A good-looking and good-looking photo requires not only substantial content, but also a little bit of detail.

Foil, background class and other elements, we can omit them properly, on the one hand, to avoid its hustle and bustle, on the other hand, we can leave imaginative space for the photo, giving people the feeling that they are not finished.

Today, I would like to introduce several "ellipsis" methods that are often used in photography:

1. Virtual is the blurred and scattered state of the scene outside the focus, it will give people a hazy, dreamy feeling, at the same time, it is also a very practical ellipsis technique.

For the messy elements that have nothing to do with the theme, if we cannot avoid them by adjusting the angle, we can use a large aperture to make the irrelevant elements virtual, which can not only highlight the main body, but also form a virtual-real contrast, making the photos look more layered.

two。 The negative space is the blank space of the photo, which is the blank part of the photo with a large area of solid color and no actual content.

Although negative space has no actual content, it has its practical significance and can play a good omitting effect.

First of all, for some specific themes, negative space can highlight the characteristics of the scene and show its own characteristics, such as snow, fog and so on.

In addition, the negative space itself can be used to express simplicity and artistic conception, and a large area of omission has the feeling of "stuffy and silent at this time but more moving than sound", giving people a strong imagination space.

3. Composition composition can also be used to show ellipsis. In a photo, different positions have different visual attractiveness. For example, the central position of the picture is relatively important, while the edges and corners are less eye-catching.

Arrange the characters in the corner to weaken the sense of existence, so as to enhance the feeling of emptiness in the picture.

At the same time, the size ratio of the elements in the screen also has a different effect, a smaller proportion will be relatively less eye-catching, which is also a kind of "omission".

4. When exposed to a photo, the brighter elements tend to attract more attention, while the darker elements act as "foil" and are easy to be ignored, so they can be omitted by reasonably controlling the exposure.

Similar to virtual, for less important elements, if we do not want them to be too conspicuous and affect the performance of the subject, then we can omit them by suppressing the exposure.

5. Elements with high saturation are more likely to be noticed, while elements with low saturation usually act as a "foil", which can be omitted through reasonable adjustment of color saturation.

Like the later "black gold style", the light is adjusted to golden yellow, while the dark and irrelevant elements are all adjusted to black with low saturation, thus forming a contrast, which is a kind of ellipsis to adjust saturation.

6. In addition to the above ellipsis techniques, it is also a practical way to start with the integrity of the object itself. for the incomplete elements in the photo, we will naturally think that it is not the key point and will not pay too much attention to it.

Therefore, we can also reduce the expressive force of the elements that we want to omit by destroying the integrity, so as to better highlight the subject.
