How does photography highlight the subject?

Naturally, if you shoot an object in a neutral background, it will attract the attention of the viewer. This is not an arduous task, but it is a very simple but very effective method, which can ensure the audience's attention to focus on the predetermined object accurately. You can also use a textured background, but make sure the texture is not too bright, otherwise it will distract the audience from the main object.

2. Central position

Another effective way to convey your message to the audience is to put the theme at the center of the composition and make sure that there are no other distractions in the background and the side of the subject. To further highlight the theme, please use the vignetting effect.

3. The depth of the scenery

Using a large aperture of f/ 1.4, f/ 1.8, f/2.0 or f/2.8 can reduce the depth of field and focus only on the subject. By reducing the depth of field, everything except the subject becomes blurred and subtle.

4. Light beam

You can focus a beam of light on an object, and the rest of the object is in the shadow, but it is not completely invisible, which can be compared with the spotlight aiming at the only singer on the stage. The dim light of the outline of the object will create a special atmosphere without distracting attention from the main object.

5. Weak light and local shadows

Put the object in a place with highlights and shadows, and find such an angle to capture the object, but not all, only part. In this case, you will have to determine the area to be illuminated in order to attract the viewer's attention, and everything else will be hidden.
