202 1 Luoping rape flower, ink terrace, Maitreya fire festival, Dongchuan red land folk custom

The annual "fire sacrifice" of the Ahi people in Maitreya, Yunnan, is also called "Naked Carnival". Very traditional national festivals are full of primitive, novel and mysterious colors. Young and strong men have nude tattoos on their faces, and ethnic groups gather to perform with unique national characteristics such as singing, dancing and wrestling. The tattooed man jumps over the fire, crosses the fire, and throws his Mu Cha and gun into the fire, which means to drive away all disasters, filth and evil spirits.

Photographic short sentences:

1, Yunnan: It is famous for its beauty, richness and magic, which fascinates countless photographers. The wonderful scenery recorded with the lens will flow quietly in memory forever.

Fire sacrifice means that evil spirits have been burned out, and Vulcan will bless the bumper harvest in the coming year and live a long life. With the rough and unrestrained big three-stringed sound, regardless of men, women and children, the villagers jumped up "One Xi Yue Yue" born in this land, giving vent to their greatest desire and happiness in the past year.

3. February-March every year is the best time to photograph Luoping rape field. Under the sunshine, the golden sea of flowers is accompanied by the spring breeze and pastoral songs, and the fine waves roll. The beautiful peaks, quaint cottages and winding rivers nearby have all merged into a sea of rape flowers, forming a splendid and wonderful picture.

Every year in this season, the hometown of Hani nationality will introduce springs and streams from all over the mountains into the terraced fields to prepare for transplanting rice in May. At this time, all the terraces have become mirrors, reflecting the blue sky, white clouds, sunrise and sunset, forming beautiful light and shadow changes.

5. Dongchuan red land is famous for its magical and beautiful charm; Xiaojiang Valley is a typical rainstorm and debris flow area in the world, and Jiaozi Snow Mountain is known as "the first mountain in central Yunnan" because of its "male, strange, dangerous and steep".

Photography route:

D 1: All places-Kunming Address: Kunming

D2: Kunming-Luoping Su: Luoping

After breakfast, I went to Luoping. In the thick green hills, pieces of rape blossoms are dazzling yellow, splashing like waves, splashing pieces of broken flowers, so bright, so golden and fascinating. In the afternoon, shoot rape flowers in niujie snail farm. The terraces in this place are unique. The tan ridge is like a spiral on a screw. Terraces are cultivated one by one in the valley, and rape flowers are in full bloom on the terraces. From top to bottom, large tracts of rape terraces are layered and poetic.

Luosidian: Located in niujie, 10 kilometers northwest of the county seat, Luosidian is one of the most famous rape flower shooting places. The terraces here are round, which looks like a spiral on a screw from a distance. The golden yellow rape flower circles extend upward, which is very spectacular.

D3: Luoping-Yuanyang Hotel: Yuanyang

In the morning, I went to the ten thousand mu rape flower sea in Jinjifeng area, where I photographed the karst landform. The mountains are endless, the peaks are vast, the soup is boundless, and the golden world set off by blue sky and white clouds is also an ocean of flowers. Climbing the mountain, I saw the endless sea of rape flowers, dotted with villages and streams.

Jinjifeng: Located in the east of Yunnan Province, at the junction of Yunnan, Guangxi and Guizhou provinces (regions), it is known as "the gateway to eastern Yunnan" and "the hub of Yunnan and Guizhou"; Yamazaki has a long history and beautiful scenery: deep valleys crisscross, basins and ridges alternate, and carbonate rocks are widely distributed, which is a very typical karst landform wonder. Climb to the top of the mountain and shoot rape blossoms. This is the best place to shoot the sunrise.

After breakfast, I went to Yuanyang and had lunch on the way. In the afternoon, I photographed the sunset in Mali Village Tea Factory. Every time after 4 pm, the white Erhai Lake gradually turns pink and red with the sunset. Then turn it into pink and white. It is the best place to watch and photograph terraces that change with the light. The criss-crossing buildings also clearly fabricate the most beautiful and complicated lines in the world, like grand movements and exciting rhythms. At the same time, there is a great temperature difference between morning and evening and daytime in this season. Every morning, as the temperature rises, the water forms a dense fog and gradually becomes a sea of clouds covered with terraces. At first glance it looks like a fairyland.

D4: Yuanyang cabin: Yuanyang

Creating in Yuanyang terraced fields all day. In the morning, shoot the sunrise at the terraced fields in Duoyishu, and then shoot at Huangcaoling; In the afternoon, shoot the sunset in Mali Village or the Tiger Mouth Terrace (the Tiger Mouth Terrace is under maintenance due to landslide, depending on the situation at that time).

Terraces in Duoyishu: The sunrise in Duoyishu is the most beautiful. Even if you can't see the sunrise, its morning is a dynamic landscape, which is extremely beautiful. Among the photos you see about Yuanyang, one more tree is probably the most. Like printmaking, the color is changeable, especially at sunrise, the color of the water in front of you is dizzying, and the village of one more tree looming under the misty rain is a fantasy in reality.

Huangcaoling Terraces: Although the terraces here are not as spectacular as those in other places, they are also a must for photographers to shoot terraces in Yuanyang. The terraces are layered, and the lines on the ridge are euphemistic and rich, which is very layered. Halfway up the mountain, a small village looks like a fairyland against the morning light. The terraced fields in front of the village extend far away, which is a very beautiful terraced landscape in Huangcaoling.

D5: Yuanyang-Maitreya: Maitreya

After breakfast, go to Qingkou terrace to shoot the sunrise, and then go to Maitreya. After dinner, I focused on the shooting techniques and matters needing attention of the humanistic documentary of Axi Fire Festival.

Qingkou Terrace: Surrounded by mountains, the south and west are gentle, and there is a small village halfway up the mountain in the north. The terrain in the east is dangerous, but it is the best place to shoot the sunrise. When it comes to foggy days, the terraces are hidden from time to time, just like an idyllic fairyland. Take a local composition with a telephoto lens. ......

D6: Maitreya: Maitreya

All-day shooting of Yi people's fire-offering activities: painting mud, turning wood to make fire, jumping fire gods, Songmao long street banquet, Axi jumping on the moon, etc. Cai Huojie: Also known as "Naked Carnival". Very traditional national festivals are full of primitive, novel and mysterious colors. Young and strong men have nude tattoos on their faces, and ethnic groups gather to perform with unique national characteristics such as singing, dancing and wrestling. The tattooed man jumps over the fire, crosses the fire, and throws his Mu Cha and gun into the fire, which means to drive away all disasters, filth and evil spirits.

Maitreya Fire Sacrifice: The Axi people of Yi nationality advocate fire and have been attached to it all their lives, from the naming ceremony held in the fire pit at birth to various activities that cannot be separated from fire. They believe that fire brings light and warmth to people, cooked food and drives away fierce beasts, so they regard fire as a god. Legend has it that there was no fire in the ancient Ashi tribe, and the ancestors of Ashi lived a life without light. They not only ate raw meat, but were often attacked by wild animals. After a flood, an ancestor named Mudeng sat on a rotten piece of wood and used a wooden stick to make holes and grind the ground. Gradually, a spark finally appeared on the third day of the second lunar month, and he became angry. Since then, the wild era of eating animals and blood has ended, the crops on the five-color soil are ripe, and the fire has brought light and warmth to people. Ashi people regard the legendary inventor "Mudenseru" as a "Vulcan" sacrifice, which has been handed down from generation to generation.

D7: Maitreya-Red Land Residence: Red Land

In the morning, continue to shoot assisi culture such as Maitreya culture, folk customs and folkways, and then drive to Red Land. In Dongchuan in March, it snows in March in most years, and the sunny red land after the snow is really beautiful. Lunch on the way, afternoon, see the time. On the red land, the tour guide teacher selectively shoots the location and stays on the red land.

D8: Red Land House: Red Land

Shoot the sunrise in Luoxiagou in the morning, and then shoot along the way; In the afternoon, Lepo went up the mountain to shoot the sunset.

Luoxiagou: also known as Luoxiagou Moon Field, "Moon Field", what a poetic name. Just like the "Moon Bay" I saw in Kanas scenic spot in Xinjiang last year, it is also a deep canyon with a crescent-shaped landscape, but here are colorful farmland and a blue river. Moon field is an "earth sculpture" that perfectly integrates canyon landscape and terraced wetland landscape.

Notch of music: With the change of spring and autumn and the change of seasons, the lines of the notch of music never repeat, and the scenery composed of swaying plants never repeats. For more than a year, the ever-changing scores of music have become musicians' staff, and the ever-changing lines and scenery have become music that musicians keep writing. Over time, layers of paradise piled up like mountains, and hardworking farmers cultivated layer after layer.

D9: Red Land-Kunming

Shooting the sunrise in fairview park. After breakfast, I returned to Kunming and ended my pleasant photography trip.

Jinxiu Garden: It is the largest and most imposing place among all shooting spots in Dongchuan Red Land. It is a large concave land, and there is a sightseeing plank road along the height of the mountainside, with a wide view. The characteristic of the scenery is that you can see a large continuous hillside and see different scenery from different angles. Compared with Damakan and Luoxiagou, it is less atmospheric and more beautiful, suitable for shooting local light;

Tips: The arrival time in Kunming is about 2:30 pm. I suggest you bring some snacks to satisfy your hunger. Considering the transportation arrangements chosen by the filmmakers and some unexpected situations on the road, it is recommended that the filmmakers buy tickets after 4 pm. I wish you all a safe journey!

Preferential price: 3800 yuan/person; Arrangement: March10-March 18.

1, some scenic spots in the red land are about 2450 meters above sea level, and strenuous exercise will soon lead to panting. There is a great temperature difference between day and night here. Coat, short sleeves, not one less. It's really hard to wash the red soil off your body and serve it. Don't wear light clothes and shoes.

2, shooting angle: landscape photographers have a mantra: "Good photos come out, etc." We can see how important the angle is to landscape photography through professionalism. There are usually three angles, the most is flat feet, followed by backhand and prone hitting. The shooting of red land can be done in the way of overhead shooting, which can highlight the layering of the picture.

3. The weather in Kunming doesn't change much all year round, but because the red land scenic spot is on the mountain, the temperature is 4-8 degrees lower than that under the mountain, and the wind is strong in many places, and the temperature difference between morning and evening is also large. Please bring thicker clothes, and it is better to bring an extra sweater.

It's best to put two pieces of chocolate, beef jerky or compressed biscuits in the camera bag, which can supplement the heat at a critical moment.

4. Take care of the public environment and don't throw rubbish at will.

5. Respect the local customs, folk customs and religious beliefs of the shooting place.

When you see the beautiful scenery, don't get emotional and get carried away. You must find the shooting location on the premise of ensuring your own safety.

7. Safety comes first when you are away from home. Please don't take part in some dangerous activities outside the photography tour.

8. Each scenic spot has its own characteristics, especially the scenery changes in different periods. After the rain, the red soil is particularly gorgeous, the color of the red soil will be slightly dim in the morning, and the light and color will be better at night.

9. In order to provide you with more photography space and enrich the width of your photography, you should always live with your camera, eat nearby, and record the local customs and local beauty as much as possible while enjoying the flavor of local dishes.

10, when you go to shoot, you'd better wear some light, non-slip and comfortable shoes to reduce fatigue.
