Tranquility in the Wilderness: A German Astrophotographer’s Journey

TVB’s financial information channel has many good documentaries to watch. Today’s broadcast is about a German astronomy photographer who specializes in shooting time-lapse videos of the stars in remote mountainous areas. Sometimes he rents a snowmobile, and sometimes he Rent a helicopter and wait alone on the mountains at temperatures over ten degrees below zero, sparing no expense, just to take ideal photos.

This kind of work may seem lonely, but he said that he really enjoys the tranquility in the wilderness. He even compares the tranquility of different places. Similarly, in the deserted mountains and wild mountains, the degree of tranquility of each place will be different. People who have experienced this will understand.

Twelve years ago, I went to Yanzigou at the foot of Gongga Mountain in Sichuan several times in order to take photos of the sunrise at the top of Gongga Mountain. That scenery was called “Rizhao Jinshan”. There was only 2 weeks between the two times, because the weather was bad the first time and the fog covered the mountains. After 2 weeks, a local friend informed me that the weather had improved, so we flew there again.

At that time, the local expressway was not as developed as it is today. It took 7 or 8 hours to drive from Chengdu to Moses Town under Yanzigou. The winding mountain road on the way often collapsed. When a landslide occurred, the road was blocked and had to be cleared before it could be opened. , then I don’t know how long I have to wait.

After entering Yanzigou, we set up a tent and camped at an altitude of about 4,000 meters. In the evening, I sat alone on a big rock and looked at the snow-capped mountains to watch the colors of the sky change, with the white clouds gradually turning pink. The guide who accompanied me into the mountain and the horse driver were lighting a fire to cook in the mountain col. The smoke from the cooking pot floated in the wind, carrying the faint fragrance of Sichuan bacon and wild mushrooms. There was only the sound of the wind in my ears. The tranquility was so comfortable that it made people enchanted. , then you will know that being alone can be very romantic. Then night falls, and the new moon hangs in the sky like a bright light.
