人像5贴士

每日一瞥——背篓女孩儿

这种“冷门”地点是绝佳的摄影选择，当地人对西方来的摄影师都很友善。多数情况都饶有兴致地看着我们并报以微笑，对于相机所投以的关注也很受用。

微笑人像我拍得不多，我比较喜欢捕捉人们发现之前或之时的那些瞬间。不过咧，每拍一阵子，我都会来几下面部运动，这样大家都能放松点。

每日一瞥——深入林雾

顺流而下，已经出城许多公里。我下了小船，进山中林间徒步。林子十分茂密。即使偶有地方稍显开阔，依然是叶密藤深，压迫感十足。偶尔会有些许大一点的缝隙，可以窥视前方的深密。

Daily Photo – The Li River

Now, getting to this place was not easy!

I arrived about 1 AM at a tiny family-run inn by the river. I was meeting a local guide (see Jack’s website) at 5 AM, so I didn’t get a lot of what I would call “quality sleep”. Anyway, I got up very early and went downstairs in pitch black. There seemed to be a big white cloth box I had to go around to find the front door. My guide was outside. The door was locked and we could not figure out how to get it open. Everyone at the little inn was sound asleep and I was totally confused. Then, from inside the big white box, a body flew out of it! There was a 60-year-old Chinese guy inside that was sleeping until I woke him up with all my lock-manipulations. His naked limbs in the white sheets scared the bejeezus out of me and woke me right up!

And then we were on the river about 5:15. It was still completely dark outside. And I mean COMPLETELY DARK. It was a thin bamboo raft with an outboard motor.

I turned around to ask my guide, “How the heck does the boat driver know where he is going?!?”

He calmly said, “Oh, no worry. The river is very wide.”

I not-calmly said, “Well, that’s great and everything, but I can’t even see the edge to the river!”

He calmly said, “But it is so wide.”

This line of questioning was not getting me anywhere, so I just decided to sit back and enjoy my possible last moments on Earth. Then the sun started to rise, and we moved the boat over to the best bank for the angle.

Want to hear something amazing about these fishermen? You won’t believe it… but maybe others can confirm this! The fishermen use these two trained cormorant birds that have their throats tied. The birds dive into the water, eat a fish, but then can’t swallow it because of the rope. The fisherman rudely pulls the fish from the bird’s throat and drops it into that basket behind him. The bird then goes over to a tiny keyboard and sends out the tweet, “WTF”.
