Do you know the following outdoor photography skills

Warm spring after winter, is like a beautiful sentence said have can have outdoor scene photography. Many friends have confidence in special outdoor photography, outdoor photography portrait still life and landscape can rely on ample light conditions can be taken out at least during the day would never fuzzy photos and make it beautiful canvas prints. But a lot of friends and is very confused, why you shoot out of photos always have so a little wrong, always can't compare with the works by masters in photography? Don't worry, I'll show you should know which several elements of outdoor photography.

First, the focal length of the aperture sensitivity, outdoor photography

Many photographers are not professional of metering equipment, but it is not very important. If you don't know how scene lighting conditions should match the exposure intensity, can have a try with F16 rule. This is very interesting, is when the environment in broad daylight, the camera Settings Av gear, F16 aperture, shutter speed is set by you, the reciprocal of ISO sensitivity. It will be of great help for future learn M file manually.

And focus problem, is often not a simple problem in photography fans. If you have more different focal length of lens, whether it's zoom or fixed focus, if you immediately according to the present, like a burn Distance to shoot, how will do you choose? Is this a problem of creative intention, wide Angle lens can be used to portrait, wide Angle to scenery, because of the wide Angle can accommodate more objects in the field of vision, make the person can put itself in the landscape, the aesthetic feeling of unity with nature. The telephoto can more people be fond of, because it can make beautiful blur effect.

In general, if we want to shoot in the outdoor beautiful blockbusters, using RAW format is very necessary. Do you often take pictures of the feeling than the master, because you lack the late correction step? RAW biggest tolerance for nondestructive record pictures and details, when using PS or LR adjustment only need enhance sexual change on color, generally can be very good. So when you take the photos in the camera always don't feel satisfied, don't lose heart, can want to come back late, early composition kung fu appears more important.

People who are not going to do later, will be flexible to use good machine can provide a photo set straight. I prefer the photos in the style of VI (bright), because the camera color deviation of liquid crystal screen is always to look on the computer, you see the desired color in the LCD but it does not bright enough.

Second, Auto exposure is not always reliable

Outdoor photography, you will meet another big challenge is used up. "Backlight blackface", "photos a grey" these are any explore photography truth people encountered problems. First of all, I want to say is the first point; the camera's automatic metering is not solve ninety percent of their shots. Automatic metering is most applies only to a piece of itself has very beautiful scenery line.

The choice of shooting time. Because we take pictures outside, if it's within the schedule can do adjustment according to the local light changes, if purely his own an outdoor photography practice must choose afternoon near the time of the evening. And nearly evening sunshine changes very quickly, to take only an hour or so of the most beautiful and the softest light. This time you can get most charming sunset photo which will be fantastic on canvas prints.

The so-called light, it is usually says of the light, backlight, side light, side along the light, the backlight, top and bottom light. But there is no how complicated, we are the most common is the top and side light and backlight. Because there are 360 in a shooting Angle to choose from, and many times along the light background is not what we want. When this is going to be discriminating, or let the characters look correct exposure, or let the background correct exposure, it is great light than we used to say. The author's practice is to retain the Ming forsake shadow, reason is the dark parts of the details in the later can retrieve, department do not.

And we want to make photos more aesthetic feeling more able to bear or endure look, in addition to the above the "light" to make a choice, also can combine with shadow. In short is not exposed to light all of characters. This kind of environment is in commonly tall construction or the places where the trees. We need to do is to make the skin accurate exposure (spot metering), dark environment is fine, because we want to is a kind of have the effect of alternating light and shade, such pictures looks more has the flavor of the photography.

Third, the use of the filter to be reckoned with

Many contact photography friends don't like to buy one or more filters, they think this aspect of the cost as well to strengthen in the lens, and they think the filter can be completely replaced by the late kung fu. Disputes over filter do have too much, and the author's point of view is not play filters, the road to your photography would lack a kind of color.

Filters should buy camera when merchants would like you to meet. The most common filter is UV mirror, pure protection function. Our "truth series photography tutorial" popular science to everyone, inferior UV mirror is has the loss on the quality. As long as is a friend of his photographic equipment typically do not add to, because if the camera really smashing, take out the difficulty of the UV mirror Bashan may make you unforgettable.

The author thinks that any photography for players of the two kinds of irreplaceable filter is medium grey lens and polarizer. The grey lens is used to play slow shutter, very practical for large aperture lens in the sunlight. Polarizer is usually heard CPL filter. Even the haze weather there is also always the blue sky white clouds is very serious in the north. And outdoor scenery photography of the master's high saturation, CPL filter of utilization rate is extremely high, because it can disappear in addition to the light of polarized light, colorful is king. So if you think your scenery pictures than the works of the masters, maybe just a piece of CPL filters between you.

So someone will say, I don't need to filter, because Photoshop can do anything. I can't deny this point of view, just think, early kung fu can do a good thing, just try not to use later to deal with. If you say the PS Powerful, of course, is completely made of pixels a CG masterpiece has out of thin air, and PS can't do something. Only in this way, where is the meaning of photography.

Landscape photography actually says hard easily also not easy, because it can segment of subject matter is very much also, in view of the different scenarios to response in a different way, need more comprehensive and solid photography skill can shoot well. May wish to refer to more than a few points, the hope can in 2016 you can have more photography breakthrough! By the way, canvas prints is the best way to display your photography. You can order some of them printed from your artwork which will give a big surprise.(www.customcanvasonline.com.au)
