Background is one of important factors in an image and choosing suitable background is a deciding element to make beautiful photos. The background is of fundamental importance in the composition of the image emphasizing the subject, improving the photography, or if not adequate, it may cause irreparable damage to the image, making it chaotic.
Most beginning photographers know to watch out for lamps or other objects seeming to grow out of people’s heads, but there is more to good captures than just avoiding the basic traps. Here are some ideas for interesting background ideas, help you make amazing photos.
Bokeh technique
Bokeh is a popular photography technique with photographer. It help you create an in-focus subject and a blurry background, and it is very easy to realize. It is used frequently for close-ups of flowers, or really anything small and detailed. You need many digital point and shoot cameras what have a Portrait setting. You will need to make sure there is space behind your subject and if the background is too close, it will still be in focus.
Acess to your subject, or you can also use the zoom button. Don’t forget to focus your subject, and that there isn’t anything else between you and the subject (grass, sticks, etc.). if you do not pay attention, your intended subject will become the background and get the bokeh. Then take the photo, and checks at different angles to be safe. It’s not hard, and you’ll get the hang of it if you practiced hard.
Colours
Eye – Catching colours is an effective way to help your product photograph become more perminant. You can impale the backdrop with natural materials or with some coloured netting, and thus are able to choose a colour to work well with the colours your subject. It is not too hard but it requires a lot of effort and especially those looking for a “studio” style wildlife photo, it can look very nice. Sometimes it occurs naturally, and you simply need to try and post yourself so that a natural patch of colour appears behind your subject. Such colours could be created by flowers, bushes or trees. Any large patch of colour that is very out of focus will merge into one nice blend of colour.
Sometimes you can get the same effect from an extreme close. Use the MF setting and turn off the flash. You will get as close as possible to your subject. The less flat your subject the better, so you can get some parts in focus, with others blurred. Using a flash too close will excess the subject, but if you have enough ambient light it will be more effect.
The most important thing is to always be looking for something different. Don’t be hesitant to try different angles or lighting to make perfect background for your photograph.
