My hometown is a typical northeastern city in China -- factories, coal mines, aging. And what I've documented here is what I've seen of it, mostly views located within my neighborhood.

Gulangyu Island
I avoided all the stores on the Gulangyu island and rushed straight to the beach, feeling the blowing sea breeze on the rocks. It had been so long since I saw the sea for the first time.

Hulunbuir
Only will you realize how precious a place is after you've traveled to many cities.
The overall impression is that the sky is very blue, the grassland is very wide, and the starry sky is vary stunning. As well as don't forget to be prepared for the sun.

Tokyo, Niigata, Osaka
When I came to Japan for a week, my biggest impression was that it was "very clean, except for Akihabara in Tokyo and Shinsaibashi in Osaka". After arriving here, some of these stereotypes were shattered - the Shinkansen can be a few hours late, and the streets of Tokyo can be littered with garbage.
Updating
Linköping
This is where my new life begins. Linköping has a very beautiful Chinese translation as ”林雪平“ (the pronunciation, which means "Woods, Snow, and Peace".
Stockholm is a very walkable city for sightseeing. You can find a lot of surprises here, such as pigeons, the Old Town, and the Kiki's House.
One 140 kronor round-trip ferry ticket between Stockholm and Helsinki
Cold air, brick roads and streetcars.
Helsinki can represent an imaginary Nordic city - chill and elegant.

Porto, Lisboa, Faro
Step into Portugal and head south. Cloudy and warm winters, old towns, countless monuments and museums. Everything seems to imply that this place was once so glorious, and today people are still romantic.

Gothenburg , Lund, Malmö, Copenhagen
A short train trip. Still traveling south, arriving in Copenhagen for a 29th birthday.
Firenze
May, 2025
“There are two places I must visit once in my life”, I have told this to more than one person. One of those places is Florence, and the other I've forgotten.

Istanbul & Cappadocia
Religion and Secularism. Conservative and Liberal. Wealth and Poverty. Consumption and Moderation.

Malaga
Sunshine, beaches, Picasso's birthplace, a paradise for me fleeing the long Nordic nights.
Canals, bicycles, tulips, weeds, red-light district. Amsterdam by day and Amsterdam by night are completely different.
Breathtaking architecture.

Paris
Paris is not only about art, fashion, and elegance; it is also about hardship, exhaustion, and haste.
Earlier Collections
Many a mickle makes a muckle.
To the Moon
Since 2020
My job is related to astronomy and sometimes looking at the moon is part of it.
Deepsky
Since 2020
Differs from nightsky photography, DSO photography targets nebulae and galaxies at greater "depths" .
Attempt at Films
March, 2022
They are slightly yellowed, which is caused by the monochrome film being recaptured by digital camera.
