Night portrait - where to do in Moscow and how

Night portrait of - a very interesting genre of photography. If you try, the night photos turn out very effectively. There are some common misconceptions about the night shooting people in general and women in particular,.

misconception first - take pictures of people at night you can just flash. Usually this statement is reinforced by arguments about, that no flash is necessary to lift up or increase the ISO speed and because of that picture is obtained or noisy or oiled. This is partly true. But, Modern cameras and editors allow you to reduce the noise and allows to obtain very good images at ISO settings from 500 to 2 000. Shutter speed - this is not the biggest problem, facing photographer by night. When we photograph a person at night, it might as well ask him to try to stand still for half a second. Or maybe, and need much less.

second misconception - the opposite of the first. We shoot at night without any problems - we expose cars and hit the trigger. On the screen of the camera everything is fine. well yes, well yes. On the screen that can be perfectly, but just increase the noise and just get out and blurred image. Although come and even photos will look quite decent for displaying images on instagram.

for night scenes Council - do not shoot in automatic mode. It is best to find out a little bit with the settings and shoot in manual mode at night, exposing parameters to. Machine often mistaken, and you may find a marriage only at home, looking at the pictures on your computer.

mislead third - portrait of night to do necessarily against the background of something meaningful. That's what you should avoid. Generally portrait - a portrait, and monuments - this is another topic. Well think, removing smacks, you concentrate just on the person - girl, man, woman, baby, and removing the Christ the Savior Cathedral, I want that Temple. Then there are the purely technical aspects. Rubs often we shoot with a wider aperture, blurring the background, that is fuzzy and blurred contours of all, that is the man. Then what is the point to try to remove the girl or the guy on the background of something at night, If this is the something is blurry? Although, blurred lights and contours sometimes give a very nice effect. But the same effect can be produced and night petrol station.

To list all the errors does not make sense, because they do not consider those, so go back to the night portrait. So - it is always a portrait of the night staged photography, and therefore to the need to prepare for a night photo shoot. select place, time, consider the style of clothing. Since I in the presence of only one model (my daughter), ready to hang with me on the night Moscow, the farther it will go on, how and where to make a photo of the girl at night in Moscow.

To shoot at this point, we have taken with a frying pan. Do not laugh - we just instructed her to throw out, but we thought it an excellent accessory for shooting. In this shooting was a nuance.
