Why do I feel moved when I see these sights? Perhaps, just describing how crystal clear the ice surface is, how flawless the sky is, or how stupid and cute penguins are, these seem to be unable to explain well, and the more real feeling is that I yearn for that kind of scene , or fantasy.
For the film itself, no matter the sound or picture quality, it can be said to be impeccable. Killer whales whipped up eddies to make icebergs collide, with a loud rumbling tail; each snowflake was played at a very slow speed, and the crisp silver bells of ice crystals were heard; polar bears ran in the snow, finally fighting, That low but deep voice... It's hard to dissipate in my ears to this day. And the narrator David Attenborough's slightly hoarse British accent makes people feel familiar and friendly, as if that's what an iconic documentary should have. The picture brings a wave of visual shock, and the melting glaciers pour into the deep sea. And the turbulent water flow at the entrance interprets the power of nature; in the cave leading to the interior of the volcano, the natural crystals maintain a clear water chestnut, dazzling and dazzling, telling a kind of purity; the subtle movements of the seabirds flapping their wings are captured, The lightness of the feathers and the power of flapping the wings perfectly show the freedom of stretching... Perhaps, we should thank the ultra-high-speed camera and aerial photography technology for allowing us to experience such a realistic picture, and more importantly, the photography crew Persevere day and night. As I said before, the expression of vocabulary is too pale after all, and I can only briefly introduce it. The more real feeling comes from the scene in front of you when you appreciate it and the scene in your mind aftertaste.
The film gave me the deepest memory from a subtle psychological change. At that time, the camera crew had already dived into the icy, extremely low waters to shoot, aerial photography from helicopters, and deep into the bottom of the constantly moving ice layer. Could it be that these crazy people wanted to take pictures of this land inside and out. all over? And it's just a joke, because I think it's impossible after all. So when I was shooting the mysterious active volcano, I couldn't help but tease, can I still go down to the volcano to take pictures? I didn't notice it at the time, and came to a negative conclusion so early. And just at the end of the film, when the footage of the shooting was played, at the beginning, it introduced how the shooting team went deep into the volcanic cave and the scene of Christmas in it. At that time, the psychology changed from the original joke to the sigh, and there was a bit of respect. The things that were inadvertently rejected and thought impossible were turned into reality by them one by one. The impact seems to tell people that as long as it is possible to shoot, we will shoot it inside and out, no matter what. No matter how dangerous, no matter how tired, no matter Christmas, no matter what other important day, what kind of strength and belief is supporting them, I know that it must not be money. Perhaps, as commentator Sir David Attenborough says, this may be humanity's last chance to appreciate the sight before dramatic changes in Earth's climate. The documentary captures many actions and phenomena that have never been recorded before. As time goes by, these images will become more and more precious, because this may be our last chance to record these precious scenes. It is a sense of responsibility and a sense of mission, to make a backup of the visions that are going to pass over time, and nothing else. After that, I rethought the public values of the BBC, and spent huge sums of money shooting just to be a witness to the world. This value has been deeply embedded in the marrow of every photographer.
The last thing I want to say is that a documentary that purely introduces the natural landscape can also impress you. Sometimes, admiration will be revealed inadvertently, and we don’t need to deliberately pursue the reason for admiration. After all, it is described thoroughly by the text. I hope everyone can have the opportunity to calm down and appreciate it. Share your feelings.
