Senior photographer teaches you 10 strokes to shoot a cat

1/Find the ideal location

The photographer said he had filmed a lot of cats and felt very strongly about cats, and he found that stray cats are different in their faces. Stray cats do not have many human interruptions on the roads or heights of people (such as fences), so the cat's expression in these places will be peaceful and slow. So you need to look for a place where you can relax your cat. Pry the shrimp 谩 Ridge?/p>

　　

2/Equipment attention

The mobile phone's shooting function is already very sufficient, but the shooting street cat needs to be equipped with telephoto equipment, so it is more ideal to use a single mirror reflective camera. Too big a camera, the cat will feel very scary, so try to use a lightweight SLR (but of course, with the photographer's proficiency, the large equipment is completely no problem), but also from the beginning of the hands, such as cat habits. Do not use flash, tripod is not recommended. The photographer says he likes to be on the same level as the cat (laughs)

　　

3/Ideal time to shoot

From April to May this time, shooting from 5 o'clock in the morning is ideal. Cats are considered nocturnal creatures, but cats are sensitive to moving objects at night, as long as people move. Support 砩 Grandmother Dian?/p>

10/humans are the cat's breeding side (?)

The photographer finally said, with the cat for such a long time, think "cat" this thing and the dog is completely different, dog words and humans have the relationship between owners and pets, but the cat is the opposite, more like human beings in the sense of the cat, so the idea of what to keep the cat will not appear (laugh)
