During the lotus season, are you out? This year, the rain in my hometown is quite heavy, a lot of lotus flowers are washed by the rain and can't open their eyes, the water in the pond has also spread over the steps, we found a place where the water is not too deep, and started this group of shooting, recording our summer in the lotus pond this year.
Photo suggestions about lotus portraits:
1, pay attention to safety is very important.
2, with a telephoto lens, you can shoot the lotus flowers in the distance.
3, shooting time, not at noon, when the sun is fierce, the light and shadow are not conducive to shooting, the flowers are not full, and there is no too late, too late then the lotus flower will be closed.
About the photo pose of the lotus flower portrait:
Lao Sun does not have a graceful figure, nor can he dance, this cheongsam is still borrowed from his mother, how do we pose under such conditions, first look at the stiff shooting posture in the picture below, and the hand that has nowhere to be placed.
Adjust the shooting posture, put the arm facing the camera to the back, the face of the character is slightly turned over, so that the overall look is not much better, the posture is softer and more natural, the following picture tells us that the photo of laughing is very good.
In addition, don't be too exaggerated, so it seems that there is no neck, not good-looking, as shown in the following figure:
The overall character's photo posture is somewhat twisted, the head is twisted too much, and the character shooting posture is uncomfortable at the same time, the photo effect is too good.
We should also conform to the shooting scene in the shooting posture, and form a sensory beauty with a natural and non-rigid shooting posture. In order to achieve the effect of human scene fusion, it will not make the character jump in the picture because of improper shooting posture. After adjusting the position of the character's head, the whole is much more harmonious.
Without exaggeration, the posture of turning the head, the character looks obliquely downward, holding a fan, and the overall appearance is dignified and generous. The same is the photo posture of turning the head, and different shooting angles will also have different photo effects. There will be some weeds at the bottom of the picture, and we will cover it with lotus leaves, which can both embellish the picture and help us avoid the clutter.
There is also a classic pose, when you don't know where to look, you can look at the heel. With one foot in front and one foot in the back, naturally look down at the heel, a common classic pose that works in any scene.
About the composition of the lotus figure:
First, let's take a look at the composition errors in the following picture, which are also two mistakes that are repeatedly emphasized:
Mistake one: The direction in which the character looks should be left blank, so that the character's vision is wide and meaningfully leaves a sense of story. But the above picture has a feeling of hitting the south wall, so when we shoot, the direction of the characters must be left with a certain space, so that it is reasonable.
Mistake two: Shooting at the edge, which means shooting too close to the edge. In this way, the picture is crowded, and neither the characters nor the props are fully displayed. Even if we solve the error one, we must pay attention not to shoot too close to the edge behind us.
Although there are many ways to compose a picture, it is necessary to leave a blank space in the front when shooting. Like the figure in the above picture, it is necessary to leave space for the direction in front of the figure, and it is comfortable to compose from the visual senses.
Increase the story of the picture, shoot some of the details of the picture is no harm, do not care about body language, do not care about facial expressions, use a part of the body as the background, shoot some lotus details, so that the picture has a certain storyline is also good.
