How to photograph the reflection of people's environment

In photo shooting reflection (mirror), use reflection and the characters and environmental photograph echo, often can form extremely form aesthetic images; Or with the aid of optical illusion effects have the broad field of vision, make the picture appear more grand, imposing manner; Reflection is also very interesting visual elements, can be canvas prints the ornament of the most vivid images. Photographer grid can hardly is capable of that, when taken fully application of various environmental factors, on the reflector wonderful reflection of the world.

brilliant prints

Suitable for reflection, can produce or specular environment is mainly the water, glass or reflective walls, road surface and all kinds of building has a smooth surface of small items. The surface and glass material is most suitable for shooting, video is the most clear. Especially viewing environment is very concise, reflection effect is better. If it is in the outdoor filming, in reflection to consider into the scenery, the environment, and the characters set each other off becomes an interest. If it is have some smooth surface, in the form of three-dimensional deformation formed on its reflection to a certain extent, proper application can produce the result that is very interesting. In short film reflection must be good at details found in the environment, adjust the Angle hold good reflection ratio and the shape is the focus of such photographs taken.

No.1 water/ground

Shooting ground/reflection in the water, and low Angle can incorporate more environments. Because of the reflection and shooting Angle, change the camera and the Angle of the ground reflection can change the size and shape in the picture. In addition to consider the distance between the reflection and the photographer, the farther the distance, the proportion of reflection and live more close to the shooting Angle effect is not obvious. Of course, there are some conditions are not suitable for the etheric low Angle, avoid because of character distortion affects canvas prints and beautiful picture.

Character is located at the gap between two architectural elements, strewn at random have send. As close to the surface with a low Angle, characters and the reflection ratio equilibrium, the composition is symmetric. Using wide Angle lens, the surface appears very wide, and highlight the prospects of underwater pebbles, increased the level of detail.

No.2 the location of high reflective surface

Table above the ground or other reflective plane reflection is often used to shoot, because normally only on people bust, should notice more and reflection on the combination of Angle and ratio control. The overall adopt symmetrical picture form, fusion frame type composition, and there was a change in the symmetry. Use smooth desktop form reflections, although details are not clear, but photograph echo, as well as the prospects and person increases the visual tension.

No.3 glass wall

Reflection film on the surface of the glass wall, pay attention to the observation, adjusts the Angle of filming the location according to the characters; make more clear reflection on the glass. In addition, should pay attention to avoid direct light, reflective glass that could damage the picture complete; with low sun Angle, should avoid to the characters of shadow to the reflective cover reflection on metope, and affect the aesthetic feeling. Closely with real scenes and reflection, in full view, can give a person also is true, can't tell where is where the feeling of the shadow. On the partition wall or partition real scenarios and reflection to modelling, lines and levels more abundant.

No.4 small reflective objects

In life there is a lot of glass or other objects can be formed on the surface of the smooth reflection, combined with the items form the characteristics of the images are very fun. Can produce a lot of reflection of the object, such as cars, water droplets, glass or metal products, etc., this reflection may appear in any position, can only be produced a lot of attention, observe carefully creative canvas prints pictures. Such photographs taken tend to focus on producing the reflection objects, focal length and aperture control depends on the specific circumstances, to identify prospects or the characters in the vision, to establish connection between reflection and characters.
