Tips And Tricks For Summer Photography
April 2023
|Asian Photography
Summer is a great season for taking pictures. There are many opportunities to take beautiful pictures that truly capture the beauty of the season thanks to the longer days and more intense sunlight.
Yet it may also be a difficult period for photographers, especially if you're not used to taking pictures in such harsh weather. This post will provide you with some advice and suggestions for summer photography so you can make the most of this magnificent time of year.
1. Shoot during the golden hour
The golden hour, or the hour shortly after dawn or just before sunset, is one of the best periods to take pictures in the summer. The light is gentle and warm at this hour, illuminating everything it touches with a lovely golden glow. It’s the ideal moment to take pictures of landscapes, people, and even street life.

2. Use a polarising filter
The bright sunshine in the summer can make it difficult for photographers to capture their subjects. Using a polarising filter is one strategy for overcoming this. Your images will appear considerably brighter and sharp thanks to this filter’s ability to eliminate glare and reflections. When photographing landscapes, lakes, and other reflecting surfaces, it is especially helpful.
3. Experiment with different angles
The summer is a terrific time to experiment with various viewpoints and angles. To get interesting shots, try photographing from above, below, or at odd angles. You can experiment with various lenses, such fisheye lenses, to give your pictures a fun distorted look.

4. Focus on details
