每个项目开始正式拍摄前，时间较近的现场施工照片总能帮我理清拍摄思路、预估时间节奏。从田田咖啡晒场的现场照片看，项目点位海拔较高、会直接捕捉到最早的光线，因此能否拍摄到阳光最舒服的这段时间显得格外重要。
于是，第二天一大早我们从晒场所在地北边的泸水市出发，在树林和山谷间穿行。远处的天边渐渐泛黄，慢慢被照亮。抵达山脚后，顺着蜿蜒的盘山道，我们一个弯一个弯地向上爬坡。东边的山峦浸没在一片靛蓝色的帷幔中，仿佛任何一个下一秒，日出就会到来。
Before each project's official shooting begins, recent on-site construction photos always help me clarify my shooting strategy and estimate the timeline. Looking at the photos of the Tian Tian Coffee drying yard, the project site is at a high altitude, directly capturing the earliest sunlight, making it crucial to capture the most comfortable sunlight during this period.
So, early the next morning, we set off from Lushui City, north of the drying yard's location, driving through forests and valleys. The distant horizon gradually turned yellow, slowly illuminating the landscape. Reaching the foot of the mountain, we climbed the winding mountain road, one bend after another. The eastern mountains were shrouded in an indigo veil, as if sunrise would arrive at any moment.
驶过最后一小段碎石路，终于到了。晒场标志性的几座伞状结构从土坡后探出头来，像是在朝我们招手。
晒场藏在一条盘山路支路的尽头，背靠这一片高黎贡山段东面的半山坡，东望怒江沿岸的山谷小镇，以及更远处平行延展的横断山脉。向东约270度几乎没有遮挡，视野极为开阔。站在屋盖下远眺，耳边是早起开会的鸟雀啁啾。短暂的放空后，我便投入到忙碌的拍摄中了。
After driving through the last short stretch of gravel road, we finally arrived. The drying yard's iconic umbrella-shaped structures peeked out from behind the earthen slope, as if waving to us.
The drying ground is tucked away at the end of a side road winding through the mountains, nestled against the eastern slope of the Gaoligong Mountains. To the east, it overlooks the valley towns along the Nu River and the Hengduan Mountains stretching parallel to it. With an almost unobstructed 270-degree eastward angle, the view is incredibly expansive. Standing under the roof, I could hear the chirping of birds, as if they were having an early morning meeting. After a brief moment of peace, I plunged into the busy work of photographing.
晒场由几段相互错动的伞状棚架组成，形体简洁，但是有着丰富的南北纵向的图像关系。可惜东西方向的平地进深较浅，从人视点较难拍摄到体量感合适的正立面，只能借助航拍模拟比例舒适的正面照。
拍摄那天的天气令人赏心悦目，不论是早晨的侧向光还是中午的顶光，都对材料和结构形体的表现加分不少。天气一顺，其他大大小小的插曲，都显得无足轻重了。
The drying ground consists of several staggered, umbrella-shaped trellises, simple in form yet possessing a rich north-south longitudinal visual relationship. Unfortunately, the flat ground in the east-west direction is relatively shallow, making it difficult to capture a properly proportioned frontal view from a human perspective. I had to rely on aerial photography to simulate a comfortable frontal shot.
The weather on the day of the shoot was perfect. Both the sidelight in the morning and the overhead light at midday greatly enhanced the expression of the materials and structural forms. With such favorable weather, all other minor incidents seemed insignificant.
