Tomorrow is 2023.

reviews 2022, which is not too bad.

But overall, it's not very good.

If I wanted to say goodbye to 2022, it should be: I won’t say goodbye until I leave.

If you make a wish for 2023, it should be: don’t be worse than 2022, and be satisfied.

The goal of life is always full and ideal.

But reality is often difficult and full of surprises.

is like this photo:

I passed a road intersection that day.

saw a worker on the construction site in the distance standing on the scaffolding and working.

Take advantage of 5x telephoto. Take a photo of it and the building in the distance and compress it together.

The picture looks a bit messy.

But after combing through the photos, you can find that there is actually a common coincidence between the buildings, bridges and people inside: gold.

"The golden building, the gold on the guardrails of the bridge, and the gold on the workers' safety helmets."

So, I did some post-processing and used HSL to process the color, leaving only the yellow in the picture.

Then, I used retouch to pull out the wires in the sky and got the final desired result.

The modified photo was named "Golden".

The golden color of the building is luxurious. What I think of is wealth full of temptations, but it is always visible but not tangible.

The golden color on the bridge is natural. What I think of is simple and easily accessible warmth, but it is always ignored by many people.

The gold on the worker's safety helmet is humble. What I think of is real life. It seems inconspicuous, but it protects you from wind and rain and gives you a down-to-earth sense of security.

A golden color, placed in different places, shows different meanings.

Putting them in the same frame creates a sense of contrast, narrative, and storytelling.

Of course, regardless of the meaning, the shooting technique used in the photo is telephoto compression.

uses the sense of compression to shoot the buildings tall and dense, thereby forming a contrast with the people below,

and this disparity between visual volumes will further amplify the "narrative" I just mentioned. The sense of luxury and wealth in the

building forms an ironic contrast with the reality of the workers trapped in life.

Going deeper, in fact, this shooting technique is a "quick way" to take good photos quickly.

Because we are surrounded by such scenes.

Buildings, mountains, grasslands, lakes...

Their common characteristics are "high", "big" and "dense".

Then, when shooting, if you find "short", "small" and "sparse" elements,

the photos will be very different.

Of course, you may simply think that to take such photos, you must use telephoto.

However, if you look at these two photos, they also capture the contrast between the environment and the subject:

But they did not use telephoto. Why is

like this?

can actually share a simple idea to explain this problem.

The first type

is the subject, which is far away from you, and there is no specific reference object in front of it to form a pair.

At this time, it is recommended to use telephoto to compress the picture.

telephoto can cut out specific parts from scattered scenes to form a size contrast with the subject.

At this time, the subject is the focus of the picture, and the cut-out environment is the contrasting object and a secondary element of the photo.

The second type

is the subject, which is closer to you, but in the distance, there is a specific reference object to contrast with it.

At this time, it is recommended to shoot with a normal focal length.

Compared with telephoto, normal focal length will not destroy the integrity of the reference object.

At this time, the reference object is the focus of the photo, and the subject is the embellishment of the environment and the secondary element of the photo.

The third type

When the subject is in the distance and between him and your lens, the environment is neater and has a sense of lines.

At this time, it is recommended to use ultra-wide to reversely compress the image.

ultra-wide can make the lines between the subject and the lens more divergent.

At this time, lines and characters are the focus of the photo, and they embellish and complement each other.

and above, just use the last shot of 2022,

to share the last article of 2022,

see you next year.
