How can we get a good picture? appropriate light is extremely critical.

Next let's points to discuss how to use the light.

1. in General, we rely on the camera's built-in light meter, can be quite high metering accuracy, we press the light meter readings exposure.

2. backlight photography: backlighting photography, if we still follow the light meter readings to exposure, exposure would be seriously deficient, causing the image failed.

If the outdoor Sun backlight shot, you should press the light exposure then CIS-additional 3-4 levels of exposure; if you are into silhouettes, you should press the background brightness of the standard exposure. In order for the dark side of a certain intensity, we can use reflective plate reflective, and on this basis to determine exposure.

Third, overcast photography: cloudy photography is if we cannot determine the exact amount of the exposure, you should be slightly less favoured exposure; Moreover, cloudy photographic exposure even if accurate, in many cases tend to be slightly less than the exposure of good results.

Because exposure slightly less (exposure reduction 0.5-1 level) not only does not affect the cloudy diffuse lighting of objects, light and light-coloured part of the performance, on the contrary, it contributes to the dark and the dark parts heavier gradation, make the entire screen contrast slightly increase of gradation.

IV. bracket exposure method: in order to obtain the ideal contrast and rich texture level, ongoing portrait photography, landscape photography, particularly advertising photography or still life photography, may wish to use brackets exposure to shoot (or exposure optimization).

Specific actions are: first according to the metering or estimated correct exposure shooting a picture, then press exposure of grade increment, decrement and then shoot 2 or 4 pieces, as if the sides of the benchmark exposure plus the gradual change in the exposure of the "brackets". For example, depending on the light meter readings, use F8, 1/125 sec after the shooting, and then use F8, 1/60 sec and F11, 1/250 sec all shooting a picture, and then select one of the most ideal. This approach appears to be a waste of film, in fact, get a picture of the ideal film than wasted several sheets of film. Moreover, some exposure slightly different film can be used as an alternate film preservation.

The second section photography composition

Photography, they cannot be separated from the rest of the composition, the quality of a work largely depends on the composition.

Here, we still points to discuss how to composition.

A portrait, landscape

Combination of landscape photography portrait portraits called landscape, belongs to a variety of portrait photography.

If the performance of the scenery, people on the screen is very small, scenic plots, the scenery photography. Therefore, shooting landscape portraits, photo Memorial or photographic works, if you put one Pat far rather small, although see figure but face difficile, may seriously affect the photo effect or God-like performance, therefore, should be closer to the people make it bigger.

So we should pay attention to the screen when shooting, generally speaking, the whole body as the equivalent of edge-1/2-3/4, big-bust is equivalent to the edge of 2/3-3/4, bust is equivalent to edge higher 3/5 or even 4/5 (shooting half pictures is strongly recommended that you make stunning eyes at the top left picture below 1/3).

Anyway, people head off screen above should have the right amount of space to look the coordination and a certain comfort should be can't give people a sense of oppression.

Second, the scenery photography

Many people like scenery photo, sometimes even at long distances to get creative, but the results are unsatisfactory, shoot out of your own, as if seen and actually taken are two different things.

This is what sake? not note composition--this is the failure of a very important reason.

So, what should our specific to action?

First, we must first clarify what we have to take what the object is, we want to show, then we went to the composition of the intention to shoot.

Composition in addition to special needs, should generally be in balance, otherwise it will be biased or formation of unstable. Or unbalanced peer, but visually you want to think about balance, and not biased. In order to make the picture a balance, in addition to symmetrical composition, or through screen perspective of leverage for layout, you can use the Visual and psychological sense, stability of lever — one or two voltage sense like layout balance. For example, the left half of the screen is a towering mountain peaks, the screen is at the bottom of the water, the Department is the sky in the upper part, because of the existence of scenery and gradation of contrast, the screen looks left heavy and right light, composition and very harmonious. Suppose that in the lower-right of the screen with a water surface of sails, or in the picture on the top of the sky people a flying eagle, sails or flying eagle even far too small, compared with Alpine insignificant, but the screen left a sense of Alpine-biased disappears, the composition of the entire screen is balanced.
