In Search of the Whooping Crane
The first time I knew the name of Whooping Crane was from a Facebook post. From then I have done some searching on internet. Whooping cranes are incredible birds that capture the attention of bird watchers and nature lovers everywhere. With their stunning white feathers and distinctive calls, these cranes are not just a beautiful part of North America's wildlife but also symbols of conservation success. Whooping cranes (Grus americana) stand out as the tallest birds in North

African Safari Tour (非洲之旅)
(Note: please click the above photo for the trip video.) Ever since I became fascinated with photography, it has become my dream to go to Africa to photograph wild animals and birds. Last year, when my friend was organizing a tour group and asked me to join, I signed up without hesitation. 自从迷上了摄影,去非洲拍摄野生动物和鸟类便成了我的一个梦想。去年朋友在组团,问到我时,便毫不犹豫的报了名。 Our trip to Africa finally took place in October this year. We visited four national parks in Zimbabwe, Zambia, and Botswana. During th

Catching The Motions
When photographing dance recitals, I take a large number of images for the schools, capturing each dancer’s movement as cleanly as possible. Because these photos are often used by the schools, dancers, and parents on social media, it’s essential to freeze every moment sharply. To achieve that level of clarity, I use a minimum shutter speed of 1/200s , which helps ensure crisp, usable images even during fast choreography. Another style of dance photography focuses on capturing

The Fall Color of Colorado
科罗拉多的秋色 九月初,偶然间看到一篇推荐观赏秋景之地的文章,克罗拉多的秋色立即把我深深吸引。马上上网查机票, 发现九月或十月飞往Denver的机票又很便宜,于是联系在Denver的朋友,得到建议,确定九月的最后一个周末前往。 每年九月中旬开始,Denver附近山上的Aspen Tree(白杨树)的树叶开始变黄,漫山遍野的金黄色令人赏心悦目。即将启程的前一天,朋友打来电话,今年九月Denver的天气非常好,没有风,没有雨,我们应该赶上一个欣赏Denver秋色的最佳时刻。 1. 期待的时刻到了,起个大早,乘坐从Houston出发的第一班飞机前往Denver。Denver附近的山区海拔近一万英尺,考虑到这个高度对我们是个挑战,所以决定第一日只在海拔五千英尺的Denver活动,有个逐渐适应的过程。 首先参观的是 Garden of the Gods。 走在山间小道,微风轻拂,感叹大自然的鬼斧神工。 看到攀岩者,不禁感叹挑战者的勇气。 到访 U.S. Air Force Academy, 观看了学生学习训练的365天纪录影片。 2. 第二日,从Denve

Finding Birds Through the Lens
(Updated on Jan 30, 2026) (American Flamingo and Scarlet Ibis in Caroni Bird Sanctuary, Trinidad) I picked up photography in 2017 as something to fill the quiet spaces of my spare time. I didn’t realize then that it would slowly reshape the way I move through the world. Birds, in particular, found their way into my frame—and into my attention—almost effortlessly. Now, wherever I go, I find myself looking up and listening. Trees, shorelines, open fields, city corners—anywhere

月与月食
拍摄月亮似乎是一件容易的事,只要有一台适当的相机和一个变焦镜头就可以了。 多年前,每当看到一轮明月与城市标志建筑或自然美景融合一起,都会被深深震撼或感动。然而,当我开始尝试拍摄同样题材时,发现无论如何都无法将前景与大大的月亮同时拍到一张片子里。于是得出结论,月亮都是后期用软...
