——Excerpt from the preface of the famous photographer Mr. Chen Jin for this book, "The Present is the Past"
One in the teahouse
In the Teahouse
The shutter never worked
Will my affection
Express one in ten million
What my photos imply is only a drop in the
bucket of what I really want to express.
This image appeared in my mind a thousand times
When the sun is in full bloom
Uncle drinking tea and chatting about punching shells
Stuffy dungeon sensibly
Passing through the whole world
The scene has flashed through my mind for a thousand times:
With the sunshine in full bloom,
the elders enjoy their tea and chew the fat,
the plump cat sauntering around with ease.
Nothing can stop it
Your yearning for good food
Nothing can subdue your appetite
for the yummy.
At the end of the curtain
Leave yourself alone
Loneliness came over him when the
curtain came down.
Forget it
Scatter it
Let it be
Drink a cup of tea
A Cup of Tea
The significance of the photo is
Many years later
It will eventually be discovered
Light composition that is concerned about weekdays
It's not that important
We just wanted to see
People and things at the time
And also
Indulge yourself in it
Photos serve as a reminder.
You attached importance to the light
and composition.
But many years later,
you will find that they do not count.
We just want to relive the past and look
back at ourselves then.
Rarely
They are in a brilliant stream
I don't know
They are oblivious of the gorgeous
sunlight they bathe in.
The light and shadow were intoxicating that day
The sun is like a spotlight
Illuminate the stage behind him
Face the boundless beauty
He bowed his head
Took a bite out of sanhua
The light and shadow were enchanting that day.
Like spotlights,
rays of sunshine illuminated the
stage behind him.
Against the backdrop of the fine view,
he lowered his head,
sipping at his aromatic tea.
Rainy days, eating tea, gossiping
A chat over tea on a rainy day
It turned out that they were talking about the north and the south
Later, they came from the north of the earth and the south of the earth
Previously, they chatted about the distant places.
Later, they are separate far apart.
Three gave birth to many tea things
Anecdotes of the Regulars
No one came in the spring
Someone goes in the fall
Someone has gone in Autumn
Nobody comes in spring
The summer is receding
We grew acquainted
There are not many tea customers
He danced and sang
"The Girl of Alishan"
Autumn 2015
The third year of the old seven teahouses
High summer elapsing,
we became familiar with each other.
With few patrons,
he improvised a performance Maidens from Ali Mountain, arms pumping.
It was the autumn of 2015 when
Laoqi (Mr.Seven) had served here for 3 years.
Hello strangers
Hi! new comer
"What would you like to do if you could do it all over again"
"I want to be with you, point to the end"
“What would you do if you could turn the
clock back?”
“I would keep our relationship
in incipience.”
It turned out that he paid tribute to the whole youth
Later, he dreamed of all the teenagers
He was nostalgic for his prime.
He dreamt of his salad days.
Those we naively thought
Something that never ends
We had innocently believed good things would
stay forever.
