"Time, the head station is at the photographer."

I remember around Christmas in 2018, I met Saul Leiter's photography collection "Early Color" in the bookstore. Originally planned to read it back to the bookshelf, but I did not expect it to become the most commonly investigated publication in the future.

In the 1940s and 1950s of black and white images, the initial appearance of New York was under the lens of Saul Leiter, and a quiet but warm atmosphere flowed, covering the snowy winter without any disagreement; Saul Leiter has consistent color sensitivity to sensitivity Degree, the work of the work is brewing and damage, and the key objects are faintly paved, such as red umbrellas, taxis and mirror reflection fuzzy passers -by, and engraved the visual style of the early Impressionism.

Born in the United States, he dream of becoming a painter when he was a child, but with the traction and encouragement of his friends, he opened his photography career. In the next life, he dedicated it for more than 20 years. The fun of the impression on the street.

Saul Leiter is good at covering the main body with a hazy contour, paying attention to the accuracy of the composition, using the transformation of the far and near focal length, cutting the screen to analyze the theme, and carefully look at the image of each perspective superimposed. Watch the camera lens to seal the time.

A good thing about photography is that it teaches you how to see and teach you to appreciate things.

Pass your feelings through the photos, and every clip of life and multi -dimensional space is full of emotions. Leiter takes a camera to walk and feel the flow of time. He has a natural personality that meets the encounter of each surprise. Art and aesthetics have become part of his life.

Since 1997, Saul Leiter successively exhibited photographs in Europe and the United States. In 2006, he also published the first photography collection "Early Color". The mirror, snowy afternoon, psychedelic lens language, hundreds of negative films are worthy of repeated taste, no wonder that Leiter would say that year: time, always standing on the photographer.
