Reflection

As I take portrait photography, I think taking portraits are difficult than taking still life portraits. One because people are moving especially when I want to take photos of some special point which is the real life of the people. Another reason is that when taking portraits I should focus not only on the position of the whole picture but also the position of the person who I take the photo to. Like what his or her action is fittable for the background I choose. However, it is so much fun to take portraits, cause taking portraits really need people to hold time. People are alive they have different looking with time change they all have a different emotion. Different emotions can lead to different movements. Therefore, when we look at the pedestrians on the road in every moment they have their own ideas and stories. In the shooting of the portrait, as long as the moment of catching the portrait is like capturing a person’s story. When we look at these photos, we can think of the story behind this picture. I think the story of taking pictures is very interesting. And when shooting portraits, I need higher skills to compose and adjust color, aperture and shutter speed.
