Although there is no wonderful light and color, the quality of the cell phone shots are quite impressive. It was shot in daylight without obvious over-exposure and reflection, but it would be better if the character took up a smaller portion of the shot. 50

However, the pre- and post-photography skills could be further developed – the sky has a large area of overexposure. Additionally, the ability to control light and shadow in post-processing could use work. 51

Cary Chu 静物摄影 STILL LIFE 编辑导言 Editor’s Words -朱健雄 拍摄一些无生命物体的照片，称为静物摄影。 静物摄影可以细分为许多不同的类别，如桌面、食 品、产品等等。静物摄影的吸引力在于你可以在一 个非常小的可控空间内尝试构图、照明、主题、景 深和无限的创造力。 While still life photography may seem to be simple on the surface, the study of inanimate objects can be subdivided into many different categories – tabletop, food, products, and so on. The attraction of still life photography is that you can freely experiment with factors such as composition, lighting, subject, and depth of field, giving photographers unlimited creativity in a small, controllable space.

STILL LIFE 编辑评语: 在静物摄影中，照亮反光 的物体是困难的。这张照片的照明很 好。它均匀地盖住了，没有过度曝光 的问题。色温很好。布局很好。唯一 需要注意的是背景。部分背景有很多 噪音。我建议使用背光灯，把物体和 背景分开。 Editor’s Comments: In still photography, it is difficult to properly light shiny and reflective objects, but the lighting here is even with no hot spots. The color temperature and layout are solid as well. The only thing that needs more attention is the background; there’s a lot of noise in part of the background, which could be helped by use of a back light to separate the object from the background.

In still light photography, we mostly use side light & back side light method; the side light creates a shadow, which creates a three-dimensional image. This photo has a simple natural side light layout. The layers of the flower are obvious, but despite the use of a larger aperture to blur the background and make the flower pop, there are many bright spots that distract the viewer from the subject. I would prefer to darken the background and lighten the flowers to increase the contrast. 74

Each street photo opportunity is like its own miniature journey —you can feel the poetic moments of the world revolving around you. The artistic charm of street photography rests on the capture of fleeting randomness and uncertainty. It is an impromptu creation, a unique combination of light, shadow, color, objects, and people under one's own feelings and emotions. 75
STREET 编辑点评：小女孩的眼神，以及集 中在中心女孩身上的灯光，瞬间衬 托出天真无邪的美。口罩确实揭示 了大流行的环境，因此带来了阴影 的悲伤。与其说是街拍，不如说更 像是人像，小孩子的题材很受欢迎， 可能缺乏新奇的方案，但谁能拒绝 一双美丽无辜的眼睛。 Editor’s Comments: The eyes of the middle girl, as well as the lighting centered on her, immediately brings out the beauty of innocence – but not without a shade of sadness, as the mask reminds the viewer of the pandemic. It is more like a portrait than a street photo, and the subject of little kids may lack novelty – but who can resist a pair of innocent eyes like that?

The color balance is well done – the low light of dusk creates a rich color, which allows for some detailing on the sky and the beach. The reflection of the beach adds a dreamy oil painting feeling, which naturally connects with the “follow the heart” theme of the photo. It is not strictly speaking a street photo, but nevertheless captures the spontaneity of street photos with a human element. 77

Eurasian hoopoe is a strange species; its nest is typically filled with feces from its chicks. During the hatching season an oily, foul-smelling dark brown substance is secreted from their glands, which is used to repel predators and protect the young birds. Eurasian hoopoes are poor nesters and typically chose tree holes and caves, even stealing the nests of woodpeckers on occasion! Because the Eurasian hoopoes make the nests smell terrible, the woodpeckers give up on reclaiming their nests, leaving their possession to the hoopoes. 81

The most attractive thing about it is that during breeding, its back feathers have white markings, marking their beautiful breeding feathers. Divers are also good at fishing and can dive to a depth of 60 meters in search of food.

Taking the same routes north their ancestors once did, birds migrate to places where they know sufficient food and water to be so they can safely breed. North American snow geese have three primary migration routes – Pennsylvania being one of them – and the lake in Middle Creek is the last stop for these snow geese, recharging for two or three weeks before finishing their route north. This photographer took advantage of the beautiful morning light to capture this stunning image. 87

Traditionally, the osprey father is responsible for fishing while the osprey mother takes care of feeding. This osprey family watched the father’s return in unison! This wonderful moment is typically difficult to capture, but this photographer’s pre-shooting and post-production work make it look easy.

WILD LIFE AS LIGHT AS A FEATHER by Mei Zhang Canon 5D4 编辑评语：摄影师在低光的情况下， Canon EF 100-400mm 运用了慢门的手法，把白鹭拍出了 洁白朦胧的羽毛，神秘而缥缈，柔 Aperture f18 和而绮丽。 Shutter Speed 1/25s 拍生态的时候，建议在光线不足的 情况下，尝试拍摄慢门。 ISO 100 Post Processing Software 慢门的速度没有一个定数，主要是 根据想要的来确定，一般把快门速 Lightroom 度控制在1/30秒- 1/125秒之间。 光位十分重要的，顺光色彩细腻柔 顺，逆光更显通透和立体。 慢门拍鸟的最高境界：清晰的头部 与虚化的翅膀，虚实对比。 Editor’s Comments: In low light, this photographer used the slow shutter technique to shoot the egret’s hazy white feathers, making the bird look almost ethereal in its beauty. When shooting in nature, it’s recommended to try shooting slowly in case there’s insufficient light. There is no fixed number for this – rather, it should generally be controlled between 1/30 seconds and 1/125 seconds. The position of the light is crucial here – the color is delicate and smooth, while the backlight is transparent and three-dimensional. This is the peak of slow-shutter photography: a clear head and blurred wings, creating a strong contrast. 89
WILD LIFE 编辑评语：蜂鸟是世界上体型最 小的鸟，羽毛闪耀着金属光泽。 能夠以快速拍打翅膀的方式而懸 停在空中，也是唯一可以向后飞 的鸟，蜂鸟飞行的速度是时速90 公里，如果是俯冲的话，时速可 以达到100公里。 Editor’s Comments: Hummingbirds are the smallest bird in the world, with their feathers shining almost metallically in the air. Capable of hovering with their rapid flapping and also being the only bird that can fly backwards, hummingbirds fly at a speed of 90 kilometers per hour and can go up to 100 kilometers per hour if they are swooping.

WILD LIFE HOODED ORIOLE By Xing Ning Zhao 编辑评语：摄影师利用了黃鸝鸟的 色泽与花朵的碰撞点缀了整个画面， 鸟儿的眼神光更是一个重点。如果 后期把花朵的高光压暗一点效果会 更好。 Editor’s Comments: The photographer used the color of the bird and the collision of flowers to enhance the photo, with the light of the bird’s eye being a key point. However, it may have been enhanced if the highlights of the flowers were darker. Nikon D 850 500 mm Aperture f/5.6 Shutter Speed 1/1600 ISO 500 91

While I was preparing the shot, one tern flew low to look for her partner, with the other waiting for his return, and I eventually captured the warm embrace of the terns with high- speed continuous shots. The post- production uses the black corner blur treatment method to give the photo a dreamy aura. 93
WILD LIFE 编辑评语：夜鹭通常喜欢于晨、昏和 夜间觅食，而且喜欢結小群，白天隐 藏于僻靜处，或分散棲息在僻靜的山 坡、水库或湖中小岛上的灌木林或高 大树木的枝叶中。 摄 影 师 利 用 了 3200 的 速 度 定 格 了 这 凌 空互动的精彩瞬间，追焦快而准抓拍 到这清晰的画面，后期处理的光暗也 到位。构图方面，顶部有点压迫感， 如果多留一点空间，整个画面会更好 看。 Editor’s Comments: Night herons usually forage in the morning, dusk, and night, and prefer to do so in small groups. They hide in secluded places during the day, scattered in the hillsides, reservoirs, islands, and branches of tall trees. This photographer used a shutter speed of 1/3200 to capture this wonderful interaction, and captured the photo with a strong and accurate focus. In terms of composition, while the light & dark created in post-processing is noticeable, but the spacing at the top is a little oppressive – leaving some more space would enhance the photo. 求爱 COURTSHIP By Mei Hu SONY ILCE-1 SONY FE24-70 F2.8 GM 两只夜鹰在芦苇丛上追逐$ Two nighthawks chase each other over the reeds.

The success rate of slow shutter speed shots is often very low, but if you continue to work at it, you will inevitably get a great shot. 粉 红 琵 鹭 PINK SPOONBILLS By Mei Hu SONY ILCE-1 SONY FE200-600 粉 红 琵 鹭 (ROSEATE SPOONBILL)，因 其 粉 红 的 羽 毛 ， 扁 扁 的 嘴 巴 ， 有 点 像 中 Aperture F13 国乐器中的琵琶，故而得名粉红琵鹭。它好斗，为地盘之争在树丛中窜上窜 Shutter Speed 1/80 下 打 闹 。 这 张 照 片 拍 摄 于 美 国 德州 High Island, Smith Oaks Sanctuary， 它 距 离 ISO 100 休斯顿市中心大约一个多小时的车程。那里鸟类主要有粉红琵鹭、大白鹭、 EV -1 牛背鹭、雪鹭。每年的二月中下旬至五月底是德州高岛拍鸟季节，建议喜欢 Because of its pink feathers and flattened mouth, the pink spoonbill resembles the pipa in Chinese musical instruments.

These egrets are covered with white feathers, crown feathers on their heads, long yellow legs, and black beaks. Snow herons work in day and dusk, feeding on aquatic species like fish, shrimp, frogs, and insects, and can often be seen standing on the edge of the water or in shallow water waiting for prey to snatch up. This photographer used continuous shooting to freeze the wonderful moment of flight, and mastered the appropriate exposure so as to not overexpose the snow- white feathers. 97
