One of their strong abilities is discovering novel foregrounds, making the perspective of the whole photo distinctive."},{"t":"p","x":"这块礁石的一般视角，就是这样的普通海滩场景。","b":false,"xe":"The ordinary view of this rock is just such a typical beach scene."},{"t":"img","f":"img-03","w":1000,"h":668},{"t":"p","x":"不过我花了半天时间，仔细的在海滩周边搜索，希望能发现一些新奇的构图。我首先发现了一些灌木。","b":false,"xe":"However, I spent half a day carefully searching around the beach, hoping to discover some novel compositions. I first found some shrubs."},{"t":"img","f":"img-04","w":534,"h":800},{"t":"p","x":"还有奇形怪状的树木。","b":false,"xe":"And some oddly shaped trees."},{"t":"img","f":"img-05","w":1000,"h":668},{"t":"p","x":"后来我还在海边看到了一块倾斜的石头，海浪时不时冲上石块，形成瀑布般的效果。","b":false,"xe":"Later, I also spotted a tilted rock by the sea, where waves occasionally rushed over the stone, creating a waterfall-like effect."},{"t":"img","f":"img-06","w":1000,"h":667},{"t":"p","x":"如果抵近石头倾斜的一面拍摄的话，可能会产生一些非常戏剧性的效果。整个石头的斜面只有一米多高，我只能把我的脚架塞到里面，用d750的翻转屏进行对焦和操作。","b":false,"xe":"If I shot close to the tilted face of the rock, it might produce some very dramatic effects. The rock's slope was only about one meter tall, so I had to stuff my tripod inside and use the D750's tilting screen to focus and operate."},{"t":"p","x":"这个地方的前景最近只有0.2米，如果对远处的礁石对焦，前景就会虚化掉。如果我们对前景对焦，背景又会模糊。","b":false,"xe":"The nearest foreground here was only 0.2 meters away. If I focused on the distant rocks, the foreground would blur; if I focused on the foreground, the background would blur."},{"t":"img","f":"img-07","w":910,"h":800},{"t":"p","x":"因此只能手动调整焦距，从0.2米，0.5米到无穷远连续拍摄3张，后期再进行自动景深合成。3张照片景深合成时各自取到的区域。","b":false,"xe":"So I had to adjust focus manually, shooting 3 consecutive frames from 0.2m, 0.5m to infinity, then doing automatic focus stacking in post. The regions each of the 3 photos contributed during focus stacking."},{"t":"img","f":"img-08","w":1000,"h":673},{"t":"p","x":"景深合成后，清晰可见的水花泡沫并不好看，因此我在镜头前面套上了nd1000减光镜，拍摄慢门海浪。","b":false,"xe":"After focus stacking, the clearly visible spray and foam didn't look good, so I put an ND1000 neutral density filter in front of the lens and shot slow-shutter waves."},{"t":"img","f":"img-09","w":534,"h":800},{"t":"p","x":"最后用蒙版融合到一起，调色完成后的效果。","b":false,"xe":"Finally, I blended them together with masks — the result after color grading."},{"t":"h","x":"《重返侏罗纪》","xe":"\"Return to the Jurassic\" (《重返侏罗纪》)"},{"t":"img","f":"img-10","w":1000,"h":668},{"t":"p","x":"Bromo火山我2013年就来过，当时也是在观景台上，拍了一张经典的Bromo火山日出照片。但在这人满为患的观景台，每天都有成千上万的同一构图照片产生，并无多少新意。","b":false,"xe":"I'd visited Mount Bromo in 2013, and also shot a classic Bromo sunrise from the viewing platform back then. But on this overcrowded platform, thousands of photos with the same composition are produced every day — not much novelty."},{"t":"img","f":"img-11","w":1000,"h":664},{"t":"p","x":"因此这次旅行，我也是在Bromo火山住了5天，仔细搜寻前山，找到了许多可以作为前景的树木和花草。","b":false,"xe":"So on this trip, I stayed 5 days at Mount Bromo, carefully scouting the mountain's front slopes and finding many trees, flowers, and plants that could serve as foregrounds."},{"t":"img","f":"img-12","w":582,"h":800},{"t":"p","x":"而这张照片里的树木，无疑是形态最为奇特的，配合远处Bromo火山以及Semru火山的火山沙地地貌，反复让人回到了上古时代，或者穿越来到了月球。","b":false,"xe":"The tree in this photo is undoubtedly the most uniquely shaped. Combined with the volcanic sand terrain of the distant Mount Bromo and Mount Semeru, it repeatedly makes one feel transported back to a primordial era, or teleported to the moon."},{"t":"p","x":"后来和极影团队其他摄影师交流意见时，游神指出横构图虽然树木形态奇特，但是也引入了多余的灌木丛和天空，而且火山占比过小，因此提出了一个竖构图的裁图。我也觉得这个构图更能突出远处火山的雄伟。","b":false,"xe":"Later, when exchanging opinions with other AdventureX team photographers, You Shen pointed out that although the horizontal composition featured a uniquely shaped tree, it also brought in unnecessary shrubs and sky, and the volcano occupied too little of the frame. He proposed a vertical crop.

The warm colors of the distant rocks at sunrise also contrast nicely with the cool-toned sea in shadow."},{"t":"h","x":"《海瀑湾》","xe":"\"Sea Waterfall Bay\" (《海瀑湾》)"},{"t":"img","f":"img-17","w":1000,"h":711},{"t":"p","x":"海水除了超长曝光雾化之外，也可以用1/3-1秒的快门速度拉丝。长曝光雾化，其实是一个让照片显得更加安静的效果。而海水拉丝，则更加适合表现出动感的场景。","b":false,"xe":"Besides fogging the sea with ultra-long exposure, you can also create silky streaks with shutter speeds of 1/3-1 second. Long-exposure fogging is actually an effect that makes the photo calmer, while sea streaking is better suited to conveying dynamic scenes."},{"t":"h","x":"《星月争辉》","xe":"\"The Moon and Stars Competing in Brilliance\" (《星月争辉》)"},{"t":"img","f":"img-18","w":1000,"h":482},{"t":"p","x":"14mm焦距2排横向接片，同时记录下了月亮和南半球银河拱桥。星空月亮同时用相同曝光参数拍摄，iso 3200，30s，f2.8。","b":false,"xe":"A 2-row horizontal stitch at 14mm focal length, capturing both the moon and the Southern Hemisphere's Milky Way arch. The stars and moon were shot with the same exposure settings: ISO 3200, 30s, f/2.8."},{"t":"p","x":"现场的银河尾部其实是在礁石正上方。但为了最后的构图不取到左边非常多的杂草，同时平衡画面，因此银河部分后期选出来，单独右移了一些。","b":false,"xe":"In reality, the tail of the Milky Way was directly above the rocks at the scene. But to keep the final composition from including the many weeds on the left, and to balance the frame, I selected the Milky Way in post and shifted it slightly to the right on its own."},{"t":"p","x":"因为是新月前后几天，月亮其实只有一条小缝，严重过曝才变成了圆形。天上的月光比较暗淡，也给同时记录下星空提供了可能。而降噪用的nik dfine 2的自动降噪（《比PS更好用的降噪神器 - Nik Dfine 插件》）。","b":false,"xe":"Since it was a few days around the new moon, the moon was actually only a thin sliver; it only became a circle through severe overexposure. The dim moonlight also made it possible to record the starry sky simultaneously.

When waves crash against rocks and flow back down, they look like waterfalls under long exposure — a very peculiar scene. Since the dynamic range was very large, this one also required separate exposures for the sky and the waves, then compositing in post."},{"t":"p","x":"以上就是托马斯今天的一些分享和思考，一会儿又要进山拍摄了，更多本次印尼旅行的照片，欢迎大家关注我的图虫：https://thomaskksj.tuchong.com","b":false,"xe":"Those are some of Thomas's shares and thoughts today.
