Everyone dreams of success , but why are so few successful? Jack Ma said, think of thousands of roads at night, and wake up in the morning and walk the same path. This is also my idea. To reflect on breakthroughs, we need to have the courage to break through, insist on self-innovation, and remember the origin of the photo of the angry Churchill:
On January 30, 1941, Churchill gave a speech in the House of Commons of Canada, and the young photographer Yusef Cash wanted to take a portrait of him. Although Churchill was reluctant, he accepted Cash's request. However, Cash was only given two minutes to take the photo.
? How can we take a good shot in two minutes? Cash's mind was spinning at high speed, racking his brains to think about how to create the image of this world famous person.
Cash turned over the images of Churchill he had seen in the past one by one in his mind. He discovered that the photos of Churchill that the world saw were either holding a cigar between his fingers or holding a cigar in his mouth. Almost without exception, they were all photos of him smoking a cigar. This is not surprising, because Churchill was a smoker and a lover of cigars. The key is that every photo is so elegant and majestic.
Kash believes that this is the period of World War II, and this elegance is inconsistent with the image of a "wartime prime minister." If I were to take another elegant photo of Churchill smoking a cigar, there would be nothing new, it would be the same. Therefore, he was determined to photograph a unique Churchill and reshape Churchill's image.
While Cash was still thinking, Churchill’s speech ended. Next, start taking photos of him.
Sure enough, Churchill lit a cigar again as he habitually did, put it into his mouth with a smile, and struck an elegant pose. He thought he was very proud, but Cash was not satisfied and did not press the shutter.
Time passed minute by minute, and two minutes were about to pass. Cash suddenly stepped forward and unexpectedly pulled out the burning cigar from Churchill's mouth.
Churchill was irritated by this sudden offense, and his eyes suddenly widened... It was too late to say it, but it was almost there. At this moment, Cash pressed the button With the shutter, the image of an angry Churchill without a cigar was fixed on the film, and the world-famous photography "Angry Churchill" was born.
With this photo, Cash, who was originally unknown, became one of the most famous portrait photographers in the world overnight. Countless celebrities and successful people came to ask him to take a portrait. Photos taken with pride.
However, Cash said: "People only saw my two minutes of success, but ignored my diligent efforts in the previous fifteen years and my courage to challenge .
