The Yinyun Weizi mainly reflects the indescribable atmosphere filled in the transition color between red and purple; Qingliang Yaohuang, in the hot summer, yellow and green give us a rare and refreshing cool; Yaoye Shibanfocuses is on the hierarchical relationship between the petals, reflecting the levels and ethereal in the overlap and complexity; In the White Night Light, a kind of poetry and poetic sentiment infiltrate our hearts; Youbao Fangrui presents the texture and pulsation in the microscopic horizon. This is the classification to the WANG Kunfeng peony series of macro photography by LI Shufeng, director of the Institute of Photography of the China National Academy of Art. That piece of green, deep red, tender core, or the overlapping petals, the peony under the lens of WANG Kunfeng brings a different visual experience.

　　In Luoyang city, WANG Kunfeng loves peony. The whole world's peony is from Luoyang, which is the hometown of peony, and peony is the city flower of Luoyang, a special complex in Luoyang people's heart. Since the ancient times, peony has become the carrier of people's empathy. In the present, it is the value orientation of the times and the people's aesthetic love. WANG Kunfeng said: "I live and work in Luoyang, there is no reason not to love peony. As a photographer, peony is the subject by my side, and there is no reason not to present and praise her." In 40 years of time, WANG Kunfeng and Peony as companion, he records and explores the charm of her life, and the flower witnesses his exploration and innovation on the road of art.

　　He divided his journey of shooting peony into three stages. The first stage is a documentary approach to presenting the variety, shape and color of the peony from an objective perspective and introducing the Luoyang peony to the viewers. In the second stage, WANG Kunfeng stepped out of the documentary thinking and expression, pursuing the life course of the peony, and integrating the sentiment of life into his creation. His figurative and intentional imagery show the peony's graceful character, and the translucent charm. Walking into the life process of peony is to enter people's life. When Peony becomes a life image, it also has more poetic and artistic meaning. In 2008, the Luoyang Municipal Government published WANG Kunfeng's National Colors and Fragrance peony photography album, and presented the album to domestic and foreign guests as gifts. In the same year, he also held the National Colors and Fragrance Peony Photography Exhibition. But he was not immersed in the joy of success. After receiving much foreign photography information and reading a lot of domestic and foreign photography works, he discovered his own problems. "My second stage of creation did not really distance myself from others. I believe that only the mature personality in art possesses the real value. I feel that I have come to the end in the original concept and method, forcing me to make a new breakthrough." he sought a new breakthrough on the basis of another "negative" self.

　　With the new shooting equipment, WANG Kunfeng harvested achievement in the third stage of exploration. Inspired by Karl Blossfeldt's "new objectivism", he formed a new creative idea, the macro shooting of the peony petal after a long-term thinking and experimentation. To this end, he has added a 100 millionpixel PHASE ONE XF100MP camera, macro lens, luminaires and graphics workstations for later use. In the practice of groping again and again, he discovered the beauty of peony flowers. WANG Kunfeng didn't just shoot what he saw, but he saw what it was in the process of shooting. He even saw what he had taken after the filming was enlarged. He said that every shot, with a new unknown tension and expectation, is full of random, occasionality and fun, together with harvesting of unexpected surprises. Life is unique, and the beauty presented by variety of peony is more abundant. WANG Kunfeng insisted on completing the peony's different charms in every "button-pressing".

　　Is it a more real figuration? Or still highly de-familiar abstraction? WANG Kunfeng uses the macro to show that the peony has a variety of interpretation possibilities. Through the way of photography, he showed us the peony flower that people feel very familiar with, the quality and texture of the peony detail in an artistic way, and the structure and relationship of the internal world of the petal and the flower. LI Shufeng pointed out that WANG Kunfeng's peony works have "capitalized" the skeletal structure of the peony flower, and analyzed the inner texture and melody of the flower so that we can linger, indulge and relish in an unspeakable fragrance and beauty. "This is the grandest opening of flower heart by the photographer and the most sincere tribute to the natural beauty of the flower world." Through WANG Kunfeng's photographic works, it is not difficult to feel the artist's artistic discovery and life experience in the works. High abstraction frees the image from the shackles of objects, the pure light, lines and colors are the life and meaning of the image. The photo critic LIN Lu made such an interpretation about WANG Kunfeng's works: "the peony has already left in the picture and turned into a pure form space." If the relevant context is removed, only few people can recognize that the object of the work is peony if they face WANG Kunfeng's macro photography. It is like the delicate petals of the silk that is moving with the wind, the petals that stand like mountains and rivers, and the flowers that seem to be blooming in the next second. Under the lens of WANG Kunfeng, everything seems familiar and strange.

　　The creation never stops, and WANG Kunfeng is still searching on the road of art. The declining peony has its own unique charm as well. He turned his attention to the withered peony in the office. The photographer who once again "forgot himself" will raise his " miraculous and magical" lens to explore his personalized artistic path.
