On the importance of retouching

I usually only like dynamic brightness, contrast and saturation when retouching. The following are photos taken by Huawei's mobile phone with its own camera, which are obtained through its own adjustment function. The retouching skills come from personal experience, and the original drawings are provided for your reference:

Although retouching is very important, the angle and composition of the original picture are also very important! Retouching is like making up. The original picture is like skin foundation, not so good, and retouching is not necessarily much better. (Of course, if you are a master retoucher, don't say it ~) The two different flowers and snails in this group of pictures are my favorite perspectives ~ Hee hee.

Because the background green leaves are close to the depth of color (non-technical terms, it is good for everyone to understand), it is not easy to distinguish between primary and secondary. After lowering the brightness, the color is more prominent, and the green leaves in the background are darker, which makes it easier to highlight the protagonist.

This group mainly looks at the color matching and pattern of the original picture. The former paid special attention to the hierarchical relationship of the next three flowers when shooting, and the soil in the background was quite small and fresh ~ the latter mainly liked color matching.

This group is mainly supported by flowers! The outline of the flower is quite clear, with a little saturation, beautiful!

Red is quite light-absorbing (not professional enough ~ I personally understand), which means that even on cloudy days, the effect is still bright and the color is slightly dazzling. Therefore, special attention was paid to the lower brightness and exposure when shooting, and the lower brightness and contrast were adjusted later. Of course, this picture is not good either. I will try again later!

Yellow is also quite absorbing light, so the saturation will not move too much. But the background color and color in this picture are close, so I pay more attention to brightness and contrast.

The brightness of white flowers is very important. Too low brightness will appear unhealthy, too bright will burn, so the brightness must be appropriate. Then there is contrast, which is to reduce the background color that is brightened at the same time and highlight the white flowers. Finally, the saturation, a little modification will make the small yellow flowers next to it more prominent and make the overall color more lively.

As a photographer, I am still trying to crawl!
