21st Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Gui Lin Park

This was taken by me in a garden/park in Shanghai. I think the autumn scenery shown in this picture especially the leaves, rocks, pools and ripples represent the Chinese aesthetic spirit. As an image, this painting is very symmetrical, whether it is the symmetry of the image form, the symmetry of the content of the pool water, or the symmetry of the color meaning, this painting is intriguing.
