The China Photographic News Agency, together with the Fujian Province Photographers Association and the Light Industry Group, jointly organized the "Entering the '3+2' of the Light Industry Group" photography event. The event was held in the Gulongjiang Cultural Park. Yang Qingwei, Secretary of the Party Committee and Chairman of the Light Industry Group, attended the event and delivered a speech. He hoped to show the development achievements of the Light Industry Group through photography and promote the spirit of the light industry people. The event attracted nearly 100 photography enthusiasts. They exchanged photography techniques and shared their experiences. They also listened to Professor Lin Lu's lecture on "photography--from salon aesthetics to contemporary presentation." After that, a panel of judges composed of Li Shixiong and others selected the works of "Walking into the Light Industry" shot by the film friends. The selected works were published in the China Photographic News. In addition, the excellent works of the "3+2" photography activity of the "Xiamen Light Industry Group" were exhibited in the "China Photographic News", which caused a lot of response in the national tourism photography industry. The 20 works stood out from more than 700 works submitted by more than 150 photography enthusiasts. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>

There were many ways and techniques to use light in commercial photography: 1. ** Different types of light and their characteristics ** - ** Straight Light **: The light shines on the person behind the photographer, and the color reproduction is higher than the side light. - ** Front light **: 45 degrees angle to the character, commonly used in shooting. - Side Light: With the photographer as the central axis, the angle between the light and the photographer is 90 degrees, on the pure side of the character. It was often used to portray characters with dual personalities, schizophrenia, or dramatic effects. It was also commonly used in portraits of boys. - ** Side Backlight **: Located 45 degrees behind the character, it can separate the character from the background, enhance the three-dimensional effect of the character, and make the picture more spatial. It is suitable for single-color or real-life shooting. - Backlight: The light that comes from the opposite direction of the camera. It is suitable for shooting women (not especially old). It can express the character's bright, lively, and atmosphere. If the character's hair color was golden, the edges of the hair would be even more beautiful under the light. When backlighting is used, there may be triangular rays (Rembrandt rays) in the dark areas of the character's eyes and cheeks. - [Ghost Light]: Light from the bottom up. Usually used to shoot bad guys or evil people in movies and TV dramas. It is not suitable for portrait photography. However, for customers with thin faces, small chins, and sunken cheeks, they could use a reflective board to fill in the light below to make the chin look full. 2. ** Light Depth-related ** - The depth of light is related to the shooting distance. The closer the lamp is to the subject, the shorter the depth of light, the faster the light transition, and the easier it is to become dark. The further the lamp is from the subject, the longer the depth of light, and the slower the light transition (decay). - The luminous depth can be defined as the range of light decay less than 0.3EV within a certain distance. It can be used in segments for direct light to obtain different lighting effects, such as obvious transition between light and dark, ideal or uniform effects. - When you need to shoot a transition effect, if the picture is very flat, you can move the light forward a little and reduce the power; if you want the brightness of the shooting area to be completely consistent, you can move the light far away and use a large light depth, but use a high-power lamp. After installing the honeycomb network, the light depth did not change, but the brightness decreased significantly. The soft light screen was close to the hard light cover, but the brightness became weaker. The soft light screen moved forward and the light depth became larger. - Being able to use multi-layer light depth and multi-layer light distribution theory to shoot was the advanced stage of commercial photography. One could first use a normal brightness base light, then add a short light depth to create a high light range. 3. ** Different masks and accessories ** - **55° portable standard reflective cover **: When different transition effects are required, the position and power of the lamp can be adjusted. If you want a strong transition between light and dark, you can move the lamp forward a little and reduce the power; if you want the brightness to be uniform, you can move the lamp far away. - **55° portable standard reflective cover + 10° honeycomb network **: Can be used to control the light and make the brightness of the shooting area uniform. - ** Regular Hard Mask **: The center point (hot spot/light center) is the brightest, and there is a reduction in brightness from the center to the edge. If you use the light in the middle of the hard mask, you will get a hard light. If you use the light from the edge of the hot spot to the edge of the hard mask, the light will be soft and uniform. If the light was moved back, the hot spot would weaken and the transition would be softer. - **70° light diffusing mask **: Zooming in, pulling out, or tilting will produce different light effects. The control of the hot spot could be achieved by moving the light back and forth, expanding the hot spot backward and shrinking the hot spot forward. Tilting the angle of the hard light cover and adding a visor to block the light center, directly using the edge light to shine, the light would be very soft. The soft light screen would also produce a corresponding light effect when it was close to the 70° light diffusing cover. A large hard light shield would cause the shadow to have multiple layers of shadows. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>

If the light is dim during photography, you can use the following methods: 1. ** camera settings adjustment ** - ** Increase the lens aperture **: Under the condition that the depth of field is not obviously affected, the aperture setting can be enlarged appropriately to increase the amount of light entering, but it should be noted that a large aperture will reduce the depth of field. - ** Slow down the shooting speed **: If you hold the camera and the subject is not moving quickly, you can reduce the shooting speed near the safe speed. If conditions permit, use a tripod, tripod, and shutter release to stabilize the shooting, which can greatly reduce the shooting speed and reduce the reliance on large apertures. However, the maximum exposure time of a non-B-door camera is generally 30 seconds. - ** Increase sensitivity shooting **: Modern digital cameras have high sensitivity, but as the sensitivity increases, the image quality will decrease, so you have to find a balance point to avoid abusing high sensitivity. 2. ** camera mode operation **: switch the camera to manual mode or adjust the exposure compensation. 3. ** Using light and supplementary lighting measures ** - ** Use of outdoor light **: You can add a soft light screen and change the angle to choose a suitable background. You can adjust the angle between the character and the sunlight according to the desired effect, so that the sunlight can illuminate different areas of the face to highlight the three-dimensional sense of the facial features. When the light is completely backlit, you can use a reflective board to fill the light. When the sky is getting dark, you can use a light fill light (such as a stick lamp). You can use a stick lamp and a V-port battery to hit the reflective board to maximize the light. - ** Add external light source **: Light distribution, light distribution, and supplementary light like in a studio. 4. ** Special Shooting Technique **: When shooting with a mobile phone, you can step back a little and then use the third lens of the mobile phone and turn it to three times. It may make the photo brighter and have a skin-rubbing effect. 5. ** Post-processing **: If the photo is too dark, you can use post-processing software to adjust it. For example, in Snapseed, he could use the White Balance tool to adjust the color temperature and increase the warmth of the color tone, use the Outstanding Details tool to increase the structural value, use the Curved tool to increase the brightness, brighten the image, and make soft contrast, and use the Picture Adjusting tool to improve the color saturation and contrast. You can also use software such as Photoshop to perform the "Automatic Color" command, as well as the "Shadow/Highlight" command to adjust the dark and highlight values, increase the midtone, and increase the trimmed white percentage value to brighten the picture. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>

There were many ways to use light in baby photography: 1. ** Natural Light ** - [Soft Natural Light: An ideal choice.] For example, outdoors, the light was bright in the early morning and helped to create a beautiful image and a sense of vitality. It was also easier to control the light on the subject's face and reduce the problem of squinting. In the evening sunset (before sunset, sunset, and after sunset), the light changed from gold to orange and then to purple. The subject would not squint and could freely find the shooting position. However, pay attention to the child's biological clock. The child may be energetic in the morning but may not be suitable for all shooting scenes (such as beach shooting). - ** Side natural light **: For example, the front light (oblique light) at about 45 degrees is more common from 9:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m., which is in line with visual habits. It can make the boundary between light and dark of the subject more obvious and highlight the texture. The 45-degree side light can produce light and shadow arrangement, which makes the picture have depth, presents a three-dimensional effect, and truly shows the surface texture of the subject. 2. ** Artificial light ** - [Warm Light]: A movie light can be placed at the side to create a warm light to create a photo of the baby on film. - ** Lighting in the room **: - Rembrandt lighting: Illuminate three-quarters of the face, and the remaining one-quarter of the shadow is facing the camera. Use side light or side backlight as the main light, and use front light or flat light to assist in lighting. - ** Side Light **: The light from the left and right sides of the subject can produce a clear and strong contrast. - ** Plain Light **: The light source and the camera lens are basically at the same level and in the same direction as the camera's optical axis. Its characteristics were that all parts of the subject were evenly displayed, lacked three-dimensional sense, could only see the light receiving surface of the subject, could hide the defects of the subject, could not change the color tone and shadow tone of the picture, the picture level was flat, and the light and shadow changes were not obvious. However, it was suitable for shooting bright subjects to show dark outlines, and could also make the subject colorful. - ** Top Light **: The light is shot directly above the subject, which is equivalent to a 90-degree angle between the light, the scene, and the lens. When taking pictures indoors, using studio lighting may cause irritation to the baby's eyes and make the baby feel unsafe, but if natural light is used, the baby's skin color will appear natural. However, when there was insufficient natural light in the room, artificial light was also needed. The main purpose of lighting was to illuminate the main body and make the picture more layered and artistic. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>

Here are some key points about live and artificial light photography: ##1. Artificial Light photography 1. ** Light source selection and characteristics ** - Flash was a commonly used portable artificial light source that could provide strong light in an instant. It was suitable for shooting in low-light environments or filling in shadows, but one had to pay attention to the direction and intensity of the light when using it. - The continuous light was also an artificial light source option. - Soft light boxes are often used to change the characteristics of artificial light. For example, using LED panels and soft light boxes can create softer shadows in still photography. 2. ** Artificial Light Usage Technique ** - Dimmer: When taking photos in a small space (such as a home studio), you can use a dimmer (self-made or buy a lamp with a built-in dimmer) to control the light to adjust the lighting to suit the scene you want to capture. - Observe the size of the light source: a larger light source casts a smaller, weaker shadow. Conversely, a smaller light source casts a clearer shadow. - The use of light regulator: Use light regulator made of white translucent material to adjust the artificial light source. It can make the light emitted by the flash pass through the material to form a new, larger light source, making the light effect more natural. - Consider the distance between the light and the object: the closer the light source is to the object, the brighter it is; the bigger the shadow, the darker it is; the farther away the shadow is, the brighter it is. If you want to take a magnificent photo, you can bring the light closer to the object; if you want a light and natural appearance, you can put the light further away. ##2. Live photography 1. ** Natural light related ** - ** Natural light type and application ** - Prime time (after sunrise and before sunset): The sun has a soft golden-yellow tone, and the light angle is low and soft. It is suitable for taking warm and dreamy photos. - Blue Time (before sunrise and after sunset): The light is cool blue, suitable for shooting quiet and cold scenes. - Noon light: Strong and direct, producing strong contrast and shadows. It is suitable for high-contrast photos, but you must pay attention to avoid overexposed and too hard shadows. - ** Natural Light Shooting Techniques ** - Faint Light: The light source comes from behind the photographer and shines directly on the subject, illuminating the subject evenly. It is suitable for taking photos with rich details (portraits or still life), but the picture may lack layering. - Side light: The light source shines on the main body from the side, creating a clear contrast between light and dark, enhancing the three-dimensional and layered feeling, suitable for expressing texture and contours. - Backlight: The light source comes from behind the subject. It can create a dreamy and translucent effect. You need to pay attention to controlling the exposure to avoid the subject being too dark or the background being too bright. - Bring a reflective board: When the sun is shining, if you take a photo, you can use a clip to fix the reflective board to a tree or building (if there is no reflective board, you can use a white shirt or white cloth instead) to reflect the light to the object. - Make the model face the light: When shooting a portrait with natural light, making the model face the light can create a soft image. Backlighting or backlighting (when the light is strong) can also produce a similar effect. - Wearing a hood outside: It helps to block unwanted sunlight in the image and reduce lighting noise. - Shooting in RAW format: More customizations can be provided during post-shooting to avoid losing image information due to shadows or excessive light. 2. ** Mixed Light (Live light may include a mixture of natural light and artificial light in the existing environment) - Mixed light shooting was challenging, such as when bright sunlight shone through the window and artificial light was overhead. However, he could use some techniques to deal with it, but the reference materials did not mention these techniques in detail. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>

Light played a vital role in cell phone photography, which could be understood from the following aspects: ** 1. Type of Light ** 1. ** Soft Light ** - Soft light was commonly seen in cloudy days, dusk, or scattered light in the bedroom. It could also be artificially created by soft lights, soft boxes, and so on. Soft light was mostly scattered light, and the direction of the light was not strong. When shooting the subject, it generally did not produce shadows or only produced very shallow shadows. It could express the color, pattern, and other characteristics of the subject in a delicate and soft manner. For example, under the large softbox environment of a cloudy day, the edges and corners of the mountain rocks would not produce strong shadows. The black swan swimming in the lake was harmonious and calm under the gentle light and the calm lake surface. The feathers were rich in layers. 2. ** Hard Light ** - In contrast to soft light, hard light had a strong directional effect and could cause the image to have deeper shadows. The direct sunlight on a sunny day, the light from searchlights, and the spotlights in the studio were all considered hard light. Shooting in a hard light environment, the contrast between light and dark was strong, and the shape and outline of the subject were more prominent. However, when the light ratio is too high, the bright or dark parts may lose their level, which can be improved by activating the HVR function of the phone (HVR is a technology that instantly completes three or more photos of underexposed, normal-exposed, and overexposed and automatically combines them into one photo. However, for some images that need to emphasize light and shadow effects, HVR will make the picture lack three-dimensional sense). For example, under strong sunlight, the stones on the riverbank would show obvious shadows, and the texture and layers of the objects would be more distinct. ** 2. Use of Light ** 1. ** Light position ** - ** Fusing light **: The direction of the light is the same as the direction of the phone. This light position can illuminate the side of the subject facing the lens, fully displaying the color, shape and other details of the subject's light surface. - In addition, there were different light positions such as side light, backlighting, side backlighting, and top light. Different light positions would produce different effects. 2. ** Shooting Techniques ** - [Understand Light]: You need to pay attention to the changes in light. For example, when you shoot the first light in the morning, you need to understand the characteristics of the light at different times of the sunrise. A few minutes before sunrise, the sky was bright but relatively cold; when it was about to rise, the color was strong, but it was necessary to prevent the picture from being over-exposed; the moment of rising, there might be a surprise effect, such as the light through the gaps in the roof and the pigeons flying by, combining movement and stillness. - ** Equal Light **: For example, when shooting a sunrise with the wooden fence in the park as the background, the sun had just risen and the background was too dark. As the sun rose, the light spread. When the light completely shone on the wall in the background, it would form a three-dimensional light and shadow through the fence. The effect of the picture would be better. - Find Light: Don't limit yourself to one camera position and angle when shooting. Find more. For example, when shooting sculptures in the square, choosing a low angle to shoot may lack bright spots. When the sun appeared through the clouds, adjust the shooting angle to let the sun pass through the dragon's mouth, and the picture would have a finishing touch. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>

The soft light box was a piece of photography equipment. It was an accessory to the studio light and could not be used alone. It was composed of reflective cloth, soft light cloth, steel wire frame, and bayonet. When installed on the studio lamp, the light emitted was softer and could eliminate the spots and shadows on the photo. In terms of structure, some of the softboxes were made of movie-grade oxford cross soft fabric on the outside, and there was a thick reflective coating on the inside. Some of the softboxes came with two pieces of soft cloth inside and outside, as well as a grill. The outer layer of the soft cloth of the softbox was designed with Velcro, which was easy to replace. The inner layer of the softbox was a layer of grid texture to enhance the soft effect of the light. Some softboxes had a standard protective opening for better compatibility, and a plastic protective cover might be pre-installed at the factory. In terms of usage, the softbox had different uses in different types of photography: - ** Portrait photography **: You can use 2 - 3 softboxes. If you place one at the bottom, one at the top, and the other as the main light, you can take a portrait with uniform light with a gray-scale background. The background may be slightly darker depending on the shutter speed. - ** Item Shooting **: When using the studio for product photography, you can use the soft light box to illuminate the product and the background at the same time. It is better to use two soft light boxes. - ** Video Capture **: To ensure that the camera gets enough light to get a high-quality image, you can use several softboxes to cover the subject. For natural light effects, two softboxes can be placed on the side of the camera. If you use the camera's own light (such as a ring light), you can also take close-up shots with good lighting. - Beauty photography: Use two soft light boxes to illuminate the model and adjust its height. At the same time, place the ring lighting at a distance of about one to two meters. Pay attention to the correct position of the model's head when shooting. Find a suitable posture according to the shape of the face, avoid excessive rotation of the head, and try to shoot from the front. In terms of cost-performance ratio and convenience, for example, the Tarion Octagon Soft Box OC90F and the Quarter-Corner Soft Box SQ -6090F were relatively light and portable. They were not expensive and easy to use. They came with two soft cloths inside and outside, a grill, and a storage bag. The Quarter-Corner Soft Box SQ -6090F had a Velcro design on both sides to make the soft box body more secure. The Octagon Soft Box OC90F had a better performance in the storage state. These two softboxes were easy to open and store. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>

Here are some common permanent lights that can be used for pet photography: - Godox: This is a company specializing in the development, design, manufacture and sales of photographic equipment. Its products include LED photography lights, which can be used for lighting in pet photography in the studio. - Jinbei JINBEI: founded in 1995, focusing on the development, manufacturing and sales of electronic flashes and supporting photographic equipment. Its LED lights and other products can provide light for pet photography in the studio. - Yongnuo: A comprehensive enterprise integrating research and development, production, and sales. It mainly produces flash series, flash guide series, shutter release series, LED photography lights, etc. Its LED photography lights can be used for pet photography in the studio. When taking photos of pets, the use of the permanent light in the studio needed to consider the characteristics of the pet, such as: - Pets were very active, so they needed enough light intensity and the right angle to capture a clear picture quickly. - Pet supplies made of different materials (such as pet clothes, toys, etc.) reflected and absorbed light differently. The arrangement of the lights needed to be adjusted according to these characteristics. For example, the use of soft light boxes and other accessories to soften the light to avoid excessive reflection and affect the shooting effect. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
