Sunset is a scene that many photography enthusiasts like to shoot. At sunset, the light is soft, sometimes accompanied by sunset, which is especially suitable for recording.

However, it is precisely because this period of time is suitable for shooting, so we often see a lot of stereotyped sunset photos, and we want our own sunset photos to be more novel. We can learn from these techniques:

1. Finding a good time to shoot here is not to remind you of the time of sunset every day, but to remind you to pay attention to the changes of sunset on different days of the year.

The specific time of sunset varies slightly every day of the year, and we have to adjust it according to different days.

In addition, the orientation of sunset also changes with time. In the Spring Equinox and the Autumn Equinox, the direction of sunset is due west; between the Spring Equinox and the autumnal equinox, the direction of sunset is west by north, and at the same time, the sun is relatively closer to us; from the Autumn Equinox to the Spring Equinox the next year, the direction of sunset is west by south, and the sun is a little farther away from us.

Don't underestimate these subtle changes. Changes in the position of the sunset can provide different possibilities for our shooting, such as New York's famous sunset scene, the Manhattan suspense, where the sun is on the east-west street of Manhattan.

Each year only occurs in May and July (symmetrical with the summer solstice), so a small change in the sun's angle is likely to show a different scene.

two。 Using long exposure, if there are seas, rivers, etc., where the sunset is photographed, we can use long exposure to record the sunset and atomize the water flow at the same time, showing a magnificent scene of the same color as the sky.

Similarly, if there are clouds flowing in the sky, we can also use long exposure to record cloud changes, it is important to note that sunset is a continuous process, we do not need too long exposure, a few seconds.

3. Find a good horizontal line sunset is generally relative to a certain horizontal line, or the water surface, or the horizon, or a building, etc., this horizontal line can provide a reference for our composition.

On the one hand, remind us to maintain the stability of the picture, on the other hand, we can determine the position of the sunset in the picture according to the horizontal line, and make a reasonable composition.

If we use Trichotomy composition, we can also use horizontal lines to divide different scenery.

4. Photometry can be selected according to the theme we photographed. If we want to record the overall scene at sunset, we can use evaluation photometry, local photometry, and photometry to measure the highlights of the sky.

If you simply want to record the sunset or take a silhouette, you can measure the light of the sunset.

5. The ground scenery also plays a great role in shooting the sunset. after all, the sky and the sun are similar, but the scenery on the ground is different, which reminds us to match the reasonable scenery when shooting the sunset. mountains, currents, buildings, roads and so on are all good choices.

When shooting, we should pay attention to the relationship between different scenes and sunsets, and look for the ingenuity. For example, if there is a bridge in the distance, we can find a good shooting angle and record this picture when the sun is tangent to the bridge deck. or when the sunset interacts with an object or a plane, record it.
