Capture the ideal landscape photos

When representing a forest, leave some space in between.

In a dense forest, there are not only tall trees, but also some weeds and shrubs on the ground, which may make people feel crowded and irritable. When taking this kind of landscape, should notice, must observe more, adjust the Angle that take a view, do not fill up the photograph, leave space, the effect with proper density just can make a person feel comfortable. The landscape can be flat grass, rocks or streams.

Be sure to capture the center of interest when photographing a forest

As with any landscape, a large area of forest requires the photographer to find a center of interest for the image and focus on that location. Otherwise large areas of forest may give a person a feeling of confusion, do not know what to pay attention to.

In fact, choosing the center of interest in the forest is relatively simple. It may be a strangely shaped tree, which makes people admire the wonder of the creator. It may be a winding path through the woods, leading the beholder's eye to a winding path leading to a secluded spot; It may also be the river surrounding a forest area, presenting the viewer with a myriad of tender feelings.

Choose scenes that match the trees

It's impossible for any subject to self-reinforce, and it takes other objects to make it stand out. We can't because the rich thick trees and ignore other scene, filmed in forests or trees to use when the surrounding scenery to foil, the most convenient way to surrounding rock, shrubs, bushes, or the distance the sky and mountain contour as a foil, such not only can replacement subject environment, still can make main coruscate gives more charm.

Forest supine pat, build vertigo visual experience

There is no such thing as a classic backbeat. In the vertical and towering dense forest of some trees, the wide-angle lens can be used to take the inverted shot, which can form the convergence effect of a large number of towering lines, enhance the momentum of the picture, and give the viewer a sense of oppression and vertigo.

In the dense forest with a wide Angle lens shot back, can create a sense of oppression, vertigo picture. It should be noted that the surrounding trees should be similar and arranged in a regular way. The thickness should not be too different, and the lines of the trunk should be gathered in the center of the picture. Branches and leaves cannot be disorderly, color should not be too much, a solid color of the sky or leaves as the best background. In addition, in this picture, the contrast between the forest and the sky is very large, the dynamic d-lighting shooting effect is better.

A light and shadow sketch of trees

In the forest of luxuriant and luxuriant leaves alone photograph certain local small scene, often can have absorbing effect.

The main body of this kind of forest small scene must have better light and shade, color or body ability to attract the attention of appreciator, because this must choose main body scenery thing meticulously. The background should be able to convey the shooting environment, not too disorderly, nor too clear and distracting the viewer.

In this picture, the "tindar light" requires a large contrast between the light outside the forest and the light inside, that is, the light inside the forest should be darker. This requires the photographer to darken the interior of the forest by lowering the exposure so that the tindal light is more visible. In addition, the area of light transmission between the forest and the outside world should not be too large, otherwise the light contrast between the two sides is not enough, and the tindar light cannot be generated.

You don't know the secrets of the stars

Digital SLR lenses have some resemblance to human eyes. For the point light source, if you squint your eyes, you will find that there is very obvious star effect around, very charming. Using a digital SLR camera can also shoot this effect, and the star effect is more obvious.

In order to shoot an obvious star effect, several conditions need to be met:

(1) The photographed light source is a point light source.

(2) The aperture of the lens should be reduced, and the smaller the aperture, the more obvious the star effect.

Observe the effect of different stars, you will find that some of the number of stars, some of the number of small, and the shape of the star is not quite the same. After checking the parameters of the lens and comparing the number of stars, it can be found that the number of lens aperture blades corresponds to the number of stars. In general, the more aperture blades, the more star number; If the number of leaves is less, the number of stars will be less. The more important rule is: when the number of aperture blades is odd, the number of star is 2 times of the number of blades; When the number of leaves is even, the light ray diffracted from the aperture of the lens will make the star number overlap symmetrically, so the star number is the same as the number of leaves. For example, if the number of aperture blades of a lens is 6, then the number of stars shot is 6. If the other lens has an aperture of 5, the number of stars it can shoot is 10.

In sunny days, the light in the morning is usually rich in color, showing red or orange tones. Therefore, the morning is a favorite time for photographers. Due to the Angle between the ground and in the morning the sun is very small, photographer physical distance from the sun, the sun's rays must pass through a thick atmosphere to irradiate the photographer's location, so the short wavelength of the blue, green, yellow, the light will be blocked by the atmosphere, only long wavelength orange light to illuminate through the atmosphere to the ground. So the morning light is red or orange.

But before the sun rises, the environment of the sky and the ground may be cool and tonal. At this time, if the color temperature is appropriately lowered, a cold and quiet picture can be obtained. The light may be so dim that you need a flashlight or a camera level to determine the level of the camera. If the conditions are convenient, you can customize the white balance operation (Nikon for manual default white balance), or set the automatic white balance shooting. In the cold picture taken in the early morning, there will be local light at the rising position of the sun, which forms a clear contrast with the overall dark environment. It is very beautiful.

In the morning, the sun rises quickly, and within a few minutes or a dozen minutes, the color of the sun light will change greatly. Therefore, shooting light and shadow works in the morning should grasp the opportunity of shooting. At the same time, the color change corresponds to the change of light color temperature. The color temperature of the full-bodied red light in the morning is about 2000K, and in less than an hour later, the color temperature may change to 3000K ~ 3500K. If the photographer wants to take the red or orange scenery in the morning, the color temperature of the camera should be changed in time.
