Meili Snow Mountain

The sacred mountain in the locals' hearts.

Here we met the season's first snow. Before dawn, I ran out with a flash and made photographs whose shape I cannot name.

Perhaps only the wish to hold this moment, before it left.

The first day of the new year.

I saw the moon silver the peaks, and the dawn turn them to gold.

Pale moonlight, the rising sun, morning mist — all settling over this mountain.
