I took this photo a couple years back. It was a beautiful sunny winter morning, I was still living right next to the Lama Temple in Beijing, I could see the temple just from my stairwell. The Lama Temple is a Tibetan Buddhism temple built in Qing Dynasty, which explains why it looks very different from other tradition Chinese Buddhism temples.
我是在一两年前拍下的这张照片。那是一个晴朗的冬日清晨，我那时还住在雍和宫的正旁边，我可以从楼梯间清楚的看到那些宫殿。雍和宫建于清朝年间，属于藏传佛教，这也是为什么它看起来和其他中国的寺庙不一样的原因。
A good day makes a good photo. It had just snowed, the air was still pretty cold, but the sun was out, there was barely any clouds, and bare any people. There was still some snow on the roofs, but if you ignore the coldness and the snow, you might almost think it's a bright and hot summer day. This kinda weather is very rare in a Beijing winter, which makes this photo even more precious.
美好的天气拍的照片也同样美好。之前的两天刚下了一场雪，空气中依旧飘荡着寒冷，但是那天太阳高悬，几乎可以可以算是万里无云，路上和宫中也几乎没有行人。宫殿的屋檐上还可以看到残留的一些白雪，但是如果你忽略掉寒冷的空气和那些白雪，你估计会以为那是一个晴朗的夏日。这样的天气在北京的冬天可真是不多见，也就是的这张相片晓得更加弥足珍贵了。
Camera used: Canon 7D w/ 18-105mm f3.5-5.6
