"A year ago in Bipenggou, the autumn wind turned the fir trees across the mountains red. I witnessed the slowest sunset, the sound of the mountain wind carrying the rustling of pines—a memory that lingered for a whole year. This year, returning to Western Sichuan, the autumn forests of Bipenggou were still as lush and picturesque as ever. The exclusive travel photography session at the Mushan Hotel was the most unexpected surprise—it turns out that staying amidst scenery allows you to capture both the landscape and the passing time in your photos.
They understand the connection between Mushan and Bipenggou so well: they'll guide you to frame the scene from the golden leaves in the hotel courtyard, allowing the staggered eaves to blend with the distant snow-capped mountains; they'll wait for the afternoon sun to slant into the hotel's viewing corridor, using light and shadow to create a sense of depth between people and the autumn forest, even capturing the subtle detail of your hair brushing against the railing as you lean against it. The photographer was unhurried and relaxed throughout, smiling and saying, ”Just enjoy the scenery, I'll capture the moments.” Any initial nervousness about the camera was completely dissolved by this relaxed atmosphere.
When I got tired of shooting, I would rest by the fireplace in the hotel lobby, sipping the hot tea provided by the hotel, and listening to the hotel photographer talk about the secrets to framing shots of Mushan in all four seasons. They discussed everything from composition in the lens to the small animals they encountered in the mountains behind the hotel that morning. The initial sense of unfamiliarity slowly dissipated in the fireplace's glow.
I loved every scene captured in the photos: the snow-capped mountains and autumn forests outside the hotel terrace, the gentle smiles in the light and shadow of the corridor, the relaxed feeling of holding a teacup by the fireplace; and I especially loved the tranquility hidden within the travel photography—from the small scenes in the hotel to the mountain views, from the framed shots to the casual conversations at the tea table, every second was imbued with the warmth of Mushan and the autumn charm of Bipenggou. Next time I come, I'll have them capture Mushan's winter snow and spring tea, adding them all to my memories."
