How to master subtraction principles of landscape photography



Shooting :
Dam wide always make the human mind aboard. Since in ancient times, prairie gave birth to countless heroes. Dam is also the ancient emperors hunting paddock , the purpose is to allow future generations to forget tradition.
Everyone went to the dam that always gives immediate beauty to the sidewalks. How to go in front of the beauty of choice is faced by every photographer. This photo shoot of 70 ends with the effective compression of the screen space , the flock as a subject , as the back woods and grassland back, better highlights the flock. Especially sheep raised under backlit dust that infected with the golden yellow , and light staggered, HVAC contrast , can suddenly catch the viewer's eye. A little disappointed that the grass is not able to avoid the bottom right corner .

Shooting :
Misty Pine Island is a place of pure and noble , every winter , the snow cover the earth , and make it become a white evening mist on the river will rise , the formation of rime trees in the river , like the fairy tale world. People who come here , always lost , lost in this beautiful fairy tale .
This photo with 200MM telephoto shooting , sunset shines on the ice, just take a partial line . Smooth ice surface reflects the warm and cool colors contrast other locations , like an abstract painting . Personally think that the place is in front of deficiencies can be less dark point , the top of the tree reflections add to the mix might look better.After all above,it's necessary to edit photos by hdr software for beginners at the back stage if you are a beginner.
Lens : EF70-200mm f/2.8L IS II USM Focal length : 200.0mm

Shooting :
Yuanyang is countless photographers’ dream land. Not long ago, terraced successfully inscribed on the World Heritage List. The pitch, the earth melody, shows the wisdom of its people. Here, you can admire the beautiful and magnificent terraced fields , and if you're lucky, you will encounter fog wonderland.

How to improve the level of scenery photography (4)



9. Shooting in the golden time
   When I chatting with a photographer recently, he told me that do not shooting at daytime . He just shoots at dawn and dusk . Because at that time ,the light is the best . And he find that the scenery photos can be “alive” at that time.
   Theses “golden” times are the best times for shooting scenery and portrait. Because that is the time the “golden light” show up . Another reason I like these times is that the angle of light and the scene effect of light -- produce the alive background and levels and vein.
10. Consider the horizon
   It's a cliche, but it still works. First of all, when you start shooting scenery photography, thinking of the placement of the horizon from the two points .
   Is the horizon straight? Although you always can adjust it through a variety of tools later. Done it when shooting would be more simple.
   Where the horizon should be when compositing? The general composition is to place the horizon in one third of the image, (one third, or a third below) instead of the center of the image. This is not certain, of course, you can break the rules, but I find that unless they are special and amazing photos. The third law (rule of third) is always applicate.



11. change the Angle you observed
   When you find a scene worthy to shoot , get out of the car and open the camera, climbed over the fence, put the camera up to the eyes, choose a different focal length. And then before you getting to another site , click the shutter.
   We will all do so -- but that does not let me get the kind of attractive photos.
   Spend more time on photography, trying to find more points of interest. May be you can start from looking for a different location (walk the path, looking for a new point of view), on the ground to shoot in a low Angle . Or find a high that good for shooting.
   To explore the surrounding environment, and varied from different angles you will find something really unique. Or using collage making software or photo montage at then end, you can also get some different ideas.

6. Lines

   When shooting the scenery photography ,you should ask yourself a question: how to make my photos attract others’ eyes ? In fact ,there are many ways ( using the front scene is one of them) ,but the best one is to attract the readers’ sight into your photos by the lines.
         


   The lines can deepen a picture’s depth of fields and levels. And they can also attract people’s notice by the patterns they made up.

7. Make the photos active

   When most people thought of scenery photos , the first thing in their mind is a peaceful ,quiet and even passive situation. But the real scenery photo is not totally still . In order to express activities in the pictures, you need to add activity , mood and interests to the pictures. Such as the wind in the wood, the wave near the beach ,the flow of waterfall, the birds on your head and the moving clouds.

   Catching the activities means you need to use the slow shutter (sometimes you need several seconds). Of course , this is also means that more lights would move to the sensitivity. And you should use the small aperture or filter ,even shooting at dusk or dawn because of the week light.

  


8. Take advantage of the weather

   A scenery will change dramatically with the change of weather . So choose a suitable time to shoot is very important.

   Many beginner think that a sunny day is the most suitable weather to shoot out side. But the cloudy weather with rain and wind coming actually provide you a chance to better mood and refracting feeling. Trying to find a chance to shoot storm, misty and active clouds , the light through the dense clouds ,rainbow and sunset and sun rise and so on . Use these changeable weather but not just waiting for a sunny blue sky . You can add some online photo frames and  try photo effects software at the end , this will make the photo more sensible.
