Capturing the Aura of Spaces by Photographer Wei-ming Yuan
All of these photographs were shot en route, on a journey. For me, travel photography seeks out soulful resonance in an unfamiliar place. And so, the images captured are a result of a specific anticipation, and simultaneously, present a perpetual surprise. The presence of this sense of surprise indirectly attests to the unique experience of being physically present in the actual environment.
A scene first triggers visual interest, followed by observations that reveal a hidden life phenomenon within the scene. The elements that make up the scene begin to dialogue, until a relationship and context begins to emerge. Photography is the use of images to document the varied and manifold dramas that occur within a scene.
