Discover beauty from ordinary life

Sometimes this work could be a wonderful portrait, sometimes also can be recorded epic spectacular scenery of canvas prints. In fact, however, most people don't have too many opportunities to experience or come into contact with those who can help us to create the perfect photo shooting elements, and we also seldom chance to have a belongs to own professional photography studio. Around in the face of this situation, we need to learn from those ordinary and ordinary things to find inspiration, beautiful tends to hide in life, you know.


ready to hang canvas art

German famous painter, albrecht Durer, once said: "for those who can discover the beauty of the artists, the nature is the cornucopia of beauty. Beauty is in the ordinary, even in those things that seemed ugly Content. And the obvious perfect things, in the end, however, are not necessarily a real beauty." His famous painting "The Great Piece of Turf” is the best evidence that view. Therefore, even for life in the modern city of reinforced concrete jungle, or there is a natural element of beauty in our life, and at the same time these from natural elements are usually contain the endless creativity. This natural element may be plants such as trees, flowers, but also may be like a weed or the side of the road some ugly things are often overlooked.

Looking for beauty in the ugly truth of another reason, is that we will be attracted to those who are not perfect, it is human nature. Imagine, a picture of your attention is on a piece of skin bright and clean after PS Model according to the immaculate magazine, or a full face wrinkled old woman's face? Those of the more interesting things in life usually are not perfect. We prefer a more close to reality, rather than to create the ideal beauty. Accordingly, this spirit of quest for fun things, lead us from ugliness to beauty, and back to the things that are often ignored by people.

In from ordinary or ugly in the process of seeking better, we need to try to change ideas and learn to abandon the obvious theme. We can start from our usual daily life environment began writing, including my living environment and working environment. In all the photos, this topic is based on self neighborhood, and I go to work on campus environment. The aim is to see the world differently, and then take out some different canvas prints. Remember, the important thing is the way we look at things, rather than our hands the merits of the equipment, so we can use smart camera phones this convenient tool, to try to find the beauty of the unknown. Here are some advice, to help us better get started.

No.1 low Angle, close to the beat

Easy uncared-for imperfect life often can appear under our feet, for example some leaves and weeds and rusty hinges, and crumbling walls, these are all very good shooting subject. If taken correctly, the degree of its beautiful never worse than a blooming rose. When these themes were taken, however, we need to put down the figure, try to use low Angle.

No.2 the amplifier main details

Even if your hand have a macro lens, then you are lucky, just use it to get what we want. We need to use existing resources and good hand know lens focus recently. If neither macro lens, and did not have the ability to close-up lens, we also can be used to late in proper cutting way to highlight the details of the subject, but it requires that we must warranty card when taken in the early stage of the quality of the images. Remember our smartphone is actually a very good tool to macro photography; they often have the ability to focus closely.

No.3 looking for comparison

Here we emphasize "contrast" not only refers to the tonal on contrast, but any can be produced on the vision contrast in the photo look and feel of the elements, such as material object comparison or contrast motion state. Have to say that's contrast material we create interesting pictures best friend, doesn't even look very beautiful, and by comparing the can also create a fun.

No.4 cause deep thinking

Don't underestimate the power of symbolism. When we see a picture of is not beautiful but full of desolation, we instinctively know to this photo is a kind of lonely, want to convey the feeling of loneliness or forgotten. Taken in recent years, some from the "legacy" seems to have become a new trend, many photographers like to go deep into the people who have been abandoned or forgotten place looking for material, and hopes to add those to your photos or mysterious, or loneliness, or the feeling of terror. The opposite is when we see a little flower blooming in a piece of debris photos, we can feel hope again. Therefore, we should learn to use "symbol" the tool, to enhance the power of the photo.

No.5 don't forget the ultimate artifact - light of photography

Light enough to let originally ordinary things look brand-new, learn to use the light is always every required for all those who want to become a photographer. When we found and ready to take an object, before composing your around its surroundings on laps, look carefully at different positions of the light changes, see if there was a ray pour down, hit on the subject, or to see if have the opportunity to borrow taken by "butyl dahl effect" under the light of god. Big shot of the time we will emphasize a prime-time, at sunrise or sunset. However, even at noon, we can still keep out of the shadows created by the sun to shoot the canvas of the interesting photo prints.

In the end, you may find that by focusing on between those weeds and drain to find interesting topics, this way will make us in any other genre of photography Benefit. If we just focus on the beautiful appearance and perfect time or things, we will miss a lot of wonderful moments. Even meet some unplanned situation or not perfect moment, we are also able to calmly deal with and then shoot better works. Instead, these works will become the focus of relatives and friends talk in the future, and have been down for a few years.
