Simple and easy to learn flower photography skills

Flowers, one of the players must have been a lot of photography darling at ordinary times in suburban neighborhood, park or holidays to travel, see the lovely flowers grass, always can't help but put on them, let alone to catch a flower! Just how the plants had lovely? After listen to run skill talent to teach and learn, maybe even weeds can also produce exquisite canvas prints.

Using diffuse light shooting flowers

Diffuse light is a kind of very downy light, an object in under the irradiation of the light is no projection or projection is not obvious, using the shadowless lamp is similar to the operating room. Conditions of the cause of the light outside is baiyun day, there was no obvious point-blank light on the subject object, light through the multiple reflections, has lost its obvious directivity. Unlike overcast light, diffuse light more bright, but also very soft. By diffuse light to shoot flower plants, the picture had no obvious relationship between light and shade, reduces the contrast, can show simple sense of flowers and level. At the same time, the light is very suitable for macro photography, to avoid stray light disturbance to the lens. If taken in indoor flower plants, we can also be artificially create diffuse light, use white objects, such as a blank sheet of paper or cloth, build a circular arc around the flowers, formed a kind of downy diffuse light, as light is better than indoor light a lot.


The side light of flowers

Light your subject, on the other side has a clear direction of projection, it can show your subject's skin texture, strong stereo feeling and depth, modelling effect is good. Side light has strong modeling ability, it can make the subject object produces obvious light and shade, increased the canvas prints the picture is tonal, to a rich picture. The great light than give a person with strong visual impact, high contrast, resulting in a strong artistic effect. So, the side light color attunes photography level than the much more positive light. The side beams of light to shoot flowers, some of its parts subject to direct sunlight and the other part are on the sky or the scenery around the scattered light and reflected light illumination. Side under the light of the flowers, rich strong expressive force, when the side light is more intense, is the object of contrast is strong.

Backlight display Mosaic texture effect

Photographing can make the object of brightness and saturation can be improved, make the suitable light illumination bland objects present a beautiful sheen and good texture. In flower photography, backlight with high contrast of light and shade composition, shape into a refreshing art. Backlight can draw the outline of the line of beautiful flowers, but also can make the body of the subject flowers with deep dark background to distance, increase the scene depth, highlighting the main body, in a dark background, Mosaic texture to get a good present. Using photographing flowers also to pay attention to the problem of exposure compensation, should be appropriately increased exposure according to the practical situation, otherwise it will lead to screen underexposure, lost the effect of the backlight.

Adjust the exposure compensation show flower color

Shooting flower, if flowers filled the entire canvas prints, picture camera measured exposure for flower color reduction basic accurate, if accounts for only a small part of flowers in the picture, for the metering machine is less "light", the background of light and shade and the surrounding scenery will have great influence on the camera's exposure. When the flowers in a dark background to shoot, the camera's light spot should be focused on the flowers above, if the background color depth to exposure, then the camera's metering system will be deceived and led to the transition of flower exposure.In the same way, light color background can also cause underexposure flowers, affecting the color of flowers restore itself. Experienced photographers, can according to the actual situation, to the appropriate camera measured exposure compensation, avoid too much the impact of the environment on the flowers, strive to achieve the real flower color reduction, concrete is light color background to increase exposure, while dark background to reduce exposure.
