Hello Photography lover's,
Hope you're doing well,
Today I'll discuss about how to click perfect spider web images on your Poco device
So, without any further delay let's get started,
Spider webs make for fascinating subjects, but aren't always easy to photograph.
√ These tips will help you create some pin-sharp, beautiful shots ⤵️📸
1. When to Shoot
The best time to photograph spider webs is on a still day. Due to their lightness, spider webs can easily get blown around in the wind, leading to problems with focusing and blurry photos.
Early morning tends to be the best time of day to shoot because there generally isn't much wind. You also get the added bonus of morning dew adorning your spider web.
2. Dew on the Web
One of the classic photos of spider’s webs are those with dew or rain droplets on them. The great thing about moisture on a web is that it widens the web slightly and helps it to stand out more clearly. As already mentioned – the best time of day for dewy webs is mornings.
There are many macro lenses for mobile in the market. But according to me Skyvik signi and Apexel are the best for mobile. You can easily order these lenses online.
Now add macro lens to your mobile primary camera. And go near the object to click the photo. I'll suggest you, use pro mode and focus manually according to your subject distence.
The background of all shots are important as they either add to or distract from the shot. WIth spider’s webs it is particularly important to have a plain and preferably dark background. This will enable the web itself to stand out and be the feature of the shot.
5. Composition
Zom in - the most interesting part of a spider web is the centre, so get in close. Don't try to photograph the entire web because the threads will be too thin to see clearly.
Standing too far from the subject is one of the major mistakes of amateur photographers. Spider webs are generally more interesting the closer you are. Move close, and then move even closer, to fill the frame dramatically with the subject. Shoot with a macro lens or switch to macro mode, and you’ll be forced to be close to bring the web, spider, etc. into focus.
7. Post processing
All these images are edited, The web wasn’t really that colour, but I just loved the look. I also darkened off the shadow areas to make the background turn black, and enhanced the contrast to make the web and droplets stand out even more. Don’t be afraid to play – you can get some lovely images which can be far more dramatic than your initial photo.
P.S All shots are taken on my POCO X3 Device Using Skyvik Macro lens
Stay tuned for next post ♥️
