Sanqing Shan is famous for its strange rocks, strangely shaped pines and the mist.
My four photos here will not do justice to the scenery there, but these are the best I have got, given the short stay there.
Many of the pines are older than 100 years.
They reach out for more sunlight, more air and moisture.
Sanqing Shan is a UNESCO site.

the most beautiful place on earth…thank you for sharing
Glad you like this, Brenda!
Now I know I wasn’t even born when my Humans lived in China 2006 to 2012, bloody hell they must be old… anyway they watched your video with me. Your photography is jaw dropping and the scenery had my Humans in tears. They have been there, they get it, but your pictures bring it home againβ¦ Obsoletely spectacular, give yourself a pat on the back for the photos mate!

Hi Ralp, thanks for the kind comment. I didn’t prepare the video and I have now amended my post to say this explicitly. Regards, Michael
Lovely Michael! The rocks shape like a woman waiting for her loved one…
They said it is a fairy! I have seen pictures which show a full body view. My view was partially obstructed and restricted to the top portion as I was high up.
Thanks for the share. A blessed day all!
many thanks for your Like and reblogging this on!
Which software did you use to make the video? I’m looking for an easy-to-use one.
Hi, I did not take the video. To prevent any misunderstanding, I have amended my post to spell it out that the video was not prepared by me.
I am a static picture man and don’t quite know how to take videos!
So am I, a static picture woman. But I want to change that – video content seems to be pretty popular.
Funny to say, I don’t use cameras for taking videos. maybe, they can produce cheaper cameras without the video function to suit dummies like me π
Somehow, I find that cameras generally don’t perform as well when used to record video – there is a lag in focus and camera noises tend to get recorded. I prefer mobile phones.
Agreed. Regards, Michael
SanQing Shan is very beautiful. It really looks such a special place.
Indeed, it is a special place!
I am always amazed at how my vision of ancient chinese paintings of mountains and mist is… how shall I say? “Confirmed by your photographs. Hard to explain. In my mind’s eye, all I had were the paintings, which I thought were a… poetic rendition. But no. One can actually see it. (Do I make sense?)
Maybe if one has only seen Van Gogh’s paintings of the french countryside and never seen a picture or walked in the wheat fields, one would have the same shock at seeinga photograph or the reality of french wheat fields.

When I was a kid, I couldn’t believe those views in paintings are based on actual sightings, of course, my believe changed when I saw those landscape!
Same for me. I still have to c the real thing. π
Thank you, Brian!
