Linzhi peach blossom photography tips
Carrying equipment:
Linzhi peach blossoms are majestic, grand and beautiful. It is recommended to bring all lenses, including wide-angle, medium focus, macro, and telephoto. The specific use depends on the creative requirements. Landscape filters are indispensable, such as polarizing filter, light reduction filter, and neutral gray gradient filter. It is recommended to bring two cameras, more than 2 batteries, a tripod, a shutter release cable, and a flash.
Shooting skills:
. Like to shoot big scenes: you can choose wide angle or ultra wide angle to express the atmosphere and majesty of the peach blossom forest. It is best to shoot in the morning or evening when the light quality is soft. If possible, you can also use a sunset mirror to shoot the sunset on Namjagbarwa Peak, which can make the picture more saturated.
. If you like to take macro shots: you can choose one or several branches, one or several flowers for close-up. Under backlight conditions, the veins of the flowers are clearer, the shapes are delicate, and the flowers are exquisite and translucent. Under side light conditions, it is easier to express the texture and three-dimensionality of flowers.
. Like to take pictures of people: you can focus your lens on the opening ceremony of the Peach Blossom Festival in March and local folk customs. You can use peach blossoms as the background to shoot the working life of local people, or you can integrate local people into large-scale scenery films to inject the flavor of life into the scenery films and play a finishing touch.
