Experienced photographers are very sensitive to light, most people know the importance of light in photography, but due to lack of experience, do not know how to use light well, miss good photos. There are many cases of such problems in the weekly submissions, and some cases are listed below for your reference.

This photo is more concise and uses side light. The shooting time should be in the morning or in the afternoon. The light is not strong yet, and the picture is soft and natural. If this photo uses backlighting, the light and shadow texture will be better. Under the backlight, the dandelion will not be so realistic, and the picture is more of the translucent light and shadow of the sunlight shining on the dandelion and the color temperature texture of the picture, such as the effect below.
This is a backlit photo, the picture gives people the greatest visual feeling is that the texture of the sun is fully reflected. This effect is optimal only in backlighting. The biggest difference between backlight and shunguang is that backlight will give people a hazy and mysterious color, and shunguang is a very clear illumination of the object, less mysterious.

These two photos are top light, the shooting time should be close to noon, generally top light is not suitable for taking pictures. Fortunately, the face of the character is not black, and there is no excessive shadow as a whole. In terms of light and shadow, the picture effect is still very good. In such a situation, bring a reflector, the effect of the picture will be much better. Whether to take pictures under strong light requires the photographer to have a strong ability to control. For example, using tools such as diffusers and reflectors, strong lights will also take good photos.

This beam is the favorite light in photography, also known as the Tyndall light. The author has a strong sense of light and shadow, and when shooting, the exposure is depressed, so that the texture of light and shadow is well reflected, and the sense of atmosphere of the picture is enhanced. It is a bit of a pity that the main building of the picture is not well reflected in light and shadow. But this light is fleeting, and when you see it, you must catch it in time.
This close-up feels better than the previous one, and the changes in light and shade caused by the sunlight hitting the treetops add vitality to this Tibetan village. If you highlight the subject in the composition and enhance the virtual and real changes, the feeling will be great.
PS: The above two photos are shooting the sunset on Chuanxi Middle Road, this place is easy to shoot Jesus light, because of the unique geographical conditions here, I have been there many times, almost every time I can encounter a great light and shadow effect. It's a great place to take pictures.

Author @ Meishan Manzi
The two photos were taken at another observation deck in the Tibetan village on middle road, and the shooting time should be around 8 a.m. From the perspective of exposure, the author is still relatively inexperienced. Take the morning light and the noon light. Detail is badly lost and the light is hard. When shooting morning light, be sure to be soft and reduce the amount of exposure. In particular, pay attention to the details of the bright parts, and the dark parts can be appropriately lost.

This group of photos, let's not talk about the composition problems. As far as the problem of running out is concerned, this is the most common mistake for novices. The picture taken by the large flat light has no sense of layering, and there is no change of light and shadow. In such light conditions, you can choose not to shoot. If you want to shoot, we can also adjust the shooting angle, from the backlight or side light angle to consider the picture. Especially when shooting such a subject as flowers, backlighting is the best, and shunguang and top light are rarely used.
This photo is the same problem. If the shooting time is in the morning or at sunset, it will be a good photo with a change of light and shadow. The problem now is that the light is too flat, no matter how good the scenery, there is no use of light, and the effect of the picture cannot come out. During the trip, we often rest in the morning and evening and take pictures at noon. If you want to take good photos, adjust the schedule, take pictures in the morning and evening, and rest at noon.

Many people ignore the creation of low light, and for photographers, low light is the favorite. Because in the low-light environment, we can't see clearly, and the picture is relatively unfamiliar. When we use the camera to shoot such an unfamiliar scene, it often gives people a visual contrast, and it is easy to produce a film. Therefore, we encourage everyone to create in the low light, it will surprise you.
This photo is a good idea. It is recommended that the shooting angle can also be adjusted to highlight the reflection of the water surface, the light in the water should be reflected, and the picture can be cleaner.
This photo deserves praise, the author is sensitive to light. The light and shadow of the picture are hierarchical, from the brightest to the darkest, the layers are clear, and the color of the picture is cold and warm, which is very comfortable visually. If a figure appears at the brightest doorway, even if it is a silhouette, the finishing touch is perfect.

I admire the courage of the author, and I look at it cold and shiver. How much courage and perseverance is needed to wait for the stars in such an environment? I used to have the idea that when night fell, it was so cold on the glacier that the tripod couldn't be opened and I quickly gave up (it was too cold).
But it needs to be said that since the author has such a great perseverance, the preparation in the early stage is very insufficient. Starry sky this photo, the foreground selection is too arbitrary. If the preparation is sufficient, there should be a big film here, but unfortunately. The idea of the first one is good, the second one can copy the same idea, why did it end so hastily?
The above is part of last week's photos, due to too many photos, many good photos have not yet been selected, you can pay attention to Douyin (search: wolf photography), every Monday (tonight) there is a live broadcast of Lao Song, there will be more comprehensive reviews. Thank you for your contributions, if you like our review, you can choose some photos (good, bad can be), send to wolf sister, share your own photos to more photographers.
