Lake sees, its that simple, trouble is few others do and I can see him head banging, but with a stiff upper lip and carrying on. He realizes the power of photography and how important it is for people to see the mystery instead of the description of the world. Almost all see only the description which eliminates them from ever getting a glimpse of the world as it is: “If the doors of perception were cleansed everything would appear to man as it is, Infinite. For man has closed himself up, till he sees all things thro' narrow chinks of his cavern.” ― William Blake Richard Avedon said: all photographs are accurate, none of them is the truth. But knowing this doesn't takeaway their power to move and enlighten, and that 's what Lake has the gift of doing.

Seeing through Lake's eyes is like seeing the world through crystal.

Lake’s photos are at once foreign and intimate. They are full of unanswered questions, intangibles and possibilities. To see them for the first time is to be confused, then a second look reveals the beauty and a third the meaning. Lake sees the subtle wrinkles in reality and photographs them for us to share.

To see them for the first time is to be confused, then a second look reveals the beauty and a third the meaning. Lake sees the subtle wrinkles in reality and photographs them for us to share. The truth is there in his pictures, we just have to look long enough to find it.

It always pays to take a long look at Lake Li Sun's shots. He sees things differently than most. He has an eye. I always have things to learn from his work!

I'm long overdue on writing something about my friend Lake. He has an amazing talent for catching life's surprising moments with gentleness and humor. Whether I'm hungry for a visual feast or food for thought, I know I won't be disappointed when I dine at Lake's place!

Lake Li Sun seems to be the kind of guy who walks for miles with sensory organs on high alert to the world passing by. Lake's photographs represent a reality that is overlooked by most and studied in depth by even less.

Lake Li Sun ha catturato la mia attenzione con la semplicità delle sue foto. Il suo photostream è vario, multicolore ed originale. Alcune delle sue foto sono quasi surreali da sembrare ritoccate, ma non lo sono, altre hanno una purezza compositiva così semplice eppur comunicativa e le sue macro mi hanno mostrato dettagli della natura che non avevo mai notato prima. Lake Li Sun grabbed my attention using the simplicity in his photos. His photostream is various, varicolored and original. Some photos can appear almost surreal, as they seem retouched but they are not, other photos have cleanness in composition as simply as communicative, and his macro showed me nature details I’ve never seen before.

Lake Li Sun shares his 'exploded' vision of the world, full of colourful and interconnected dimensions. His macro shots are the only ones I can recall ever seeing that feels as if they are result of a particular way of experiencing detail, and not just a cold record of the same. Prepare to be amazed.

Facing the reality, zooming in on the nearly undetectable, discovering and rediscovering the secrets of how to get a unique world to fit into the viewfinder and then sharing it with stories and words just as unique….. that is Lake Li Sun’s photo stream. His cameras are an extension of his eyes seeing beauty, color and light everywhere and capturing it with more passion than you will find anywhere. One could compile a long list about what is good about Lake’s stream and his photographic genius. But simply put: He photographs with his whole soul and heart and the results are phenomenal.

Lake has the gift of seeing and capturing what takes place at the intersection of art & the physical world.

Lake has the gift of seeing and capturing what takes place at the intersection of art & the physical world. As is the case with a great many of his photos, the line where art ends and nature begins is beautifully, brilliantly blurred. Most importantly, Lake's images appear to defy the quantum physical principal that the device one uses for observation pollutes the results. His camera seems to be woven directly into the fiber of the natural world.
