Prose on Happy Life in Light and Shadow

Happiness is the only secret to staying healthy. -inscription

A touch of purple glow painted the tall statue of Xin Qiji standing by the Xinjiang River golden. Under the statue, there is an old man with gray hair, who is holding a SLR camera at the statue and then shooting with a silver river as the background; It will be set off by rows of modern high-rise buildings on the other side. After a while, he stood on the high platform and put the majestic Nine Lions Bridge under the statue of Xin Qiji. He tried his best to show the perfect unity of light and shadow in the photos, praising Xin Qiji's patriotic feelings and the immortality of Xin Ci. He is Comrade Chen Guangxing, Vice Chairman of the Senior Sports Association of Lead Mountain County and Deputy Secretary of the Senior Branch of Grain Bureau.

Comrade Chen Guangxing likes photography very much since he was a child. He bought books and taught himself the knowledge of aperture, shutter and focusing relationship, as well as photography skills such as light composition. But because of the heavy task, I am busy with my work. I don't have more time to do my favorite photography. 200 1 After retirement, Comrade Chen Guangxing bought a digital camera with adjustable focal length and time. Since then, he likes to travel between various scenic spots and landscapes in urban and rural areas of Qian Shan, and has taken many photos, including the old shops and old streets in Hekou, Shitang and Chenfang Ancient Town. There is the well-known Ehu Academy at home and abroad, and there is the tomb site of Park Quan, a living fossil of Xin Qiji. There are Taoist holy mountains, Gexian Mountain and Ehu Temple, where incense is flourishing. There are also thousands of ancient bridges, such as Yongping Dayi Bridge, Hufang Bridge and Chengbo Bridge. Every year, when rape blossoms and lotus flowers fill the pool, he will still take a walk beside many fields in the county, or take a panoramic view of the golden and dazzling rape flowering period with antique houses as the background. Or take close-ups of budding pink lotus flowers. He carefully created hundreds of landscape photos. He often sends the latest live photos with beautiful music as "beautiful articles" to the WeChat circle of friends for more friends to enjoy, so that people in the circle of friends can also enjoy this beauty. Won the unanimous praise of everyone.

In order to take ideal photos and seize fleeting opportunities, Chen Guangxing often takes many classic landscape photos in the middle of the night when it is dark or the sun is shining, which can be used to make picture books and magazine covers. For example, in order to shoot the sunrise or moonlight with the 28-meter-high statue of Xin Qiji as the background, and the different weather in spring, summer, autumn and winter, he often waits for several hours by the statue and takes many photos that he is satisfied with and others like. In order to shoot the rare "double-decked octagonal pavilion" in Hongqiao Township, more than 20 kilometers away, he rode his bicycle several times to shoot. Or with the setting sun as the background, or with the ears of rice as the front, I took a beautiful landscape painting, which was later published in a magazine. 20 16 One of his photos won the second prize in 500 yuan. This is in return for his persistent interest in photography.

Comrade Chen Guangxing loves photography and has good skills, which soon spread in the circle of friends in Lead Mountain. In addition to old friends and old comrades having festive parties, he will bring his camera when invited, often take photos, take pains, and even provide free services. Some people say that this is a big loss. Chen Guangxing kept smiling. "Why not bring happiness to others?"

Now, Chen Guangxing's "business" has expanded to the photo report of the senior sports association, like a full-time reporter. In order to better participate in the photography of sports associations, he also bought a SLR Canon digital camera of nearly 10,000 yuan at his own expense last year, which made his photography hobby more handy and helped the work of sports associations for the elderly. At present, many senior sports associations in towns and villages in the county have activities, and he is often invited to participate. He never gets tired of it. We asked him to retire, but he still ran around without asking for help. Are you tired? He said: "Running around is also exercise. Help others and be happy. It's a great sense of accomplishment to see the photos published in Shangrao Senior Magazine. How well you speak! This is the idea advocated by a retired cadre, which is worth learning from our retirees.
