How to be an excellent photographer?

The first is observation. You must take your eyes as a lens and pay attention to everything around you. Most people are very careless about life, and most people have a "wide" observation of the special feelings that material can express. I once had such an experience that on a crowded bus, everyone was doing their own thing in the process of reaching their destination. Chatting, making phone calls and listening to music are all busy. But I observed a quiet picture in the restless crowd. A young couple stood there when the bus shook. The man held the railing in one hand and the shopping bag in the other. That woman can't reach it because she is short and there are many people around. Attention! Not this picture, the real picture is a small detail. After the driver braked suddenly, the woman just shook and didn't fall. The key point is that the girl's little white hands have been pulling the boy's skirts tightly, and the joints have become slightly white because of excessive force. This picture is very impressive, which just expresses the intimate relationship between two people and the degree of dependence in their feelings. It's a pity that I didn't bring my camera at that time, otherwise it would be great to pay attention to the angle and give a close-up with a light, not ordinary people. You must be more sensitive than ordinary people. In my opinion, all the details in life deserve our careful attention. A simple and dirty trash can will do. The key lies in what emotion you give it and the way you interpret it.

The second is accumulation. You can't just read without remembering, just like browsing. When I came back, I asked you if you had observed anything. You said you observed a lot of very good things. I asked if there was anything. Your eyes are staring and your brain is blank-this is the characteristic of brain death in medicine. I find that no matter reading articles or listening to music, many different pictures always come to mind. When reading a novel, a "movie" is shown in your mind corresponding to the plot, while enjoying music, many stories are being presented. This is what is commonly called "picture sense". The reason why the brain stores a large number of pictures lies in accumulation. I used to go to the streets to accumulate text materials, but now I want to accumulate picture materials. I used to just read magazines, but now I will pay attention to the composition of excellent pictures. I seldom go out now, but I will definitely bring my camera when I go out for fear of missing a good picture.

Finally, think. You should deeply process the accumulated things through deep thinking of the brain. Unless it is an instant snapshot, it takes enough time for each photo to be perfect. Be cautious in composition, angle, distance and light, and treat the creation of works with a professional and rigorous attitude. I often tell myself "Don't press the shutter easily" when taking pictures. It should be noted that the later thinking should be combined with practice, and the new problems in the process of doing prompted me to further think about what shortcomings need to be improved. I press the shutter carefully every time, but every time I finish a photo, I have to press the shutter many times. A photo often takes ten minutes or even dozens of minutes.
