From dressing up as your favourite fictional characters to putting up eye-catching make-up or face painting and simply taking photographs, Halloween is the season to let our imagination and creativity run free. As such, it would be a waste not to document your creative masterpiece and share it with your friends on social media platforms.
For this particular reason, here are some tips on how you can take your Halloween photography to the next level with the realme 11 Pro+ 5G, the mobile photography expert.
Tips #1 – Balance the light sources
Great lighting is the cherry on the cake that turns a good photo into a great one. But to faithfully capture the spirit of the spooky season, Halloween photographs are often taken under low-light conditions. This might be a challenge, as low light can bring down the quality of pictures and make them look blurred.
The upgraded Samsung ISOCELL HP3 within the realme 11 Pro+ 5G comes with a 1/1.4” large sensor that gathers more light. Coupled with the Super NightScape and ProLight algorithm, the stylish-looking smartphone can easily capture magical shots with intricate details. Mobile photographers can also take advantage of realme 11 Pro+ 5G’s Portrait mode, as it delivers DSLR-quality bokeh portraits that retain natural skin texture thanks to the 2x In-sensor Zoom.
Tips #2 – Create an eerily effect with long exposure
Spice up your Halloween game with some unique, creative photos that will amaze your friends on Instagram and TikTok. A simple starter would be leveraging the long exposure to add an eerie, ghostly trail to your movement.
Here’s the trick: Lower the ISO (ISO indicates how sensitive your camera sensor is to light) and reduce the shutter speed to between one and four seconds, depending on how dark the scene is. Once the configuration is set, lock in focus on your subject and start to capture. Then, have your subject move around (whether walking, dancing or panning their head from left to right) during the first half of the exposure to create a trail-like movement, then pause in place for the remaining duration. And ta-da, there you have it.
Tips #3 – Make use of the Filters
In a world where the beauty of authenticity is celebrated, using the right image filters could further elevate the quality of your pictures. Co-created with Lonely Planet, the realme 11 Pro+ 5G brings three exclusive artistic filters – Crisp, Cinematic, and Tranquil – for users to add a unique, nostalgic texture to their Halloween pictures.
You can also take things further by making a few adjustments:
- Increase the contrast: Everyday portraits typically favour soft light, but for Halloween photographs, a striking and sharp contrast is what you need.
- Desaturate the colour: Halloween photographs are not always in black and white; having a little colour might make the pictures look more dreary and Halloween-ish.
Launched in July 2023, the realme 11 Pro+ 5G is a powerful smartphone that marries the best of both worlds: exceptional mobile photography capabilities and stunning design. It carries the world’s first 200MP SuperZoom shooter with 4x in-sensor lossless zoom and OIS (Optical Image Stabilisation) powered by an upgraded Samsung ISOCELL HP3 sensor. Results? Crystal clear photographs and videos with vivid detail and unparalleled quality.
Wait no more and dive into a world with outstanding mobile photography with the realme 11 series.
