Photographer

Long shutter speed is really an interesting element of the camera.It brings a lot of possibilities to photos.When I helped my friend to do the light project,  we had an idea.Let two camera faced each other's lens and let one camera zoomed during the other camera's shooting process.The final effect looks good but still can be improved. Then luckily I saw Jakob Wagner's Urban zoom series, the idea in this series resembles our idea.But Urban Zoom is let the shooting camera itself zooms during the shooting.And the item is the city scenes.The result in the photos is the lights lines are vey impressive and powerful. It's also depends on the camera's big zooming scope.

All these pictures are screenshot from Kaldeway's 500px website. In some of his works he tries to create interesting narrative in the subject.He will use many creative ideas to compose those articles in the pictures.Some of his works are just about some simple articles in a little bit special shooting techniques to bring some basic emotions to us.Weak in narrative is a trait of still life photography.The important part is the framing of lines, planes and spaces.Light and colour are
