Features: What is referred to as the "36 Stratagems" is, in my view, a discussion of 36 issues related to photographic creation, not the 36 "strategies" commonly understood! The book begins by elaborating on the fundamental mindset of "photographic creativity," followed by discussions on innovation, refinement, and intuitive expression, with a flavor reminiscent of "encompassing the universe within form and subduing all things with the brush" (Lu Ji, Wen Bin). The writing style is lively and clear, reading like a leisurely stroll along the Xushanyin Road, with blossoming trees on both sides, captivating your attention until you reach the other end of Tianlan, arriving in a completely different realm. Written so profoundly yet simply, so richly diverse, and so effortlessly expressive, it truly showcases the author's mastery!
