我们在那时刻看着小市区的灯光在河水上反射。
新安江，屯溪区，黄山市，中国安徽。
Long manual exposure on a tripod, about 10 seconds. Canon 450D, Sigma 18-200mm f3.5.
I miss this river, particularly at night.

Late Afternoon, Budapest Train Station (2011)
This photo was taken in Budapest’s Keleti Train Station. The first time I looked at the photo as it came out of the Canon 550D, I noticed a large green aura in the middle of the image and felt an eerie vibe. Turns out it may be a defect from the Canon 50mm f1.8 lens, but it’s striking how it combines with sunbeams streaming in the enormous window to focus our gaze on the ghostlike older gentleman.
Silent Qi Gong, Monastery in Chengde, China (2012)
I’ll kick off this long-delayed (since 2005…) photo blog with a favorite photo of mine from Chengde, China. This is inside a Buddhist Monastery with a Tibetan-style architecture, located not far from the Emperor’s Mountain Resort (BiShuShanZhuang – 避暑山庄). Taken on a Canon AE-1 with 50mm prime lens, on Kodak 400TX.
Three elements in this photograph that I enjoy:
- The woman’s fragmented shadow as she practices Qi Gong (Tai Qi)
- The beautiful texture & patterns created by the bricks
- Her awesome white sun visor
Any thoughts on how to format/display this series?
