Middle age: leisurely life in the entertainment industry

Kulonnaoer Flower Sea Sightseeing Area has a sea of ​​​​10,000 acres of natural wetland flowers, with nearly a hundred kinds of natural flowers blooming. Although it is autumn and not as full of flowers as in spring, a touch of red under the blue sky and white clouds - Wolfsbane flower, embellishes the grassland in a beautiful golden autumn. Picture scroll.

The Wolfsbane flower blooms in June every year, and the flowers are yellow. From late August to early October, the Wolfsbane flower gradually turns fiery red. At this time, the white clouds of the Kulonnaoer flowers float, cattle and sheep are scattered leisurely on the grassland, and there are still flowers in the distance. There is a quietly flowing river that contrasts with the fiery red wolfsbane flowers.

Meili and Yu Tongtong put on various POSS in the sea of ​​flowers, and Yu Dongqing's camera kept taking pictures.

"Brother-in-law, let's go to the river to take pictures." Mingliang shouted.

Yu Dongqing nodded and walked forward along the path in the sea of ​​flowers. The sea of ​​flowers was replaced by yellowing grass. Perhaps this is not a place for tourists to check in. There are few pedestrians and it seems very quiet.

Meili took Yu Tongtong and set up a POS by the river, waiting for Yu Dongqing to take photos.

Yu Dongqing half-squatted to select the angle. In the lens, the grassland, the river, the gray sky unique to cloudy days, and the beauties one big and one small in bright clothes in the middle formed a unique kind of beauty.

After taking several photos in a row, Meiliang was about to leave, but found Yu Dongqing looking at the river in a daze with the camera.

"What's wrong, brother-in-law?

"Mingming, Tongtong, isn't your scenery beautiful?"

After saying that, Yu Dongqing squatted down, chose the angle, pointed at the river and took several pictures in succession.

Mingliang leaned over curiously, and saw a photo appear in the camera: a completely outlineless path, grass, river, and gray sky, forming an almost perfect horizontal structure.

"Good-looking? Why don't I feel it?" Meiliang was a little confused.

If it weren't for checking in, she wouldn't want to go to this ordinary-looking river.

"Have you noticed?" Yu Dongqing pointed to the photo and explained patiently: "Look, do the highlights of the river look completely parallel? Forming a perfect horizontal line with the road and grassland? Isn't it a kind of Platonic beauty?"

After listening to Yu Dongqing's explanation, Meimei took a closer look. Sure enough, it felt different from the ordinary scenery.

"Brother-in-law, your shooting vision is so unique!"

Yu Dongqing smiled slightly.

He said this because just now he suddenly discovered that the scene in front of him was very similar to one of the photography works "Rhein No. 2" taken by the famous German photographer in that time and space: Andreas Gursky.

The entire collection contains a total of six paintings depicting beautiful views of the Rhine. This work is the second and largest one among them.

The grass, river and gray sky form an almost perfect horizontal structure. The author used technical means to remove irrelevant elements such as factories and pedestrians that appeared in the picture.

And this painting, a photograph that was auctioned at Christie's in New York, was sold for a whopping $4.34 million!

Of course, some people in the photography industry have analyzed that the reason why this photo is so expensive is related to many factors. Such as the artistic status of the artist, the scarcity of the work itself, artificial hype and other factors.

The picture of the river by the flower seaside in Kulonnur taken by Yu Dongqing is just a simple imitation. He cannot compare with those photography masters based on his camera technology alone.

Just a temporary interest, just fun.

After Meili and her daughter Tongtong had enough fun, the three of them took the sightseeing train back to their accommodation. It was already noon.

When Ming Hanwen learned that his camera had been secretly taken away by his daughter, he blew his beard and glared angrily, but when Mingliang came back and hugged his shoulders with a smile, he suddenly lost his temper.

He really couldn't do anything with his precious daughter.

Yu Dongqing was busy going to arrange lunch, and Meiliang took out her camera excitedly: "Mom and Dad, look, these are the photos my brother-in-law took of me and Tongtong!" He looked at them one by one directly on the display screen.

Ming Hanwen looked at it carefully. Although they were ordinary landscape photos of people, he had to admit in his heart that whether it was the choice of shooting angle or the change of light and shadow, they were much better than his own.

Look, my daughter is more beautiful than the models in those blockbusters.

Of course my daughter is beautiful to begin with.

Suddenly, he was attracted by the last photo. It was different from the people photos just now. It was just a landscape photo without people.

There is nothing strange about the paths, rivers, grasslands, and gray sky.

"Meimei, this photo isn't very good. Delete it, it's a waste of space." Ming Hanwen said.

"No, no, my brother-in-law likes this photo very much and says it has a platonic beauty."

Plato and Ming Hanwen certainly know.

But he really couldn't see the Platonic beauty in this photo.

It's just a little ridiculous.

Forget it, since my daughter won’t let me delete it, just keep it.

After taking a short break after lunch, Yu Dongqing accompanied her daughter, mother-in-law and sister-in-law to watch the equestrian show. Ming Hanwen followed a group of old friends he had just met and went to take photos with great interest, carrying a camera.

I haven't gone out all morning and I feel itchy.

Today they mainly went to take pictures of the birds by the Swan Lake.

There are many birds around the lake. When the grass grows and the warblers fly, there are countless wild geese, gray cranes, and wild ducks.

When waterbirds rest here, it is like a paradise for birds, hence the name Cullen Swan Lake.

Although it is already autumn and some wild geese have begun to fly south, there are still many birds playing in the lake.

Ming Hanwen and the others found a good position on the shore, set up a tripod and started shooting.

Photographing birds is a technical job, and you also have to endure loneliness. You may have to wait for a long time for a good opportunity to press the shutter.

However, amateurs like Ming Hanwen are not so particular. When they see the birds they like, they will snap pictures of their graceful postures.

After they finished, several old men gathered together to watch each other's photos and share their experiences.

Ming Hanwen is a rookie in this area. Of course, he listens more to others than talks about himself, but he is still happy to share the photos he took.

The secretary-general of the Municipal Retired Cadres Photography Association, whose surname is Wu, is Wu Yuanchao. He respects Ming Hanwen, a retired professor of Yan University. He looked at the photos taken by Ming Hanwen's camera and helped him analyze the advantages and disadvantages of the photos one by one. Photography precautions.

"When photographing birds, there are three main exposure modes. If you want to control the aperture, that is, the depth of field, use aperture priority, such as this one. If you want to photograph birds flying in the sky, it is best to use shutter priority, like this."

Ming Hanwen nodded frequently.

As expected, he is a veteran in photography.

As Wu Yuanchao watched, he suddenly noticed that the photo in Ming Hanwen's camera changed, and a beautiful girl and a cute child appeared, posing various POSS in the sea of ​​flowers.

"This is the youngest daughter, and the little girl is the eldest daughter's child." Ming Hanwen quickly explained.

"Your girl is so beautiful." Wu Yuanchao praised it and suddenly felt something was wrong: "Old Ming, you didn't take this photo, right? The technique is completely different from what you just did."

"My eldest son-in-law took the photo." Ming Hanwen told the truth.

"It seems that your eldest son-in-law is also a master of photography." Wu Yuanchao sighed.

Apart from anything else, you can see that he is very proficient in the comprehensive use of aperture, shutter speed and ISO. Otherwise, he would not be able to take such colorful photos on a cloudy day like today. "

When he saw the last photo of the river, Wu Yuanchao stopped and let out a sigh.

"This photo is so weird."
