Chapter 289: The World Is Beautiful, The World Is Worth It

When the photo came out, Chen Xing's adrenaline surged. It was a lot of fun. Any exercise that has to wait a long time just for the results of this moment can be addictive.

It's like a fisherman. All the preparations are made before fishing, what fish you want to catch today, what bait you want to bring, what materials to use to attract this fish closer, etc.

But the end result is sometimes not as good as it could be. Just like the word Air Force, they are all out of the circle.

But if you really catch the fish you want, there is no doubt that this angler is happy.

It's the same with the camera, waiting for a day, or even a few days, for a mental picture.

Now that the results are out, the photos are even more beautiful than he imagined before, how can this not make Chen Xing feel excited.

Let him not sleep tonight! If you think about it carefully, there is no shortage of electricity now, so you can just shoot a group of starry sky here.

This location itself is the highest mountain around, which belongs to the best place to shoot the starry sky, and this stone wall is too outstanding, change the angle by yourself, take him as the scene and then take a picture of the starry sky, and the sunset is exactly two styles.

It's a pity that there are no such good birds to cooperate at night. A flock of birds flying in at sunset is definitely the finishing touch to this picture...... The key is that this group of birds was not added by Chen Xing in the later stage, and if someone zooms in on this picture in the future, they can vaguely and really see the appearance of the group of birds.

After waiting for the sunset, now Chen Xing is going 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 glowing ribbon in the sky.

Under normal circumstances, the human eye cannot see it, unless you are in a place like Western Xinjiang, Tibet. Other than that, you'll have to try your luck if you want to see the Milky Way.

Through time-lapse photography, the camera can capture light information that cannot be seen by the naked eye, and with the image sensor that comes with a good camera, it can depict the appearance of the Milky Way into the photo.

The sunset is the main meal, and now Chen Xing has eaten the main meal, and has stayed on this mountain for several hours for the sake of the starry sky for this dumpling.

Just after twelve o'clock, Chen Xing heard the sound of someone talking. After a while, the two monks came up with flashlights, and after seeing Chen Xing still sitting on this mountain, they exhaled neatly and said, "Little brother, you scared us, why didn't you come down the mountain so late?" Chen Xing pointed to the camera and said, "I'll shoot the starry sky, and I'll go down in two hours." "Twelve o'clock is not good, it has to be two o'clock to shoot.

The position of the Milky Way is not static in the sky, and a group of celestial bodies as large as people cannot be locked by the Earth like the Moon, so if you want the Milky Way to become a part of the composition in your work, you have to wait slowly.

There are a lot of star map software on your phone that can see the position of the Milky Way at a certain point in time. Chen Xing is a human star map, which automatically identifies the positions of the planets in the sky.

"Then we'll be relieved." Chen Xing said: "I'm sorry to make a few masters worried. He only cared about himself taking pictures and was comfortable, and he didn't think about this stubble.

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, he was more likely to be considered to have gone back directly, rather than 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 donor will stay in our temple at night, there is no hotel in the village outside us, and if you want to go out and find a place to stay, you have to walk for at least two hours, which is too far and unsafe." Chen Xing nodded and said, "Then I'll trouble you." The two monks didn't stay here to disturb Chen Xing, they didn't know how to take pictures, and there was nothing to talk about when they stayed, so they could go down the mountain in advance to arrange a room for Chen Xing.

Chen Xing was dozing off just now, but now after chatting with people for a while, he became energetic. The phone was almost out of battery, and Chen Xing didn't dare to continue playing.

The galaxy is finally in place. Chen Xing hurriedly took a picture. Due to the lack of other industrial light around, the night sky is particularly bright, and the stone wall Buddha statue in the photo also looks very bright due to the long exposure, and it is almost a work that can be produced without post-production.

[The stars are wide and the plains are wide, the moon is surging and the rivers are flowing, your persistence is not meaningless, the world is beautiful, she is worth your wait] [Your control over the wide-angle lens has increased] At first, I was shooting food, and then I gradually upgraded my ability to shoot portraits and buildings, and now the use of the wide-angle lens has also improved, is it that the control of landscape blockbusters has also improved?

While the Milky Way is 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 didn't think there was much difference between the two by looking at it himself, and it was estimated that it could only be reflected if it was enlarged, right?

So I didn't continue to study, and began to pack my things and go down the mountain. In his astronomer's experience, after another hour or two hours at most, it will definitely rain again.

This year, the drought continues in the whole south, but I didn't expect it to rain in Jiangxi for so many days, if you continue to do this, can you still see Poyang Lake in the dry season?

Don't wait for yourself to pass, the water level will rise again to the point where you can't go down and walk. It's better to go over and check it out sooner.

The grassland-like bottom of the lake really made Chen Xing's heart move. The temple is lit with lights, and at night, it can be seen from a long distance.

As we got closer, the familiar smell of burning became stronger and stronger. This temple was built in a huge cave, the whole is an oblique stone crack, when Chen Xing came down, there were monks chanting in the room of the 'Daxiong Treasure Hall', it is possible that he was waiting for Chen Xing.

Otherwise, the monks would have fallen asleep by this time. Someone approached, and the monk opened his eyes very vigilantly, and when he saw that it was Chen Xingcai, he said, "Donor, you have finally returned." ”

"I'm sorry."

"What do you do with an apology? Come, we cleaned up a room for you, it's a little simple, I don't know your habits of living. He took Chen Xing to a nearby hall, and after pushing open a wooden door, there was a very small room.

About four square meters. There was a bed, a table, and the walls of the cave were black, and it seemed that the local people had been using the cave for a long time, and it would take years of making fires in the cave to smoke the walls like this.

And there is also a light, which is still nice to stay here at night in the summer, at least it is cool inside the cave.

The monk went out for a while, and soon knocked on the door with a mosquito coil and said, "This incense is made by ourselves, and the effect of repelling mosquitoes is very good." The donor must be very tired from resting so late, so I won't bother you. ”

"It's okay, it's okay!" They were also too polite, and 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 precisely because of this indifference that people will feel a kind of warmth from the heart when they find a little kindness in society.

This warmth can be passed on. With Chen Xing's current treatment, if he encounters 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 that there was an outlet. The country has not said anything about infrastructure construction, maybe there are still many places in this society that are not connected to the Internet, but at least the electricity has been fully connected, and this temple built on the mountain is quite simple.

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

Take out your notebook. He couldn't sleep yet, at least until he finished the two pictures he had taken on the mountain.

The colors of Hasselblad's films are very good, and Chen Xing is not ready to move in terms of color grading. He wanted to use both of these photos to win awards, so he didn't have much to do with color grading and retouching, just a little bit of contrast between light and shadow in some dark areas.

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

Take it out for the exhibition first, and then someone buys it. Mr. Abbott only signed his own contract in Europe, so if anyone from other places wants to buy Chen Xing's work, they will still buy it on his website.

When he was done with all this, Chen Xing heard that it was raining outside. He pushed the door open and went out. The Buddha hall seems quiet in the middle of the night, and this kind of popular temple does not make people feel that eerie atmosphere.

Since there was no door 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 reach out to the rain. Leaning his head on the recliner, his phone playing music, holding it in his hand and placing it on his abdomen.

The young man listened to the rain song upstairs, and the red candles were dim. In the prime of life, listening to the rain in the passenger boat, the river is wide and the clouds are low, and the broken geese are called the west wind.

Now listening to the rain monk's house, the temples have stars. The joys and sorrows are always ruthless, one step ahead, bit by bit until dawn.

It's like the system said before. The world is beautiful, and the world is worth it. .................................... [You spent a night in the temple and got a cash yuan] Chen Xing saw such news as soon as he woke up.

This surprised him a little, isn't it possible that the houses of ethnic minorities can also be rewarded? Chen Xing hadn't completed this long-term task for a long time, and after opening the introduction and reading it, he realized that this task was to live in a building with a special inheritance, not a minority house that Chen Xing thought before.

Although the building of the Buddhist temple comes from Asan, it has also absorbed a lot of architectural characteristics of the Central Plains when it came to China, and of course it belongs to the building with a special heritage.

In this way, Taoism should also be possible? There are really few Taoists now, Chen Xing encountered many small temples on the way to travel, but Chen Xing really hasn't encountered one in Taoism.

To be honest, this phenomenon made Chen Xing dare not think about it. Taoism is the native religion of China, just because it can't collect money, is it so weak now?

If you think about it carefully, the decline of traditional Chinese culture is not only Taoism. With a sigh, Chen Xing got up.

In the Daxiong Treasure Hall next to it, the recitation is catchy, and it should be the monks doing morning classes. The Buddha hall outside Chen Xing was raining all night, or because of the temperature difference between day and night, or something, in short, some small water droplets condensed on the roof.

Living here for a long time must be very humid, Chen Xing thought to himself. At least the damp protection on the roof of the cave must be done, and the door must also be done, otherwise nothing in the house can be preserved for a long time.

The ancient architecture of China is amazing in this respect. As long as someone lives in it, no matter how damp the house is, no matter how bad the location is, he can always be stable.

But if no one lives in it for ten days and half a month, the dampness alone can make these pillars in the temple moldy.

And then there's the collapse. Feng Shui is also a science, and many of the things about evil have been explained by modern science.

There are some things that cannot be explained by science, and they cannot be said to be false. It can only be said that science has not yet reached that level.

Let science explain the acupuncture points of Chinese medicine in advance. I went out to see the great monks chanting, stretched my body a little, and then went back to the room to see if Seth had sent him a new email.

Although he is in China, he is still very concerned about his photography exhibitions. It's a pity that he finally has his own personal photography exhibition, but he has to constantly provide resources in China and can't go to visit.

Who's to say that they didn't take more pictures of this before? However, listening to Seth, after this period of photography exhibitions and the popularity that Abbott spent a lot of money to create 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 good he shoots, he will be congenitally shorter than those photographers in the West.

It's like an ancient singer singing a modern song, the technique is very good, but many listeners don't have such a high level of music appreciation, they can only think it is good.

And then on the other side is a professional pop singer, who also sings very well. The audience will subconsciously feel that pop singers are more professional.

On the contrary, when this singer sings an ancient work, they will also think that the song is good, and the singer is really professional.

Overall, the pros outweigh the cons. Because the current China is not the China of the past. When you went out on a trip a few years ago, you talked to people about Yanjing, and they didn't know what it was.

But now that they are traveling abroad, those foreigners don't talk about Yanjing, they still know Rongcheng and Jiangcheng.

There are also more and more foreigners who can speak Chinese. These are all precursors to the completion of the great cause of rejuvenation of the motherland. After tidying up the room and lifting his backpack, Chen Xing went out to say hello to a few monks who had finished their morning class, and then said, "Have you been so humid here?" ”

"Wet? Did the donor sleep badly last night? ”

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

"Oh, this doesn't affect it, it always has." The fat monk who was cooking said with a smile. Chen Xing looked around, and there didn't seem to be any red boxes for those big temples outside to collect money, so he asked, "Do you collect money for sesame oil here?" I'd like to donate some money to you to make something moisture-proof, and it would be nice to get a few more doors. The old monk said: "No need, it's not easy to make money outside now." He occasionally took his apprentices to nearby attractions to sell amulets, Buddhist beads or something, and the income was barely enough for the people in the temple, and there were no more, so he knew how difficult it was to make money.

But Chen Xing also insisted again and again. He originally wanted to donate 20,000 yuan, but for the sake of their kindness.

Let's donate all the money you earn from here. The money taken from the Buddha is also hot to spend by himself, so he simply sends it back from where it came from.

Tens of thousands of yuan Chen Xing didn't know if he could repair a door for them that could shelter them from the wind and rain, but at least he did his best.
