Reflections on man and land.

After reading a book, everyone must gain a lot. At this time, it is necessary to carefully record and write down the feelings after reading. So how to write a post-reading feeling is more infectious? The following are my thoughts on people and land carefully arranged, hoping to help everyone.

Thinking about man and land 1 "Everything is changing and disappearing. In the process of change and disappearance, there is a moment. Being recorded by the camera becomes eternal. " Ruan said in the preface that this simple and heavy book contains the gift of God, and the black and white photos in the book seem to be "the shutter pressed by God".

Shuitou Village, Puli Town "It was a sunny summer afternoon, and several children in Shuitou Village, a suburb of Puli Town, jumped up and down on the two dikes of the irrigation canal, which was faster and more accurate." The children don't care about winning or losing, and deliberately let each other, "Everyone has tasted the sweetness of winning, but how many adults can taste the sweetness of losing like you?" The "loss" in the child's heart is nothing more than accidentally falling behind and falling down. They will clap their hands, get up again and try their best to rush forward. However, with the passage of time and the changes of the times, adults always frown because of the blow. How many of them, like the children in the photo, regard the challenge as a game and the pleasure gained in the process is more important than winning or losing?

Remember how to play hopscotch? In The Earth Game and Harmonica Dance, there were no toys at that time. "As long as there is space, find a brick and draw a grid with a stone" is the greatest pleasure! The children in the photo are barefoot and in close contact with the earth. The "house" on the ground is not beautifully painted, but the memory of playing with friends must be the best. In today's senior kindergartens, "house" is printed on all plastic floors. Those houses are square, with all kinds of numbers or patterns printed on them, but they are very rigid and lifeless.

In this long time flow, something has disappeared unconsciously, and I suddenly remembered fireflies, which are a very beautiful creature. I remember someone saying, "The stars in the sky and the fireflies on the ground are all reasons why I am addicted to summer nights." Fireflies are fireflies, everyone is familiar with them, but how many people have really seen fireflies, and they have seen fireflies flying and shining in summer nights? I haven't seen it. In the eyes of most children, fireflies are just cartoon images with big eyes on the big screen of TV. That's all our generation knows about fireflies.

With the progress of science and technology, "the mud floor of hopscotch was paved with cement, and cement houses were built in the village", and those simple traces were buried underground. People have gained a lot and lost a lot in high technology. It's hard to see the pictures in Taste the Lost Sweetness and Earth Game and Harmonica Dance, which are what people call "the past".

Although these things have faded out of the circle of human life, this beautiful memory is recorded in the book "Man and Land". These photos retain the beauty of human nature and freeze these beauty in the photos. The two contradictory words "disappearance" and "eternity" are fused together in this book.

Thinking about Man and Land 2 "Man and Land" is a book of photography and prose. The author Ruan walks in every corner of rural Taiwan Province, capturing simplicity and beauty. The colorful life makes us forget our memories, but Ruan's black-and-white photos take away our souls, and every moment recorded reveals the essence of life. Ruan said: "Looking back, all the good photos I took, including all the people, things and things in front of the camera, were a gift from heaven!" This gift with heavy energy is related to all aspects of people and land.

The child's heart is pure, without a trace of debris. Although they have not experienced ups and downs, they are full of curiosity and excitement rather than fear about foreigners and things. Perhaps because of this, there are always children in Ruan's photography collection.

Childhood is a carefree period for us, without any social pressure and heavy burden. In front of the dusty church, Ruan just wanted to continue his journey. When God seems to play a joke on them, he will stay in this place for a few days, but when God closes a door, he will open another window for you. Several children were sitting on a haystack dozens of meters away from the construction site. Ruan recorded this moment with his shutter, and these little guys grinned one by one, showing more excitement than doubt in front of a stranger. At that moment when the sky was vast, even the children showed kindness and made people warm. For modern children, what they present is just an unnecessary femininity, shyly covering their faces in front of the camera, as if afraid of what they will lose. This is sad. We should not forget the simplicity and the expression of truth, goodness and beauty in life far away from the countryside.

Photography records not only a moment, but also the blooming of a heart. "Photography should be an expectation and a blessing." In a clean school, there is not much noise, and there is no happy sound when children are having fun. It turned out that they were raising the flag. It is gratifying that the lonely rows of children are filled with awe when facing a flag-raising platform that is too small to stand for two people. Although the towering peaks make the scattered teachers and students thinner, when they began to sing loudly, every lyric came back to life, giving this empty land an affectionate hymn. I would like to believe that they are like "newly unearthed seedlings, which will become trees by the end of next year."

At night, children who are going home always have a unique idea, and their inner feelings can be released at this time. The smoke curled up in front of them is exactly what they yearn for. Adults end the day's hard work, children end the day's play, and food can bring them a sense of fullness both physically and mentally. "A child riding a bicycle passed behind me ... The child was obviously on his way home, and every pedal was so willing and crossed." The person who lives the most meaningful life is not necessarily the person who lives the oldest, but the person who feels the deepest about life.

Land, a gift for children, was recorded by the camera. Children's various attitudes can often make people realize the historical testimony of people and land. The land breeds children's innocent eyes and white friendship between children.

Man and land seem to be the most sincere and natural fit in the heart.
