The horizon line is the line that appears as the boundary between heaven and earth when we are going to take pictures, this horizon line will be obvious when we take pictures on the beach or sea.
Horizon line also divides the composition of the photographs we portrayed in two, namely the sky and the land / ocean. We can choose which ones are prioritized in our photos, whether it is the sky that is given a large portion in the photo, or the land / sea. All of course is up to the photographer.
One important thing that the photographer must pay attention to is to make sure the horizon line is still straight in the photo. Of course so that the picture does not look strange in the end.
Here are 4 easy steps you can try to keep the horizon shoot straight. Whether you portrait with a digital camera or just use a smartphone / mobile phone.
- Use the grid view (grid view)
- Use a Tripod equipped with buble level
- Adjust the bottom or top edge of the viewfinder
- Take the benchmark of the building line around where you are photographing
If all the steps while shooting above you have done, the next thing to ensure the horizon line on the photo straight is through the editing process.
There are some software that has the ability to horizontal correction automatically, one of which is Adobe Lightroom.
In LR this feature is called Lens Correction, in fact this feature is designed to overcome the lens weakness of some kind of distortion, but we can use it to correct the horizontal line that is not straight straight.
In addition you can also take advantage of the rotating feature in some other photo processing software, to correct and ensure the horizon line is shot shoot straight in your photo.
