This series presents the tranquil scenery of rivers under moonlight through minimalist black-and-white imagery. The creative approach takes a reverse path, inverting the conventional minimalist composition of white backgrounds with black linear forms. With minimal elements set within a low-key tonal framework, the images concentrate on capturing the profound depth embodied by the sky, earth, and rivers in the nightscape—greatly expanding the imaginative space of the visuals and surpassing the visual allure typically found in conventional landscape photography.
