Why the same flower, some people shoot very well, but their shots but mediocre.
The truth is that photographing flowers also requires certain skills. Here are some photography tips for photographing flowers:
1. Layers
When shooting flowers on the ground, crouch down and put your camera on the ground.
Focus on the subject flower, and other flowers and plants in the foreground to block the lens, so that you can create a bokeh foreground so that the flower photos will have more layers.
2. Sense of space
The background is far away from the main flower so that when shooting, the background can be more bokeh.
Choose the part with slit light as the background, so that the bokeh at the same time, shoots the light spot. This way the photo has a sense of space.
3. Choose the right time
You can shoot within 30 minutes before and after sunrise or sunset, during this period, the light is softer, and the color is more beautiful.
4. Find a good angle
Even the same flower, using different angles to take pictures will be different.
When shooting, use the angle of elevation, you can make your photos look more different.
5. Learn to highlight the subject.

6. Color

7. Light
Outside light conditions may be unpredictable, you may need reflectors or diffusers. They can provide natural diffused light in the shadow areas of flowers.
You can capture the beauty of flowers by backlighting. Standing directly in front of the sun and allowing the light to illuminate the flowers from the back can produce stunning visual effects.
8. Know your lens
Please familiarize yourself with and understand the functions of your lens. Each lens has a minimum focus distance, which determines how close you get to the flower.
To show the beauty of various flowers, you need to use different lenses for your shots.
The best solution is a macro lens. To photograph small flowers from a distance, it is best to use a lens with a focal length of 50-200mm.
9. Using water droplets
Almost everyone has seen wonderful photos of flowers with water droplets, which will add a touch of beauty to floral photos.
The easiest way to do this is to shoot after rain or at dawn when there will be raindrops or dew. However, it is not difficult to create the water droplet effect yourself, using a spray bottle is sufficient.
