Taking a walk in the forest is all about relaxation and nature!

I've taken so many outdoor photos this year, and I really love wandering through the forest. With spring not yet over, everyone should hurry and catch the tail end of spring to breathe some fresh air in the forest. While organizing the outdoor photos, I've summarized how to find beautiful scenes, which poses are suitable for outdoor photography, and how to do these poses to look relaxed. I hope it can be useful to everyone~ - Photo Tips: 1️⃣ Find a beautiful tree, the trunk of an older tree looks better in photos. ✔️ Lean against the trunk, bend one leg and rest it on the tree, put your weight on the leg that's on the ground, lean your upper back against the trunk, and look up at the sky so your face catches the light. One hand can be in your pocket or pulling on the strap of a bag. 🔺 Choose a sloped area, taking photos from a low angle can make you look taller. ✔️ Bend over to adjust your shoes. 🔺 Not looking at the camera can make you appear more relaxed. 2️⃣ Go deep into the forest to shoot, look for woods with straight trunks, as it makes the picture cleaner. 🔺 The woods I found have this structure, where the ground is flat and the trees are straight. Beyond that is a hillside, and the background will show the treetops of trees growing on the slope, adding green leaves to the picture. Such woods photographed with a large aperture make the subject stand out more. ✔️ I found a pine cone, and I sat on a tree stump. If the light is still strong, sit with your back to the sun and throw the pine cone towards the sky. The sunlight will hit the pine cone, and the face won't be overexposed. ✔️ Walk back and forth between the trees. 🔺 To capture a relaxed pose, the key is to take lots of photos. It's normal to feel unnatural in front of the camera at first, moving around helps you get used to it. ✔️ Spin around on the spot, open your arms and swing your clothes to simulate the feeling of wind. 🔺 When spinning, rotate on one foot, a bit like the spinning in ballet, but your hands can move freely. Spread your arms and run towards the camera, 3️⃣ On sunny days, be sure to shoot against the light, and look for a background with lots of leaves for a translucent green. 🔺 My backlit photos were taken from a lower position, so the background shows the leaves. 4️⃣ This time I also took photos by the lake. I've been to Dai Lake several times, and this time I found out how to get photos with the lake appearing green. ✔️ The sunlight was shining on the trees on the opposite shore where I was standing, making the green of the trees very bright and reflected more vividly on the water surface. ✔️ The photographer needs to stand on a higher slope and squat down to make the camera level with my head, so more reflections can be captured. Having branches overhead can add a bit to the photo, along with some foreground grass.
