Huatian, what are the shooting methods?

Huatian, what are the shooting methods? With the spring breeze, the ocean of flowers is soft waves rolling. The sea of flowers reflects the beautiful mountains, winding paths, clear running water and houses with white walls and tiles in the distance, all of which converge into a sea of flowers. What a magnificent picture! So, what are the shooting methods of Huatian?

1, seize the shooting opportunity

If you want to take a good photo of Huahai, it is very important to grasp the time. For example, lavender just opened in June, and it may not be as beautiful as what you see on TV or in pictures. It should be said that July and August are the best time to enjoy lavender. Another example is that the flowering period of rape is long, usually about one or two months. When it first opened, light yellow and light green intertwined, very fresh; When it is in full bloom, it is golden and very brilliant.

▲ The flowering period in July and August, from a distance, layers of purple waves fluctuate with the wind, magnificent and charming, like a dream.

Usually, you can consult local flowers and grasp the shooting opportunity. Morning and afternoon are the better shooting time of the day, when the light is softer and the colors are brighter. Or when the drizzle stops, the flowers are full of water droplets and colorful.

▲ At sunset, the clouds in the sky add color to the picture.

Or at night, under the dreamy starry sky, the sea of flowers reflects the stars all over the sky, echoing each other from afar, which is wonderful.

Step 2 make good use of light and shadow

Flowers are brightly colored, even and soft along the light, which can truly record the color of Populus euphratica, and when the sky is taken as the background, it can better show the "blue" of the blue sky.

▲ Smooth, uniform and soft, which truly records the color of flowers. When the sky is the background, it can better display the "blue" of the blue sky.

Side backlight and side backlight can brighten the flower sea from the rear and side respectively, creating a rich layering and three-dimensional effect.

▲ Backlight is also conducive to expressing the three-dimensional sense and space sense of the picture.

In addition, the scattered light in rainy days can also be used more. The characteristics of scattered light are that there is no obvious contrast between light and shadow of the subject, the contrast between scenes is small, and the three-dimensional sense is not strong, which is suitable for expressing the sense of spatial perspective. Because the lighting effect is dull and soft, it is especially helpful to present a quiet atmosphere.

▲ Scattered light is more conducive to presenting a quiet atmosphere.

3. Color application

When the picture is full of the color of a single flower, the effect is not as amazing as we thought. When shooting, you should actively look for the colors around the flower sea. For example, when shooting lavender, we can look for solid colors with high saturation such as blue sky, orange clouds and green bushes, and highlight purple by contrast.

▲ Choose the blue sky to highlight the purple of lavender.

▲ "colorful"

▲ Compared with the blue of the sky and the yellow of rape flowers, although yellow accounts for a small part, it is still the main body of the picture.

▲ Use tulips of different colors to form strips for composition.

4. Composition and layout

In addition to the most basic golden section, symmetrical composition, foreground composition, diagonal and S-shaped composition, it is a better composition method to learn from the "blank space" in Chinese painting. Simply put, flowers, as the main body, only occupy a part of the width of the picture, and deliberately leave the corresponding picture space blank. Therefore, the scene in front of us looks clean and tidy, and gives the audience a free daydream space.

▲ Guide line composition

▲ Symmetric composition

▲ Leave blank, make the picture neat and orderly, and give the viewer a space to daydream freely.

In addition, pay attention to the shooting angle. Sometimes, if we try a novel angle, we can often take unusual photos, such as shooting at a very low angle, shooting from a high angle, or even aerial photography.

▲ High-altitude shooting can show the lush scene of the flower field, which is very spectacular.

5. Increase the points of interest in the picture

It is very important to find a visually interesting point for the picture, especially when shooting a theme like Flower Sea.

Pay attention to the guide line of the picture when shooting. You can find and arrange your visual points along the guide line, such as the sky, sunset, a tree and a house.

▲ Sunset and sky are points of interest in the picture.

▲ Purple Flower Sea+Fairy Tale Cabin+Van Gogh Sunflower, interwoven into the most desirable fairy tale picture.

Small animals such as bees and butterflies can also add vitality to the picture if there are no conditions to shoot large flowers and find people to enter the scene.

▲ With flowers as the background, it is fantastic.

In addition, you can add environmental elements to capture local characteristics. For example, the shooting of rape blossoms, Luoping rape blossoms combined with local karst landforms have a special local charm, and the exquisite hills are like an island floating in the sea of rape blossoms; The rape terraces in Jiangling, Wuyuan, climb the winding peaks and reach the sky, full of rhythm; Rape flowers in southern Anhui often live together with Huizhou folk houses; However, the rape fields in the west have the feeling of wider sky and clouds. Using these contents when shooting will help to increase the connotation of the picture and increase the visibility.

▲ Rape flowers are often mixed with Huizhou folk houses.

The above points are to provide some reference for everyone to shoot the flower sea. If you notice these ideas in the shooting, you can apply them flexibly. I believe that practice will make you understand.
