The top ten photography works in the world are: Rhine No.2, Untitled #96, Collage Photo of Her Majesty, Untitled #153, Dialogue on the Road to Death, Untitled, 99 Cent II, Los Angeles, Moonlight on the Pond.
Rhine No.2 is gorski's work in 1999, which depicts a path, grass, river and gray sky with no outline at all, and they form an almost perfect horizontal structure.
The original factory on the other side of the river, as well as dog walkers and cyclists along the river, have also been carefully disposed of by gorski, until the picture "has a sufficient sense of depression" and finally becomes a simple color block like an abstract work. This quiet picture consists of several different parts of the river, and the photo is both convincing and false.
The whole collection includes six paintings depicting the beautiful scenery of the Rhine. This work is the second and largest one among them. The grassland, river and gray sky in the picture almost form a perfect horizontal structure. The author removes irrelevant elements such as factories and pedestrians from the picture through technical means. This photo was once the most expensive auction price in the world. In 211, it was sold at Christie's auction house for $4.33 million.

// Preparation?
Check the weather
The light pollution in the city has a great influence on starry sky photography, so don't fantasize about taking pictures of sky full of stars in the city.
as early as the end of the eastern Han dynasty, Cao Cao told us a truth in his "short songs": there are few stars in the moon. Like light pollution, for the starry sky, the bright moonlight is also a strong light, and when there is a big moon hanging high in the sky, the starry sky will also dim.
The best shooting time is generally between 26th lunar month and 3rd lunar month, which is the darkest time of moonlight.
Summer and autumn are the best seasons to shoot the starry sky, and the shooting time is best from 9: p.m. to 3: a.m.
We can basically give up shooting in rainy, cloudy or foggy weather
Finally, we should find a place without light pollution and choose a sunny day.
Pay attention to safety when shooting in the field
Check the star map
See the time when the moon rises and sets, identify the constellations, etc.
IOS? StarWalk2? 18.
Its free version has a very comprehensive function, and the layout of the star map is super exquisite, with a high-tech feeling, and everything is clear _ easy to understand. I think its exquisiteness is the top among Yunyun mobile apps. Built-in automatic positioning mode, real-time display of stars or galaxies near you. You can also check the time of sunrise and sunset every day on the APP.
Android? Free star map? /? GoogleSkyMaps free
computer? Stellarium is free of charge
food and warm clothes
People's body temperature will drop if they stay outdoors for a long time, so pay attention to keep warm and cold. As for how much and what to bring, it depends on whether you want to take photos or have a picnic.
Generally, the time of starry sky photography is much shorter than that of star-orbit photography, which often lasts for several hours.
besides, the camera may have to keep out the cold. If you shoot the starry sky in extremely cold areas, pay attention to prevent the lens from frosting and dewing.
A flashlight
A common flashlight can also be used.
Here, the red flashlight is briefly mentioned.
The human eye is not sensitive to red light. After seeing red light, the pupil will not become smaller obviously. It takes a while for the human eye to adapt to the dark environment. At this time, it is necessary to look for stars while watching the star map.
A declination instrument is not a necessity
The earth's rotation will cause slight movement, and the declination instrument can keep the relative position between the camera erected on it and the starry sky background unchanged through its own rotation, which is very helpful in shooting still starry sky pictures. However, it is not a necessity because it is inconvenient to carry and expensive. For photographers who shoot the starry sky professionally, the equatorial instrument can be purchased.
// choice of camera and lens?
camera
a camera with excellent high sensitivity is most suitable for starry sky photography, that is, the camera has excellent noise control ability at high sensitivity, and the noise generated by long-term exposure in the dark is within a controllable range, which will not affect the imaging quality of the work.
the lens
must first ensure a large aperture, preferably a wide-angle lens
The aperture is preferably above F4
A lens with a large aperture can increase the exposure of the picture at the same exposure time, and at the same time, a large aperture will make the stars in the picture appear larger.
Wide-angle lens ensures sufficient depth of field
Shooting the starry sky is mostly shooting the Milky Way, and the picture needs to have a visual shock effect, so a zoom lens with a wide-angle end is more suitable.
lens reference
full-frame cameras: 11-24mm, 12-24mm, 14-24mm, 16-35mm, etc. You can also choose auxiliary factory lenses such as 14mmF1.8 and 21mmF1.4 from Sima.
Half-frame camera: For example, Canon's APS-C camera is very good with EF-S1-18mm. Or set the camera lens, such as 18-55mm and 18-135mm, shooting with 18mm wide-angle end can also meet the shooting needs, but the shooting quality is not as good as that of Quan Huafu and high-end cameras.

Equipment you need to prepare
SLR camera+lens
Super wide-angle lens, wide-angle lens or fisheye lens are recommended, and the vision is more shocking. It is best to keep the aperture constant at or above F2.8, and according to the starry sky 5 rule, the wide-angle lens can use a longer exposure time.
5 rule? The longest shutter time =5/ equivalent focal length
For example, when shooting with a 24mm lens, the slowest shutter should be 5/24=2.8s, and when shooting with a 35mm lens, the slowest shutter should be 5/35 = 14.3s..
equivalent focal length conversion
Quan Huafu 1 times
Nikon, Sony APS-C 1.5 times
Canon APS-C 1.6 times
Olympus M4/32 times
Try to choose a stable tripod, because it is not shooting the star orbit, and there is no high requirement for tripod stability. Generally, a tripod is also acceptable.
cable release
It is easy to affect the picture clarity by manually pressing the shutter, so it is recommended to shoot in cable release, or set the camera to delay shooting for a few seconds.
the battery memory card
can be used only if it is enough
general starry photography method
pre-focusing
1. Use manual focusing mode, the aperture is enlarged, the shutter speed is slowed down, and the iso is raised.
2. Start real-time display shooting, and press the zoom-in button to zoom in on the stars or galaxy in the picture.
3. Adjust the focus ring manually until the stars and the Milky Way are clear
4. Don't touch the focus ring after focusing properly.
shutter, aperture, ISO, white balance and noise reduction
The shutter must meet the 5 rule, so that the stars will not be drawn, and it can be 15s or 2s.
After shooting, you can put it at the maximum to check whether the stars are drawn. If drawing is needed, you need to shorten the shutter time.
the larger the aperture, the better. F2.8 and F4 are all acceptable.
iso is the best between 16 and 64, and high ISO requires high sensitivity of the camera.
It is suggested that the white balance should be set automatically, and the shooting raw format is convenient for post-processing. If it must be set, it can be as cold as possible.
noise reduction settings, pay attention to turning off the functions such as high-sensitivity noise reduction and long-time exposure noise reduction. Noise reduction can be fine-tuned later, and the automatic noise reduction of the camera may make the photographer dissatisfied and is not recommended.
generally speaking, the operation of starry sky photography is relatively simple, and post-processing is also very important, followed by star-orbit photography
// Star-orbit photography?
The equipment you need to prepare
SLR camera+lens
is not much different from general starry sky photography, and you can also use a medium-focus tripod or a telephoto tripod
The tripod has high stability requirements, so choose a stable tripod as far as possible, and remember to turn off the camera lens for anti-shake
cable release
cable release can choose wireless cable release or wired, and it is necessary to have interval shooting function.
Some cameras have their own interval shooting function, or they can be reliable without using cable release
compass
Mobile phones have their own compass
There are two kinds of common star orbits
Oblique and concentric
Of course, spiral star orbits and explosive star orbits look higher
There are two ways to shoot star orbits, one is multi-Zhang Hecheng method. The other is B-door exposure method
Long exposure of B-door is not recommended to shoot starry sky
Long exposure will produce a lot of noise
It is easy to overexpose or underexpose
If the camera is turned off without power or the lens is illuminated by strong light, it will fall short
The foreground will be seriously overexposed
Method
Camera settings
It is recommended to shoot in RAW format. The color temperature can be adjusted later
It is suggested to shoot with low color temperature in places with serious light pollution
to turn off the noise reduction of long exposure, otherwise there will be a breakpoint in the star track
to focus
The focusing method is the same as that of general star photography
The lens direction
Concentric type
Shooting in the northern hemisphere is aimed at the north, and you can shoot a concentric star track with Polaris as the center. In the southern hemisphere, concentric orbits can be photographed by aiming at the south.
diagonal
aiming at other directions, we can photograph diagonal star orbits
spiral star orbits and exploding star orbits
The method of starstail plug-in is more complicated, and it is possible to update
shutter, aperture, ISO and cumulative exposure time parameters separately
shutter
The exposure time of a single photo is generally 25-3 seconds.
cumulative exposure time
theoretically, the stars will rotate 36 degrees only after 24 hours, and the entire star orbit can be closed. In reality, it is impossible for ordinary cameras to expose for 24 hours. The ideal star orbit map usually has an exposure time of more than 1 hour. The longer the exposure time, the better the orbit effect and the longer the orbit.
aperture
F4 or larger.
ISO
Do not exceed half the maximum sensitivity of the camera
For the star track, you can freely control the density of the star track. Usually, the higher the sensitivity or the larger the aperture, the denser the star orbit, and vice versa.
It is suggested to use low sensitivity and long exposure to shoot a foreground with less noise
Then you can set the shutter, aperture, sensitivity and cumulative exposure time, just press the shutter and wait
After the preliminary shooting is completed, you can use ps stack synthesis to take pictures of deep space objects

Popular science
The most eNASAily photographed deep-space objects are as follows:
Spring: Bode galaxy M81 and starburst galaxy M82
Summer: Lagoon nebula M8
Autumn: Andromeda galaxy M31
Winter: Orion nebula M42
needs equatorial instruments, which are expensive and heavy

The artistic realm of Portrait Photography
Whether it is business portraits, family photos, news portraits or even portraits involved in any photography field, whether it is the subject, photographer and viewer, as long as there is no special purpose, they all want to see pleasing portraits, and it is one of the most important goals of any art form to make the audience and audience happy physically and mentally.
pleasing to the eye has first become the common goal of commercial photographers and customers. However, the development of modern photography has technically solved many problems that are difficult or impossible to be solved by previous photographers, thus making it relatively easy to realize the realm of pleasing to the eye. For commercial photography. this
