The soft light of early morning or evening makes the outlines of leaves and the textures of mountains clearer, illuminating peaks and forests to create beautiful light and shadow effects, adding movement, space, and layers to photos. 【Composition techniques】 He uses symmetrical composition (lake reflections), S-shaped composition (roads, lake shapes), foreground composition (leaves, flowers), size contrast composition (people, cars, and mountains), rule of thirds composition, and central composition. He likes to use leaves/flowers in the foreground, lakes in the middle ground, and mountains in the background to create a vibrant and atmospheric landscape photo that draws the viewer in. 【Color matching】 He uses rich colors, especially liking to use the golden yellow of leaves, the green of coniferous forests, the blue of lakes and skies, and the gray and white of mountains to create a contrast between warm and cool colors, creating a strong visual impact. Warm tones have high saturation, while cool tones have medium to low saturation, creating a distinct visual hierarchy. 【Emotional expression】 His photos have an overall oil painting-like texture, with unique use of light and shadow, and are intense and full of life, while also being creative and artistic, and conveying a sense of peace and tranquility.
