Today I share 5 photography tips for landscape photos. Photography masters are used, novices will learn it.
The sky in the landscape photo, if there is no cloud embellishment, will be very empty, the picture is not rich.
For example, in the following figure (Fig. 1), the sky occupies half of the space of the picture, but there is no trace of cloud, monotonous. In addition, the shooting angle and tent color are not ideal. If you change to a brightly colored tent and put some cooking utensils next to it; the photographer steps on a stool to shoot down, removing too much sky, the effect should be better.
Figure 1
Relatively speaking, in the picture below (Figure 2), there are colorful dots in the sky, which make the originally monotonous buildings colorful. Therefore, in landscape photography, the right clouds will make the photo more beautiful.
Figure 2
Of course, the number, location, and color of the clouds must be just right. In the picture above (Figure 2), the clouds are relatively rich, and the birds on the left side of the picture are somewhat redundant. Wait for the birds to fly away and shoot again, the effect is better.
Fun Center, also known as Interest Focus. That is to say, after looking around the whole photo, have a focus. This focus is similar to the "finishing touch" of writing an article. For example, in the picture below (Figure 3), the boat is the interesting focus of the picture.

In addition to the "point" shape of the fun center, there are also "line" forms, and even the fun centers of multi-line forms. For example, in the picture below (Figure 4), the center of interest is a C-shaped line facility in the lake.

The fun center should have a strong correlation with the scenery photographed, such as boats in rivers, cattle and sheep in grasslands, harvesters or ridges in farmland, and so on.
The simplicity of the picture is the basic requirement of the photo, that is to say, there can be no messy lines and colors. For example, in the picture below (Figure 5), an S-shaped country road, a conspicuous line guides the viewer's line and dominates the overall situation.

In a similar case, there is the following picture (Figure 6), where the Great Wall, as a line, becomes the center of interest in the picture.

The lines in the landscape can be used as the center of interest, the vein of the picture, and the basis for composition. Lines can be roads, rivers, trees, light and shadow. As shown in the figure below (Figure 7), trees are lines and shadows are lines.

As for "color", it is recommended that a photo has a tone, and then it can be similar colors, or cold and warm colors can be contrasted, but do not mess with colors. As shown in the figure below (Figure 8), the comparison between cold and warm.

Why do you say that mountains and forests are beautiful scenery? Because there are mountains and forests, human beings can live. So from the beginning of our ancient ancestors to feel kind to these elements. You can hunt and gather in the mountains and forests; you can take water and fish in the rivers. Figure 9 below.

Therefore, photography enthusiasts should be good at finding places with dense mountains and forests and abundant water and grass, where there are not only rich elements and diverse forms, but also endless subject matter. For example, the following two figures (Figure 10 and Figure 11).

The light in the morning and evening, with soft texture and the best angle, can make the scenery rich in layers, charming in color, and changeable, especially when shooting in the backlight, there will be a strong sense of atmosphere. For example, the following two figures (Figure 12, Figure 13)
