Paper cutting is an art in Chinese culture. I was attracted by the environment and setting when I came across the scene at the hutong area in Beijing. For this occasion, is just during the 60th national day celebration of China. The store keeper was obviously bored when there was no buyer at his store.
My perception of colours and pattern always are my initial concept of capturing an image. The lighted bridge and the colourful reflections in the water are eye catching for me. From a vantage angle, I captured the image during my visit to the Wu Tong area in Beijing, in 2009.
In 2015, we were very fortunate to witness the scene and enjoyed the beauty of nature while photographing in the Xiangshan Park, Beijing. Further more. I was attracted by the beautiful pattern and colour of pebbles obviously paved by the designer of the park. The melted first snow during that time, further enhanced the colour saturation of pebbles along the path. My concept was to capture the perception of this colourful object. The final result is a vibrant image of pattern and colour. Special thanks should go to the council of the 中国华侨摄影学会 for inviting us to participate in this lovely event.
