Little Egret by the River. Blue, Black, White and Gold. Shing Mun River, Shatin, Hong Kong / SML.20130809.7D.49504.SQ

Sometimes nature creates the most beautiful paintings on its own, and I have to capture it.

 

The river reflected buildings from afar. The white little egret took a briefer by the pebbles. The sun hits the pebbles from behind. Everything poetry.

 

For me, photography is part memories but also a way to paint. It recorded a state of mind that I felt as I mindfully looked for beauty among what appeared to be a pile of dirty from afar.

 

It’s urban, but it’s also nature. Urbanism is simply a result of humans gathering together.
