What does Jiang Xiaodong play?

Jiang Xiaodong, Hunan Province is a holy place for photographers. When the morning fog in Xiaodong began to cover the Dongjiang Lake, the sun shone on the water through the mist, and the early fisherman rowed the boat and spread his fishing net on the river. All these are ordinary pictures, but in the photographer's lens, this is a beautiful picture. It is these beautiful photos that promote the Jiang Xiaodong River and make it more well known.

Jiang Xiaodong is located in Dongjiang Lake, Zixing County, Chenzhou City, Hunan Province. There is a narrow and winding river between the two hydropower stations in the lake. Compared with the upper reaches of the Dongjiang Lake, it is exquisite and compact, so the locals call it Jiang Xiaodong River. The small Dongjiang River, which was originally fresh and beautiful, is not famous. Later, a reporter found that the Xiaodongjiang River was smoky and unpredictable, just like a fairyland. Therefore, it has the reputation of "Little Dongjiang River in Fog City". Many photos about Jiang Xiaodong won prizes in the competition. Since then, the foggy Jiang Xiaodong has become famous all over the world, attracting photographers from all over the world.

The fog in Jiang Xiaodong River is formed by the "temperature difference effect". The height of Dongjiang Dam is157m. Jiang Xiaodong River flows out from the dam bottom, and the water temperature is kept at 8-65,438+00℃ all the year round, while the water surface temperature of Jiang Xiaodong River is around 20℃. There is a temperature difference between the water surface and the bottom. Water is hot in the morning and cold at night, forming a layer of water mist. Every May-10, whenever the sun rises or sets, the whole Xiaodongjiang River is misty and hazy, as if it had entered a fairyland. From June to September, 5-9 am is the best time to enjoy fog and shoot.

? From downstream to upstream, Jiang Xiaodong River has 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 bridges in turn, and the best scenic spot is the "fog-watching plank road" between Bridge 2 and Bridge 3. No matter how early you arrive, you can see the photographer waiting here with a tripod, just to take the most beautiful fog!

The Dongjiang Lake that I saw when I first entered the scenic spot was just beautiful and had no special feeling. Further on, you will see a hydropower station, which seems to be the hairpin of the Queen Mother, separating heaven and earth. Only when we cross this line can the scenery in front of us be charming. The cool river is filled with layers of mist. With the graceful posture of the swaying airflow, the mountains are looming. If it weren't for the click, it would really be like being in a fairyland. The sun rises slowly, and the morning sunlight passes through the hills and hits the fog, forming a soft beam, which is reflected on the water and sparkling.

Not far away, there is a boat hidden in the fog, and a fisherman is standing at the bow. The fishermen here are not real fishermen, but scenic spot staff for tourists to take pictures. Don't look at them. They're just casting nets. This is a technical job. No matter whether it is light or heavy, high or low, the posture will affect the aesthetic feeling of the photo, so it is professionally trained. I saw the fishing boat echoing on the foggy river, and the photographer's heart moved with it. Everyone was expecting to cast a net, and the ship stopped in the middle of the river. The fisherman stood firmly at the bow, leaned forward, raised his hand and skillfully threw out the fishing net. Then, the huge net suddenly opened and jumped on a river. At this time, the sun just emerged from the mountains, sprinkled on the boat and shone on the fisherman. With the click of the shutter in my ear, it seems like a lifetime ago.
