What is the metaphor of chasing light and shadow?

It is basically accurate to describe the photographer's behavior with "chasing the light and chasing the shadow". Perhaps, you don't have to care too much about shooting humanistic themes, but if you want to shoot some interesting films, shooting landscape themes is a very important factor.

Recently, when I see the seemingly good weather, I will wander around the nearby Qinhuai River and Baijiahu business circle, and I will feel more about it when filming.

Of course, even if you know this truth, your subjective obsession may not always be what you want. Perhaps, the imagined climatic conditions did not appear, and the natural shooting effect was not ideal; Perhaps, there are imaginary climatic conditions, but for some reasons, the final shooting effect is not ideal, which is very common.

One evening, looking at the fine weather, I went to Baijia Lake and wanted to take some photos of the sunset. However, there are no imaginary meteorological conditions, and the surrounding area is under construction. After taking a few photos, I lost my mood.

But since I'm here, let's take some night pictures. We can't come for nothing. On the other hand, light is also light, and chasing is not bad.
