Snow Ji-Appreciation of Works

"Clouds open and rain disperse, and the color area is bright". Wang Bo, a young genius, paid tribute to Chu Qing after the rain. The moment it clears up after the snow, it gives people more visual shock. Such a magnificent royal garden, only the small scenery here is particularly unique. The distant mountains are out of reach, and the near bridge is still near. Song is not old, the ancient pavilion is still there. The veins of hot springs are full of purple gas, which reflects white light in cold snowy days. If it weren't for the vast expanse of Chu Yang after the snow, it would be difficult to tell the fairyland. This beautiful scenery can be reflected on paper, which is a rare masterpiece. What is the state if you rely entirely on plain yarn? No matter what theme or style of photography creation, the expression of picture texture directly reflects the theme and connotation of the photo. Good creation is not only the reference and deduction of classics, but also the subversion of traditional artistic goals. The more successful a work is, the more subversive it is. I had this idea at the beginning of writing this work. The selection of early material is particularly important for the embodiment of image texture, so every texture in the material should be extremely clear and handled properly; In the process of mid-production, we should not only show the artistic conception of traditional scenery to the maximum extent, but also break away from convention and innovate in content and form. This innovation is not only reflected in the scrutiny of freehand brushwork landscapes, but also in the creativity of digital post-production; Finally, when it was finished, it broke through the traditional rectangular frame and sketched the edges freely, which not only improved the composition but also adapted to the overall creative style. After the work was finished, it was teased by friends. It was as thin as cicada wings and as light as smoke, but it was like a cultural relic unearthed in Mawangdui. Compared with the national treasure plain clothes, my "cultural relics" may be less mysterious and more exquisite.

Bashang works

Bashang-Appreciation of Works

In early autumn, there is a vast world of grass everywhere, and strong winds and green waves roll into magnificent scenery. Horses stuffed with velvet; The trees have fallen leaves. Seasonal changes should be reflected in them, but now withered grass has stolen the limelight. The expression of photos is not only a record, but also a judgment of the world. If you can record such a landscape, it is certainly valuable. If we can try to combine the texture of horse hair with the movement of grassland, so as to derive a sensory experience similar to touch, this should be the imprint that the photo gives us. So I decisively threw away all the colors and acted as simply as possible in extremely complicated emotions. This kind of minimalist expression will not abandon the theme, but will make it more prominent. Photography itself is a way of mixed viewing. Any expression of photography art should be concise, and skilled photographers can abstract and decompose the world in the lens instantly. Then a successful photographer can shoot everything well and use unique creative means to ensure that his works are infallible. Before taking this photo, I thought: See that horse? Let me feel its fur!

Red Lotus in Impression of the Lotus Pond

Red Lotus in Impression of the Lotus Pond —— Appreciation of the Works

Living in the gap of time, we have no choice. Good things are fleeting, and the magic of photography lies in turning moments into eternal power. Lotus leaves will not turn green the next day, and lotus flowers are particularly bright red in the sun. The former "red" is very vivid and meaningful here. It is in this work that a large area of red is used as the background to reproduce yesterday's grand occasion; Warm yellow symbolizes the seeds of hope, the quality that has been hidden for thousands of years and has not rotted; In addition, the main body of the lotus is painted in black of achromatic color, which symbolizes the heartless passing away, dryness and death of life. Such a beautiful theme may also become the object of sorrow. If a photo is a symbol of extinction, then when you take a photo, you are experiencing the death and perishable of things. As a photographer, we must foresee this ruthlessness in order to accurately divide and solidify every moment and witness the passage of time with photos. Together, we can accurately reflect all the propositions we see, think and feel in the pictures. This last petal is the appearance of passing away, proclaiming the innocence, innocence and fragility of life when it passes away. The click of the shutter is more like pulling the trigger. Red lotus is immortal in silence.

Lan Lian in Impression of the Lotus Pond —— Appreciation of the Works: Thousands of forests are swept away, but only hibiscus exists alone. By the end of summer, this kind of "stunner" born in water and slightly cold in temperament slowly stretched her waist, like a beauty taking a bath. Koi fish occasionally frolics under the lotus pond; Tingting leaves out of the water sway with the wind, playing a wonderful melody; Tight buds are as shy as girls, and blooming flowers are as charming as prostitutes. Since ancient times, lotus has been used to describe beauty, freshness, elegance, gentleness and subtlety. In the artistic expression of lotus, it is also exquisite and unique, in fact, it is beautiful to a state. If we can learn from the traditional painting style, it must be a good continuation. However, as a new visual effect, watching photography means finding the perception of beauty in things that people are used to and not surprised. PopArt (Popart) originated in the United States, representing a popular culture, with unconventional ideas, reflecting the bold creative performance of young artists after the war. This style is more or less reflected in this work. The exaggerated use of contrast color makes the picture visually very conflicting and expressive; The details of the image are abstracted, and the gradient application is carried out in the lightness interval of the blue-yellow domain, so that the details are reproduced in the form of concepts; At the same time, in the treatment of visual center of gravity, as far as possible to reflect the texture of brush strokes in painting, adding the finishing touch to the picture. After the completion of Lotus, it's like drawing a bone in a very Leng Yan tone and an eyebrow in a very warm tone. As we can see, each color has its own specific personality and language. If we can use it reasonably, our pictures will have a brand-new concept to interpret. Then, the fragrance is far and clear, and the graceful lotus flower can not only have an implicit temperament, but also proudly show people.

Creative work escape

Escape-appreciation of works

At first, God created heaven and earth. The earth is empty and chaotic. The deep side is dark. God said, let a light body in the sky shine on the sky and the earth. Day and night management, light and shade are separated. -Genesis of the Bible

Many noble feelings of human beings stem from fear. I have unspeakable fears about darkness, cold, loneliness, strangeness, sin and the future. Therefore, on the first day of creation, God said that there should be light for all beings for an eternal day; On the fourth day, it was half a night, so black and white alternated and repeated. Darkness will not only urge us to seek light, but also give us a quiet space to rest and reflect. Every photo must contain one thing, and that is the humanity at that moment. This work is more like a Gothic fairy tale than a fable. The vision is broad and unfamiliar, which makes people shudder; The architectural structure of the right hand, like a huge whirlpool, keeps pushing us down; The dark environment increases the sense of urgency, as urgent as a ghost; I even heard the huge rumble of the factory and the crying of birds tearing. Nightmare-like scenes, instant turnaround, let us have nowhere to hide. It tries to analyze the hidden fears in the human spiritual world and arouse the most primitive awakening in our hearts. Just like the white dove that flew back first, it may represent the last yearning and direction. The Mayan prophecy has gone far away. Compared with words, pictures can see the depths of the pure land more intuitively. If it is photo creation, the reconstruction of the world begins with every photo; But as a real life, I hope that the reconstruction of the world will stop at this kind of creativity.

Distant Home-Appreciation of Works

homeland dreamland

The first time I saw her, I carved her appearance and will never forget it. When I went to see her again, I never saw her eyes. I can only hear her say something like a ballad. Those who can't reach it are far away, and those who can't go back are hometown. I stood on the bridge that day and watched the scenery. The old lady Jiao Zi on the east side of the bridge is rolling in the hot pot. The old man in Qiaoxi slammed chess, and Liu brushed his face and didn't know where. At this time, will the people watching the scenery also see me and feel the pain of a passenger facing the lights and distant shadows alone? Missing home and mother is an innate emotion of human beings. Photography is such an art of chasing the soul. When we recall the past, we will take pictures. The photos are clear and concrete, which can be regarded as a commemoration of success, and its imagination of childbirth is even more unconstrained. Now is a good time for nostalgia. One hundred years ago, the impact of photography on realistic painting school made the camera known as "evil black box" for a long time. Monet, Manet and other impressionists should never have thought that photography could also find inspiration from him and create surprising works. One hundred years later, the development of photography technology is staggering. The development of the late digital age makes it possible to express this emotion in creation. But compared with many art categories, photography is more like a wanderer. Learning and trying all kinds of painting styles is both growth and reward. My pillow is like a jade moon, and I vaguely return home in my dream. Such a simple and almost sketchy water town is not only a little impression of the hometown of Tianya Wanderer, but also a tribute and conversion to the impressionist photography school.

Jiangjia yard

Standing in this position, you can have a panoramic view of the compound. Siheyuan has been in the world since the Ming and Qing Dynasties, but its rise and fall are endless. If the yard can tell stories, every tile and gravel has something to say. The ancestors of Yanhuang, the Chinese civilization and the capitals of past dynasties are closely related to this fertile land. At that time, the prosperity faded, but it was not wrapped in silver. Early winter is a good season. Jiang Family Courtyard has experienced vicissitudes for more than a hundred years. The scene of the past no longer exists, but the blood of China people and the feelings of innocent people have settled in the years. Overlooking this place, behind the ordinary houses is Qian Shan, and the stories of ordinary people can be circulated in this peaceful and prosperous time. The photo itself will not explain anything, but it will tirelessly invite people to interpret, guess and imagine. Any landscape in front of me has the right to exist. What I need to do is to carefully collect and sort out the details here and leave images. Collecting photos is collecting the world, and sorting photos is sorting out history. In the process of sorting out hundreds of shooting materials, the idea of collage came into being. It's already a draft, but it looks like a preliminary product to be continued. I never cut it into rules, because at every moment when there is space, I can't predict what surprises this yellow land will leave me in the future. Don't disturb their existence. If one day I find that this work is different from today, it must be that I have stood in this position again and found new signs.
