Skills of shooting orchids

With the improvement of living standards, photography has already entered thousands of families. Orchid photography equipment requirements are not high, ordinary digital belt macro on the line, but to take good pictures of orchids, especially macro. It is best to use tripods and shutter lines, and SLR cameras also use reflectors to pre-rise to reduce machine shock. When taking pictures, choose the time when the light is good, and adjust the aperture and shutter speed. OK with a simple background.

First, be fully prepared.

Digital SLR camera or portable computer. The equivalent focal length of the lens should be 28-200mm. Also provide tripod or monopod, shutter line, small spray can (if conditions permit.

In artificial dewdrops). A number of medium-sized background boards, small reflectors, etc.

Second, the time should be early

Orchids are best photographed on the day of the opening ceremony of the flower show or the next morning. first, after careful selection, pruning and a night's rest, the stamens are full of vitality.

The photos of orchids are full of vitality: second, orchids are less affected by indoor light sources and have high freshness. And shoot too late, due to the influence of growing period and human factors. a considerable number of orchids will be ahead of schedule.

Wither. Fangzi's elegant demeanor is no longer.

Third, the position should be comprehensive.

The position determines the photographer's ideas and habits. After entering the exhibition hall, the orchid should be observed in many directions. Show the beautiful posture of the orchid from the best perspective. Stand in the front position.

A (or a pot) orchid can be shown completely: side position. Can better reproduce the texture and liveliness of the orchid: if there is a background light. You can choose to overshoot to enhance the orchid.

Sense of transparency. choosing to shoot upside down can also show the venation and outline of orchids.

Fourth, pay attention to the use of light

Using light is the key and soul of shooting orchids. Under the smooth light, the orchid receives light evenly. The picture taken is bright. But there is a lack of hierarchy. Backlight can well show the quality of flowers.

Feeling and transparency are very distinctive. Side light can not only highlight the texture and outline of orchids, but also show a good three-dimensional sense. Lively and lasting appeal. Many cinematographers shoot orchids.

First choice is to use up. It is wise to choose the booth near the doors and windows to shoot orchids. In this way, the image quality is high, the color saturation is good, and the image is fresh and delicate. If you use macro flash photography

Orchid close-up. The background will be dark. Avoid shooting at the extremely bright booth. That's a big contrast. The orchid looks stiff.

5. Accurate exposure

Due to the large number of light sources in the exhibition hall, there is often a deviation in automatic photometry through the camera. at this time, it is necessary to flexibly use exposure compensation according to the situation on the spot. or surround exposure.

VI. Understand the setting.

I once met a cinema friend who had just come into contact with a digital SLR. He was always blurred when shooting orchids. It turned out that he used a speed priority of 1 stroke and 15 seconds, which is very difficult for a novice to hold a shot.

Take a clear picture. Therefore, the setting of camera parameters is very important for shooting orchids. The sensitivity can be increased appropriately when the light is dark. DSLR can be used to ISO 800. most portable computers use IS0.

400; when the speed is less than 60 seconds, it is best to shoot with a tripod (or monopod) with a shutter line. to prevent machine shock; in indoor orchid shows, many booths are not allowed to use background panels (

Cloth), at this time, the background can only be falsified by setting a large aperture: for beginners, putting the exposure mode on Auto can also produce satisfactory results in most cases.

Seventh, the composition should be concise

Good flowers also need green leaves to help, primary and secondary matching is fastidious. If there is no proper background to set off, even the best orchid photos will appear dull. In indoor shooting, the vast majority of moviegoers

Use close-up to compose the orchid, so that the petal shape, core column, lips and other detailed features of the orchid and the noble, elegant and plain temperament of the orchid can be shown incisively and vividly, so. The composition should be simple.

Cleanliness, not only of moderate size, but also of overall beauty. Strive to make the subject bright and gorgeous, the object gradually farther away and blur, and the picture as stable as possible. At the same time, we should also deal with flowers and flowers.

, flowers and buds, flowers and leaves, flowers and visitors, as well as the relationship between prospects and the background, so as to echo each other, not to rob the host, let people feel the orchid Tsinghua outside, indifferent to it.

The quality in. The composition should also prevent the flowers from being too small, the details unclear, and the main body not prominent.
