Enrich the level of the subject accurately achieve the shooting intention

The camera is so simple, so straightforward, that any question about the subject appears redundant at first glance. You aim at a horse; the horse is the subject; Aim for a house, a person, a car, and they are the subject. To some extent this is true, but not all of the subjects are simple to confirm. Or, apparently, the immediate subject is likely to be something larger or part of an idea. This is important because choosing what to shoot is the first step for everyone. This is the beginning of the intent, which will affect the subsequent shoot and later processing.

Isn't it just a matter of style? The subjects are all the same, but different photographers do different things, don't they? Doesn't that complicate the simple question? The answer is in the intent -- in your shot. If we can only see a scene or something, in its own way to respond, then yes, this is a matter of style that will be the focus of the book in the second part. But if you choose a part of the subject or other things, such as a project, or a photograph of covers extensive content, then you should find what you need from the intent. Your camera determines your performance.

Simply about "subject" may let a person think here is single, can be defined, independent of things, such as I mentioned before the horse, people, houses or cars. But many of the subjects were not so clear-cut and difficult to define. A specific three-dimensional object in front of the camera might just be part of a larger object, just one aspect of what the photographer wanted to capture. Many photos do have multiple levels. The first heavy may be obvious, one thing dominates the composition of a picture, but into the next level it will be another part of a larger, broader subject.

Color also attracts certain photographers as an independent subject. Even more than the light, the color provides the possibility of abstract composition, regardless of the specific subject of the image; object different color combination will be contagious.

Similar to color is the space in the lens - seen as an abstract whole. In the image above, there is a small fishing boat barely recognizable at the bottom, focusing not on fishing boats but on a wide sky and sea. The hue of the vertical gradient is an abstraction that allows the photo to shine through the graphic effect. A series of other photos in this book is also a big background lined with a very small "subject", the intentions of some of the photos are very different, small objects are indeed the subject, rather than the space around it, but for whatever reason, it is so small is intended to. Reason may be to delay the viewer to notice it, or show the importance of the environment, so the intentions are not always obvious when first saw photos.
