travel starts with photography

Chapter 289 The world is beautiful, the world is worth it
When the photo came out, Chen Xing's adrenaline surged.

Very happy.

Any exercise that requires waiting a long time, just for this moment of results, will be addictive.

Like a fisherman.

Before fishing, I have made all the preparations, what fish I want to catch today, what bait to bring, what materials to use to attract this kind of fish and so on.But the final result is sometimes not satisfactory.

Just like the word Air Force, they are all out of the circle.

But if he really caught the fish he wanted, there is no doubt that this fisherman is happy.

Playing with the camera is the same way, waiting for a day, or even a few days, for a picture in my heart.Now that the results are out, the photos are even more beautiful than he imagined before. How can this not make Chen Xing excited.

Let him stay awake tonight!

Thinking about it carefully, there is no shortage of power now, so I might as well take a group of starry sky here.

This location itself is the highest mountain around, and it is the best place to take pictures of the starry sky, and the stone wall is too out of the picture, so I change the angle and take a picture of the starry sky with him as the scene, which is exactly the same as the sunset .

It's a pity that there are no such good birds to cooperate at night.

A flock of birds flying under the setting sun is definitely the finishing touch of this picture... The key is that these flocks of birds were not added by Chen Xing in the later stage. If someone zooms in on this picture in the future, they will be able to vaguely see it. To the appearance of a flock of birds.

After waiting for the sunset, Chen Xing now has to wait for the Milky Way.

The position of the Milky Way in the sky is not static. As the name suggests, it is a luminous belt-shaped object in the sky.Under normal circumstances, it is invisible to the human eye, unless you are in places like Xijiang and Tibet.

Beyond that, seeing the Milky Way is a matter of luck.

The camera can capture light information invisible to the naked eye through time-lapse photography, and with the photosensitive element that comes with a good camera, the appearance of the Milky Way can be portrayed in the photo.

The sunset is the main meal, and now Chen Xing ate the main meal, and stayed on the mountain for a few more hours for Xingkong's dumpling.

Just after twelve o'clock, Chen Xing heard someone talking.

After a while, two monks came up with flashlights, and when they saw Chen Xing still sitting on the mountain, they exhaled neatly and said, "Little brother, you scared us, why don't you go down the mountain so late?" ?”

Chen Xing pointed to the camera and said, "I'm taking pictures of the starry sky, and I'll be down in two hours."

Twelve o'clock is not good, it takes two o'clock to take pictures.

The position of the Milky Way is not static in the sky. A group of celestial bodies as large as others cannot be locked by the earth like the moon. Therefore, if you want the Milky Way to become part of the composition of your works, you have to wait slowly.

There are many star map software on mobile phones to see the position of the Milky Way at a certain point in time.

Chen Xing is the star map of the human body, which automatically identifies the positions of the planets in the sky.

"Then we can rest assured."

Chen Xing said, "I'm sorry to have made the masters worry."

He only cared about being comfortable taking pictures, and never thought about this.

But who knows how many people will always worry about whether they have gone down the mountain?With the indifference of modern society, even if Chen Xing didn't go back, it would be more likely that he went back directly instead of running to the top of the mountain in the middle of the night to confirm.

"It's okay, then we'll go down first."

Another monk asked: "The benefactor can stay in our temple at night. There is no hotel in the village outside of us. If you want to go out and find a place to stay, you have to walk for at least two hours. It's too far away and it's not safe."

Chen Xing nodded and said, "Then I will trouble you."

The two monks didn't stay here to bother Chen Xing. They didn't know how to take pictures, and they didn't have anything to talk about when they stayed. They went down the mountain early so that they could arrange a room for Chen Xing.

Chen Xing was dozing off just now, but after chatting with someone for a while, he became more energetic.

The phone was running out of battery, and Chen Xing didn't dare to continue playing.

Galaxy is finally in place.

Chen Xing quickly took a picture.

Because there is no other industrial light around, the night sky is particularly bright, and the stone wall Buddha statue in the photo is also very bright because of the long exposure. It is almost another work that can be produced without post-processing.

[The stars are flat and wild, the moon is surging and the river is flowing, your persistence is not meaningless, the world is beautiful, she is worth your waiting]

[Your control over wide-angle lenses has increased]

At the beginning, I was shooting food, and then I gradually upgraded my ability to shoot portraits and buildings. Now the use of wide-angle lenses has also improved. Does it mean that my control over landscape movies has also improved?

While the Milky Way was still there, Chen Xing took another picture.

Compared with the previous photo of the starry sky, it seems that the difference is not particularly obvious?
Chen Xing himself didn't think there was any big difference between the two pictures, maybe it can only be reflected by zooming in, right?So I stopped researching and started packing up my things and heading down the mountain.

Judging from his experience as an astronomer, it will definitely rain again in an hour or two at most.

The drought in the whole south this year has continued. I didn’t expect that Jiangxi has been raining for a few days. If this continues, can I still see Poyang Lake in the dry season?Don't wait for the water level to rise to the point where you can't go down and walk once you pass by.

It's better to go and see it earlier.

The grassland-like bottom of the lake really moved Chen Xing's heart.

The temple is lit, and at night, it can be seen from a long distance.

As they got closer, the familiar smell of burning incense became stronger and stronger.

This temple was built in a huge cave, and the whole is a slanted stone seam. When Chen Xing came down, there were monks chanting scriptures in the room of the "Daxiong Hall", probably waiting for Chen Xing.

Otherwise, the monks would have gone to bed by this time.

Someone approached, the monk opened his eyes vigilantly, saw that it was Chen Xing and said: "Benefactor, you are finally back."

"terribly sorry."

"What are you apologizing for? Come on, we have tidied up a room for you, but it's a bit shabby, and I don't know how you can't live in it."

He took Chen Xing to a nearby hall, and after opening a wooden door, there was a small room.

About four square or so.

There is a bed, a table, and here is the wall of the cave. The wall is black. It seems that the local people have been using this cave for a long time. Smoked like this.

And there is a lamp, it is still very good to live here in the summer night, at least the cave is very cool.

The monk went out for a while, and quickly knocked on the door with a mosquito coil, and said, "We made this incense ourselves, and it is very effective in repelling mosquitoes. The donor must be very tired after resting so late, so I won't bother you." "

"no problem, no problem!"

They were too polite, Chen Xing was not used to this kind of friendliness.

It is said that modern society is becoming more and more indifferent, but it is because of this indifference that people feel a kind of warmth from the heart when they discover a little kindness in society.This warmth can be passed on.

With Chen Xing's current treatment, if he meets someone who needs help in the next period of time, can he not help?

The monk also went to sleep.

Chen Xing looked around and found a socket.

The country has nothing to say about infrastructure construction. Maybe there are still many places in this society that are not connected to the Internet, but at least electricity has been fully connected. This temple built on a mountain is still relatively simple.

Chen Xing even knew that a single hunter's hut in the mountains of Tibet could enjoy the convenience of electric lights.

Get out your notebook.

He still can't sleep now, at least he won't be able to sleep until the two photos taken on the mountain are edited out.

The colors of the films produced by Hasselblad are very good, and Chen Xing is not going to change the color.

He wanted to use these two photos to win prizes, so he didn't have to do much color correction or retouching, just strengthen the contrast of light and shadow in some dark parts.

After repairing, Chen Xing emailed both photos to Seth, and also put the photos on his personal website.

Take it out for exhibition first, and talk about it after someone buys it.

Mr. Abbott only signed his own contract in Europe, so if people from other places are willing to buy Chen Xing's works, they still buy them on his website.

After finishing all this work, Chen Xing heard it was raining outside.

He opened the door and went out.

The Buddhist temple in the middle of the night looks very quiet, and this kind of popular temple will not make people feel the gloomy atmosphere.Because there was no door to cover the outside, the sound of the rain was particularly loud, hitting the leaves like a whip twitching.

Chen Xing took a chair and sat down where he could catch the rain with his hands.

The head is leaning on the recliner, the mobile phone is playing music, and the hand is placed on the abdomen.

The young man listened to the rain song upstairs, the red candle dazzled.

The middle-aged man listens to the rain in the boat, the river is wide and the clouds are low, and the broken wild goose is called the west wind.

Nowadays, listening to the rain, you have already stars.

The joys and sorrows are always ruthless, and every step of the term will last till dawn.

As the system said before.

The world is beautiful, and the world is worth it.

....................................

[You spent a night in the temple and got 30000 yuan in cash]

Chen Xing saw the news as soon as he woke up.

This surprised him a bit, isn't it possible for minority houses to be rewarded as well?
Chen Xing has not completed this long-term task for a long time. After reading the introduction, he realized that this task is to live in a building with special heritage, not a house for ethnic minorities as Chen Xing thought before.

Although the building of the Buddhist temple originated from Asan, it also absorbed many architectural features of the Central Plains when it came to China. Of course, it belongs to a building with a special heritage.

From this point of view, Taoism should also be able to do it?

There are really very few Taoists now. Chen Xing encountered many small temples during his travels, but Chen Xing had never encountered a Taoist temple.To be honest, this phenomenon made Chen Xing dare not think about it.

Taoism is China's native religion. Is it so weak now because it can't make money?

Thinking about it carefully, the decline of traditional Chinese culture is not limited to the Taoist lineage.

With a sigh, Chen Xing got up.

In the Daxiong Hall next to it, the recitation sounds are catchy, it should be the monks doing morning lessons.The Buddhist temple outside Chen Xing was raining all night, or because of the temperature difference between day and night or something, in short, some small drops of water condensed on the roof.

It must be very humid to live here for a long time, Chen Xing thought to himself.

At least the roof of the cave must be well protected from moisture, and the door must also be done, otherwise everything in the house cannot be preserved for a long time.

Huaxia's ancient buildings are amazing in this respect.

As long as someone lives in it, no matter how damp the house is or how bad the location is, he will always be able to stay stable.But if no one lives in it for ten days and a half months, the humidity alone can make these pillars in the temple moldy.

Then there is the collapse.

Feng Shui is also a science, and many things about Sha have been explained by modern science.

Some of them cannot be explained by science, nor can they be said to be false.

It can only be said that science has not yet developed to that level.

If you have a book, let science explain the acupoints of Chinese medicine in advance.

I went out to see the great monks chanting scriptures, stretched my body a little, and then went back to the room to see if Seth had sent me a new email.

Although he is in China, he still pays close attention to his photography exhibition.

It's a pity that he finally had his own personal photography exhibition, but he had to provide resources in China and was unable to visit it.

Who told me not to take more photos of this aspect before.

However, according to Seth, after the photography exhibition during this period and Abbott spent a lot of money to create enthusiasm for himself, at least his attributes as a Chinese-style photographer have been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people in Europe.

There are pros and cons to this.

In the future, when Chen Xing shoots some urban blockbusters, no matter how well he shoots, he will be inherently shorter than those western photographers.

It's like an ancient singer singing modern songs with good skills, but many listeners don't have such high music appreciation ability, so they can only think it sounds good.Then there are professional pop singers on the other side, and they sing very well.

The audience will subconsciously feel that pop singers are more professional.

On the contrary, when the singer sings ancient works, they will also feel that the song is good, the singer is really professional.

In general, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.

Because the current Huaxia is not the former Huaxia.

When you went on a trip a few years ago, you told people about Yanjing, but they didn't even know what it was.But now when traveling abroad, those foreigners don't talk about Yanjing, they still know Rongcheng and Jiangcheng.

There are more and more foreigners who can speak Chinese.

This is a precursor to the completion of the great cause of rejuvenation of the motherland.

After tidying up the room and carrying his backpack, Chen Xing went out to say hello to the monks who finished the morning class, and then said, "Is it always this humid here?"

"Damp? Did the donor not sleep well last night?"

"I slept well, but I saw some dewdrops in the morning."

"Oh, it doesn't matter, it's always there." The fat monk who was cooking said with a smile.

Chen Xing looked around, and there seemed to be no red boxes for collecting money in those big temples outside, so he asked: "Do you collect money for sesame oil here? I want to donate some money to you to make some moisture-proof things. A few doors would be best."

The old monk said: "No need, it's not easy to make money outside now."

Occasionally, he would take his apprentices to nearby attractions to sell some amulets, prayer beads, etc., and his income was barely enough for the people in the temple, and if there were too many, he would run out, so he knew how difficult it was to make money.

But Chen Xing persisted again and again.

He originally wanted to donate [-] yuan, but it looks like they are so kind.

Or donate what you earn from here.

The money taken from the Buddha is too hot to spend by yourself, so just send it back where it came from.For tens of thousands of dollars, Chen Xing didn't know if he could build them a door that could keep out the wind and rain, but at least he did his best.
