Step 1: Put on layers
Put on several layers of warm clothing before heading out to photograph Old Man Winter. Make sure you have warm, waterproof boots, gloves, a hat, and a coat — you can’t take pictures with frostbite.
第一步:多穿些衣服
在出去拍冬景前腰多穿些暖和的衣服。确保你有暖和且防水的靴子,手套,帽子和大衣——如果挨冻,你是拍不出好照片的。
Tip:Wear thick mittens over thin gloves, so when you’re ready to shoot your pictures, you can pull the mittens off to get a better hold on the camera.
小贴士:在手套外面戴厚的连指手套,这样当你准备拍摄时,你可以摘下连指手套来握紧相机。
Step 2: Get equipment
Use a camera that can withstand cold temperatures. Keep your camera in a camera bag until you’re ready to shoot and carry extra batteries in the camera bag.
第二步:准备好拍摄设备
找一个能经受低温的相机。要将相机一直放在相机包中,直到你准备好拍摄,将备用电池放到相机包中时再取出相机。
Step 3: Use the magic hour
Use the time just before sunrise and just after sunset, also known as the “magic hour,” to your advantage. These beautifully lit times of day are longer in the winter, giving you more time to capture winter’s beauty.
第三步:利用好的时间
利用日出前或刚刚日落的时间,也被称作“神奇的时刻”,要利用好这段时间。冬季白天美丽的时间较长,你有充分的时间来捕捉冬季的美丽。
Step 4: Find color
Find splashes of color in the often gray winter landscape. This will help brighten your photos and draw the viewer’s eye to them.
第四步:找到合适的色彩
在总是灰色的冬季景色中要寻找飞溅的色彩。这会令照片增彩,吸引观者的眼球。
Step 5: Adjust exposure
Adjust your camera’s exposure to help it capture the bright whiteness of the snow. If you are using a standard digital camera, look for a sand and snow setting.
第五步:调整曝光
调整相机的曝光来捕捉雪的亮白。如果你用标准的数码相机,使用“沙地和雪地”设置。
Step 6: Find winter scenes
Find interesting subjects, like people engaging in winter activities, ice, and surviving plant life to make your photos the most wintry, wonderful frozen moments.
第六步:寻找冬景
寻找有趣的景物,比如人们进行冬季活动。拍摄时,冰和存活下来的植物能记载冬天最漂亮的冰冻时刻。
