Some photos are taken well, but they will give people a very "flat" visually, which simply means there is no sense of layering. This is because the photo is essentially a two-dimensional display, which needs to present the three-dimensional sense of the three-dimensional world.
If you want to get rid of the feeling of flatness of the picture, pay attention to these points and you can easily solve this problem.

▌ Start with composition
Before we talked about several commonly used composition methods, among which these composition methods can make the picture look more three-dimensional during the early shooting.
Foreground composition method
combined with certain blurring effect is better.

▌ Work hard on light and shadow
Photography is the art of using light, and light can affect the shape, color, and space of the photographing subject. Just like wearing makeup, highlights and shadows will make the face more three-dimensional. Many photographers are keen on playing with light and shadow.


Even if you take a close-up shot, you can get rid of dullness.




▌ Make good use of color relationships
good color matching, so that the picture can produce light and dark contrast, and it is more impactful.



The way to make the photos more layered is not only one introduced above, but requires a combination of multiple methods to complete. Hope it can bring some inspiration to everyone.
