I is skilled in capturing images of the tides, sunrises, and sunsets of the beauteous coast. Dawn Before and After captures sunrise before the arrival of the monsoons in Taiwan’s north coast. I has captured a magical landscape of wondrous clouds and colors before the monsoon winds hit the shoreline.


Waves rushes by the rocks, transforming the rocks into mountaintops emerging from the blanket of clouds. The sky in the distant horizon is dyed a brilliant red, heralding the impending sunrise. By capturing breathtaking natural visages, I has provided viewers with visual imageries of Taiwan’s beautiful landscapes that they can personally appreciate.

kuo hsing‧Lai dedicated himself to art landscape and humanistic photography for more than 28 years, and holds that image with vitality can make an impression on people, and emotion and vitality are important factors in creation. Optimal rules of photography is to "forget the past, and seek a new thinking". From an insistence of real replication to questioning, subversion, the usage of violation, then to the innovation process of creation in a creative way.

During these years,made the best use of the zone system theory(1941) by Ansel Adams, conducting a research into in today's digital video mode, and developing photography model called Temporal and Spatial concept which is developed by himself. That is to say, adding a sense of flow on the originally inspissated plane images, to form stereo images with the life force.
