Yuanminghui photography

Yuan Minghui, a native of Wuhan, Hubei Province, was the first China photographer to complete the Grand Slam of Natural Photography. I know him because he won the WPY Award.

The annual British International Wildlife Photography Competition WPY is jointly organized by the British Museum of Natural History and the BBC, which is best at photographing animals and plants.

He said that he was influenced by his idol and wrote down what he said-he spent 42 years waiting for the moment to accumulate and press the shutter. He knows the meaning of waiting, "once every three years", waiting for the beautiful picture of imagination-dragonfly mating (hard work is indispensable). He knows the habits of insects and thinks that "it is easier to wait at their doorstep for every place where insects live."

When we shoot more and see more things, we will know something about photography. Photography is an aesthetics and pays attention to artistry. Don't forget your love for photography.

Yuan Quotations:

Only in nature can I feel relaxed and comfortable.

I'm miserable. It's really hard to photograph laid-off workers and tear down old houses that are more bitter than you. I learn photography first to entertain myself, and I have to enjoy it. So I always feel that I fell in love with nature first, and then with photography.

I don't care about changing money and winning prizes. Anyway, I'm glad to see these little creatures.

The closer you are to your heart, the closer you look.

⑤ Finding beauty is not the lens, but the heart.

6. Species are degenerating, and so is human cognition.

⑦ Most people look down on these tiny creatures and inadvertently panic about them.
