Everyone has heard that photography needs to do "subtraction". More accurately, in the process of photography, no matter in the early stage or in the later stage, some "trade-offs" need to be made.

After mastering the basic principles of photography such as exposure and composition, the misunderstanding that many photographers are prone to make is that they do not know how to choose, "covet too much" in the shooting process, and try to accommodate all the scenery worth recording in one photo.

So today, let's talk to you about what choices should be made in the process of photography and how to make a good choice:

1. The "greed for too much" mentioned above means that there are too many subjects in the photo.

We all want to make our photos detailed, and people can't help but look at them and even think about them, but we can't include too many irrelevant or conflicting elements in our photos because we also have to consider whether the subject itself is expressive enough.

There are too many subjects in the picture, which looks like "taking pictures at random." Let's take a look at those excellent works. The subjects of the photos are basically very clear, and being able to show the obvious characteristics of a single or a few subjects can give the photo a soul.

two。 Many people like to seek sufficient light when shooting, hoping that their photos look bright as a whole, but the so-called "bright" also needs to be set off by "dark" to be more obvious.

In fact, we can take a look at the histogram of the photo, there will be a certain dark tone and highlight, which does not mean that there is something wrong with the exposure of the photo. On the contrary, this sense of contrast between light and shadow will make the photo look more layered and contrast, adding some authenticity.

Instead, there is no dead-angle exposure, and the lack of dark shadows in the photo will make the photo look stiff if it is not used properly.

We have also discussed the importance of shadows in previous issues. Shadows can enhance layering and stereoscopes in photos, so we don't have to avoid shadows and shadows when shooting.

3. Colors suitable for matching together, such as complementary colors and adjacent colors.

For adjacent color matching, it looks comfortable and naturally there are colors that are not particularly suitable for matching together, such as multiple high saturation colors at the same time, colors that are not or rarely seen in nature, and the color itself is not compatible with the matching object (cool colors and food, etc.).

Multiple highly saturated color combinations, the picture appears unreal and green distortion, so we also need to choose colors when shooting, high saturation colors had better not be used at the same time, rare colors in nature should also be used cautiously, in addition, it is good to consider whether the attributes of the color itself are consistent with the theme expressed.
