.

Hollow structure landscaping, using caves to enhance the sense of depth of field, as shown below.

Background paper and photography skills are also important. It can not only enhance the sense of depth of field, but also leave room for imagination. No wonder some grass friends saw the photo and said,' I always feel something behind me', and the background was mostly light blue.

If we pay more attention to these points in landscaping, there will be several layers of bad scenery.
