DL is a photographer with a deep appreciation for the tools of the craft—his work spans the tactile charm of film, the versatility of digital, and formats ranging from Micro Four Thirds to Medium Format. For him, the gear is a means to an artistic end.
Whether traveling or simply wandering nearby streets, he photographs what he sees and feels. With a quiet attentiveness, he captures scenes and subjects that catch his eye and stir something deeper. Later, drawing on his background in software and image processing, he transforms those captured moments into finished photographs—images that strive to reflect not just what was in front of the lens, but what was in his heart.
Still, he’s the first to admit that technique doesn’t always keep pace with intention. A photograph alone, he finds, doesn’t always convey the full depth of the feeling behind it. That’s where this blog comes in. Here, images are paired with words—together offering a fuller, more honest expression of what moved him to press the shutter.
Occasionally, his work takes on a documentary quality, especially when beauty and emotion are already present in the scene, waiting to be witnessed and shared.

DL是一位对摄影器材怀有深厚热情的摄影师——他的创作横跨胶片温润的质感与数字影像的锐利，从M4/3系统到中画幅。于他而言，器材始终是通往艺术表达的媒介。
无论是远行旅途中，抑或漫步于寻常街巷，他习惯以目光凝视，以心神感受。那些闯入视野、叩击心扉的景与物，被他悄然定格。而后，借由在软件工程与图像处理领域的专业技能，他将这些瞬间淬炼为摄影作品——试图让最终呈现的画面，不仅复现镜头前的真实，更映照出按下快门时心底的震颤。
他亦坦然：技术常追赶不上心象。单帧影像，有时难以承载彼时情感的万分之一。于是便有了这个博客——让文字与图像相互注解，更完整地袒露那些驱使他举起相机的悸动。
偶有作品流露纪实的气息，那是当他遇见本就充盈着美与温度的世间片段，只消静静见证，如实记录。

最喜欢的相机/DL’s Favorite Camera
当然、自然、肯定、必须是徕卡(Leica) IIIf 和 M3。
最喜欢的数码相机/DL’s Favorite Digital Camera
数码相机对我而言多是“众生平等”，都是工具。不过，有一个是例外，尽管它傻大黑粗，偏又传感器最小 — 奥林巴斯 (Olympus) OM-D E-M1X。我的徕卡M相机都要靠后。

没有任何迟疑，一定是蔡司的各种Planar。Contax Planar 50mm/1.4, Carl Zeiss ZM Planar 50mm/2。
最喜欢的黑白胶片/DL’s Favorite black and white film
极喜欢Fomapan 100的曝光曲线和颗粒感。
