3 gold elements allow you to take more beautiful photos

Many beginners will ask us, is there any way can get better photos in a short period of time? In photography, you need to learn a lot of things, not only you should be familiar with your camera operation, also need to learn exposure, composition and narrative, but to let beginner to shoot better photo immediately, we will remind beginner refer to the "gold" three elements: protagonist, the foreground and background!

For beginners who just begin to shoot a picture, a lot of the time also will pay attention to one thing only: leading role (or body), trying to shoot a good body, and put all the focus on the main body, in fact, as long as the attention should be paid to two more things, your photos will immediately become rich rise, but also on the composition and narrative can add more change! Let's take a look at the other two elements in addition to the leading role:

(1) Background

The same subject, you can also use a lot of different Angle to shoot, the choice of background is very important, a good background, you can mainly pay attention to the following conditions:

Whether background is simple: beginner had better be able to choose a simple background, only in this way can highlight the leading role in the photos, a picture of a white wall, the green grass, or take advantage of the blue sky in the background is also a good choice;

Whether background color will "fusion" to the subject: choosing background also had better pay attention to the color of the background, although there is no absolute, but if the color of the background and main body is very close, so have the opportunity to make main body "convergence" in the background, the reader cannot easily focus on the subject, make pictures big discounts!

The use of shallow depth. The choice of background, and sometimes we won't be able to rule out all the clutter background, for example in the crowded streets, to wait no passers-by background is not very practical, so we can choose to use a shallow depth of field to fuzzy background, in addition to the body of the focus in this photo, other things will become blurred, which makes the body more outstanding, but when using a shallow depth of field to pay more attention to the range of depth of field, a shallow depth of field will makes the main body part is not clear, you be careful!

(2) Foreground

"Foreground" is one of the most prospects which is easy to ignore, even many novice never heard the word! But actually "foreground" has important influence on photos, foreground can foil the main body, also can make the whole picture of the story and balance increases greatly, if you are a novice to take pictures, be sure to look for a suitable foreground!

(3) Protagonist

Discuss the background and foreground, it is time to talk about the protagonist! For portrait, pet photography, etc., " protagonist" is very easy, it is the target person or pet, so long as make good focus, zoom in or using the composition skills to make the protagonist in the right place, at this moment is relatively simple, but if you are in a landscape photos, "protagonist" sometimes turn to be blurred, shot the sunset, the protagonist is of course the sun, but what about filming hills, sky? Then we can find an "interesting point" to shoot, the "interesting point" may be bound between protagonist and foreground, but its purpose is to let the reader's eye has a "landing point", make the photo more depth.

Novices who want to seriously learn photography, everybody must give patience, slowly from basic knowledge, learn from the process of "basic camera knowledge, exposure, composition, story, theme photography". Although it seems complicated, if you make the effort, you can shoot the degree of professional photos.
