Huayan Temple | When you press the shutter, a thousand years of time softens in the morning light

The morning light at Huayan Temple is a warmth you can hold in your heart Just as I pushed open the temple gate, the first ray of light slanted across the temple wall—the mural painted with immortals and auspicious clouds has mellowed into warm brown tones over a thousand years, and even the robes of the immortals in the mural seem to be touched by the soft morning breeze. The morning light wraps her smile in a relaxed feeling of “just the right encounter.” To me, travel photography is never about “people checking in at a spot,” but about standing within history and becoming a gentle part of time. Lastly, a little secret: the mornings at Huayan Temple have few people and soft light, a treasure moment for great photos✨
