To take a good close-up photo

To shoot a good local features, not only will zoom lens - in to the telescopic end, or close to the subject as far as possible to press the shutter, seriously, should be taken to observe and find out first before to record local image, then combine shots and flexible collocation of field environment elements, in order to make an impressive feature works.

Local feature is the first idea transmission

Before we get started, let's get a sense of what the visual appeal of the local feature is, and how it affects viewers. Just like shooting minimalism works, local close-up can also be regarded as a kind of design composition. The purpose is to be able to take precise or ingenious close-up shots and pass through the light, color, line of the scene... And other elements observe, creating a visual impact beyond the normal. Local features usually have two modes of expression. One is to directly shoot the subject, but only to frame the local focus to strengthen the core value of the picture. The second is to achieve the purpose of deliberately re-shaping the image focus by shooting other parts related to the subject, and the feelings presented by such works are often more compelling. The viewers can also understand the words and phrases the photographers want to say through these images with unique visual appeal. However, no matter what kind of shooting method is used, the story in the picture is interpreted through local images, so how to successfully convey the image idea is the first important topic for the photographer to think!

The devil hides in details

The most important reason why most people don't take local close-up shots is that they can't find something to shoot from the picture in front of them. Because we are so accustomed to the daily things happening around us, subconsciously we will ignore the seemingly insignificant local images. Therefore, the first step to find local images worth recording is to use the spirit of "looking for the devil in details". That is to say, when we are looking at the foreground of the eye, we can pay more attention to the "small picture" that occurs in the picture. Or looking at the bride in the carriage, you can try to focus on her hand and the fan you want to throw out. ? However, after learning to observe local scenes, we will find that not only the opportunity to tell stories with images becomes more and more, but also the window lattice that can lead viewers to open their thinking, so as to improve the intangible value of the images being recorded.

The use of subtraction photography

So in fact, local feature is also a kind of subtraction photography. Can think of, whether to shoot telescopic lens or minimalist theme, all of us need to think about the picture composition trade-offs, and the same is true with local features, only need to use more delicate heart to look for and photograph echo, the correlation of main body or thinking want to borrow the close-up images express what state of mind or intention, to make the image more persuasive, and can successfully struck a chord with the viewer's, therefore, how to use their camera take a break a stalemate in the composition of works, depending on how the photographer will subtract photography to the limit.

In fact, unless it is commercial photography to capture close-up pictures, is particularly exquisite camera, camera and lighting equipment collocation, otherwise normal player in local image creation, should be familiar with oneself camera or lens focal length as the main tool, to be effective in every second of time get satisfactory image works. In the case of a higher-order portable machine, it is light and portable enough to capture local stories of street shooting. The high quality and high performance of monocular enables the photographer to face the special environment or compact shooting schedule. Even smart phones that have become quite popular now, with apps with rich filter function; can also take local images with fu. Of course, if you care about the final texture of the image, you should still choose a camera that can record RAW to ensure greater post-processing flexibility.
