How to shoot a good scenery on a cloudy day with a dead white sky?

1, learn to use the light of special weather.

When shooting on cloudy days, the general ambient light will be dim. At this time, tripod can be used to ensure the clarity of the picture, or exposure compensation can be appropriately increased to correct the brightness of the fine picture. You can also use polarizers and warm filters to enhance the color saturation of the picture and strengthen the main body.

2. Change the shooting angle

The sky is always gray on cloudy days, so you can try to avoid the sky occupying a large area in the picture when composing. Make the best use of the scenery on the ground, not the gloomy sky. Although there is no strong light and shadow effect on cloudy days, the color reproduction is very accurate, and the composition should be expressed in vivid and diverse ways.

Step 3 find the contrast

Although the cloudy sky is gray, there is not much visibility, but the color of vegetation will appear brighter under scattered light, which can highlight the gloom and depression of the sky through the strong color contrast of reference objects and create visual appeal.
