Pomegranate flowers are the warmest flowers in May, the other day has been wanting to shoot pomegranate flowers, the weather has been raining recently, this early summer is a rainy season, yesterday just happened to see a few pomegranate flowers in the green belt on the side of the road, the weather is cloudy, so I photographed a group of pomegranate flowers in May.
In May, the pomegranate flowers are red like fire, and the pomegranate flowers bloom in early summer, and I think they should like the bright sunshine. However, in May, jiangnan rain is particularly heavy, and there is a heavy rainstorm from time to time. Usually, when I walk by the side of the road, I often pay attention to pomegranate flowers, and this time may have been a little over the flowering period, missing the most delicate moment of the flowers. Another reason, I guess is that there is too much rain, as if it has been beaten by the rain, and it is a bit listless.
Photographing close-up flowers naturally requires photographing the most delicate and beautiful flowers, but after wandering around, it is difficult to find the most beautiful flower in your mind. It feels as if each flower has a little flaw, such as the flower has fully opened, such as the petals are wrinkled, such as no foreground, such as the flower bud can not see.
The cleaning aunt who cleaned the green belt asked me what I was doing with the photos I took? I said what didn't I do? Just like it. Enjoy this process of searching, turn yourself into a flower, and rejoice with them in this season.
Shooting red and yellow flowers, the exposure value is always a little difficult to control, in order to prevent the red overflow, when shooting, I generally choose aperture priority, reduce a little exposure compensation. But if you shoot flowers against the sky, then you have to do the opposite, you must increase the exposure compensation, otherwise the flowers photographed are dull.
This is the exposure principle that we usually say "white plus black minus". What is "white plus black minus", "white plus black minus" means to increase exposure when shooting an overall bright scene, and reduce exposure when shooting an overall dark scene.
In May, the durian flowers are dazzling, in the thick green pomegranate branches, the small durian flowers, like flames hanging all over the branches, bright and moving, become a beautiful scenery in early summer!
When you see a pomegranate flower, you will naturally think of the allusion to the pomegranate skirt.
The blooming pomegranate flowers are layered on top of each other, like the skirts of ancient women dancing, and the red skirt makes the women bright and moving, so the ancients also called the red skirt "pomegranate skirt". The durian red skirt reached the Tang Dynasty from noble concubines down to commoners, and became a very popular costume.
The flowing skirt is as beautiful as the pomegranate blossoms, showing a charming charm. "Pomegranate skirt" has become synonymous with beauty.
I prefer this vertical composition, the flowers are not very enthusiastic, but the green leaves in the foreground are blown by the wind and become a natural green filter in front of my camera. In the haze, the pomegranate flowers in the distance are faint, giving people a mysterious feeling.
If the flower type is not ideal, take fewer close-ups of flowers. These pomegranate petals overlap, and many of them can't even see the flower buds, and such flowers seem to lack souls. I don't know if it is the relationship between rainy and sunshine for days?
Shooting flower photos, in addition to taking close-ups, you can also shoot the middle scene, a little farther away scene, "thick green ten thousand branches and red a little" can show the enthusiasm and vitality of pomegranate flowers! With some environment, the flower photos are more elegant and quiet. It is a pity that there is no ancient environment of pavilions and pavilions here, otherwise the picture is more poetic.
Welcome your attention to likes, and happy photography with Blue Greek.
