The place shown in this picture is a bald mountain somewhere
in Jiangning, Nanjing, a unique landscape formed after years of quarry mining.
The mountain is full of rocks and slag, naturally there is no grass, and it has
the feeling of desolation in the desert.
When I arrived at Bald Mountain, it was dusk, and the
setting sun in the west put a touch of afterglow on the craggy rocks. The
mountain is uneven and undulating, so it creates a mixture of light and dark
light on it. The bright parts show a charming warm tone, while the shadow parts
deepen the sense of visual depth and appear very mysterious.
Although the entrance gate is posted with a notice to remind
visitors that the mountain is soft and prone to landslides. But still, it could
not stop the visitors from coming to the neighborhood to take photos and
sightseeing. I saw that the beautiful young female photographer was already
returning with a few people who were ready to call it a day. I thought am I too
late?
Bald Mountain is not very tall, so the visitors came to go
up and down easily. In order to achieve my desired effect, I was going to let
the sunlight act as a side light source in order to create a three-dimensional
effect, so I had to stand at a suitable vantage point for shooting. However,
because of the narrow space and the dense woods that obscured the light, I had
limited options. But thankfully, after a few tosses and turns (changing lenses
and camera positions), I was able to take a few pictures while the sun was
still setting.
