Floral Shoot
How to keep the beauty of flowers? You can try taking pictures. I believe many people will photograph flowers, but do you know how to photograph flowers well? Now for some tips on photographing flowers.
1. Lighting skills.
Flowers have the most complete color reproduction and clearest shapes when shot in the front light, as each part is illuminated evenly. The flowers in side-light shots have obvious layers, rich tones, vivid colors, and moderate contrast.
Shooting in backlight, the flowers have unique contour lines and the lighting effect is outstanding. If the petals are relatively thin, they can still show a sense of transparency in the backlight, and the effect is very charming.
2. Put on the trinkets.
You can take some trinkets to take pictures with at home. For example, pine cones and stones that are usually picked up by the roadside can be used.
3. Take a photo of a flower.
Find a beautiful flower to shoot, a single flower is often easier to show its beauty, we can use different composition and light, there will be unexpected gains.
4. Center the composition.
When shooting close-ups of flowers, you can use the centered composition to shoot, and the completion rate will be higher.
5. Shoot flowers against an elegant black background.
Shoot the background of the flower black to give the flower an elegant artistic aesthetic. There are generally three ways to photograph black flowers.
One is to use a dark background behind the flowers, the second is to use a faux backdrop, and the third is to use a flash to darken the background.
6. Shoot the details.
When shooting close-ups of flowers, do not shoot the entire flower. We can use a macro lens or a telephoto lens to shoot a small part of a flower, such as stamens, petals, etc.
7. Change the perspective.
Try shooting different styles from other angles, such as front, side or below. For example, you can shoot from the side down with the sky in the background.
Since the sky is brighter than the flower, the picture tends to be more high-key, with light penetrating the petals to accentuate their texture and texture.
8. Shoot with the wind.
The wind can be annoying when photographing flowers. Every now and then, the flowers will sway in the wind, preventing you from taking clear and sharp images.
However, you can slow down the shutter speed to capture the sway of the flowers in the wind. You will get nice images.
Breaking the rules, these eight skills you must learn.
