摄影是视觉艺术，是光影艺术；摄影是人与人，人与自然的无言的对话，是人的视觉和感觉的流露与表白; 境由心生，一个镜头，一幅照片，是一份情感的凝聚，一次思想的聚焦，一个瞬间的定格，因此，摄影者要有一双善于发现的眼睛，善于感悟的心灵，只有这样，才能发现美，挖掘美，审视美。
　　高原的天是湛蓝的，云是洁白的，山是雄伟的，水是清澈的，阳光是灿烂的，色彩是绚丽的，风景是诱人的；高原的民族是众多的，民俗是多样的，民风是朴实的；高原的人是善良的，好客的。美好的风景，美好的风情，美好的风俗，给人以美好的心情，美好的感受，也给人以将美好定格于永恒的欲望。
　　尽管我的摄影理论功底尚不深厚，摄影技巧也不尽完美，但由于潜在的摄影情结，美妙的高原景色，促使我重新拿起搁置许久的相机。几年来，我的业余时间大多是用在行走高原之上,沉醉于光影之中了，摄影情结也在这里得到了发掘与升华，且深不言喻。行走之间，我用眼，用心，用情孜孜以求地去捕捉和记录那一个个美好的瞬间，将每一次的发现，每一次的感知，每一次的心跳，每一次的激动记录于相机之中，记录于心灵之中。也让那美好的瞬间陶冶自我情操。
　　当朋友分享我的收获与喜悦，并提出愿意不遗余力地帮助我将收获整理成册时，我感动了，兴奋了，我意识到整理成册的含义：这是对我几年来辛苦与追求的评价与认可，是我摄影道路的第一个驿站，也是又一个起点。
　　在这里，十分感激为这本影集前期进行构思、设计、编辑等方面提供大力支持与帮助的合肥工业大学建筑与艺术学院副教授、中国摄影家协会会员、安徽省摄影家协会理事栗洪宁先生；金王影像文化传媒公司艺术总监、合肥市青年摄影家协会秘书长高卫宁先生；中国摄影家协会会员、国家一级摄影师，安徽省摄影家协会创作、展览部主任黄若丁先生；感谢在影集文字加工与英文翻译上提供大力支持与帮助的安徽大学的柯凌雁、纪云女士；同时，还要特别感谢对影集编辑与出版给予热情指导、帮助与支持的中国摄影出版社副社长萨社旗老师。正是由于他（她）们的关心与帮助，才使影集更具视觉效果和艺术感染力，也使我对摄影有了更深层次认识和理解，增添了我对摄影的兴趣与热情。
　　天地彩云路，人在路上，路在脚下，既然已经上路，我则会沿着这条蜿蜒曲折与绚丽多彩的道路继续走下去，用心将沿途的美好记忆下来，让美好伴随生活里程，伴随生命里程，让美好在镜头之中得到延续与永恒……

　　Photography is the art of vision, light and shadow, a silent dialogue between human beings and nature. It is the expression of vision and sense. Each photo captures a moment to reveal the emotions and thoughts of the photographer. Being a photographer, he must have sharp eyes good at finding the moments and mind to realize what he wants to shoot. Only in this way can he find the beauty and display the beauty.  
　　The sky in the plateau is blue, the clouds are white, the mountains are magnificent, the water is clear, the sun is bright, the colors are gorgeous and the scenery is charming. There live many minority nationalities with various folk customs. The people are honest, warm-hearted and hospitable. All these beautiful sceneries arouse the strong desire to grasp the charming moments.
　　Although I don’t know many photographic theories and have no perfect photographic skills and techniques, I love photography. The wonderful landscape of the highland urges me to take up my camera that I put aside for years again. In the past few years, I spent most of my spare time in traveling around the plateau and immersed in light and shadow. I caught and recorded every charming moment diligently with my eyes, heart and deep emotions to the plateau. I put each discovery, each experience and excitement in my came and my heart. Conversely, the charming moment molded my temperament and sentiment.
　　I share my photos and happiness with my friends. I was moved greatly and excited when they told me that they would like to help me compile and publish my photos. I realized that this is the evaluation and approval to my hard work and pursuit in the past years. This is my first stop and also a new start.
Here I owe much gratitude to assistant professor in College of Art and Architecture, Hefei Engineering University, member of China Photographers Association, director of Anhui photographers Association - Mr. Li Hongning and chief art inspector of Jinwang Cultural Medias Co. Ltd of Images, member of China Photographers Association, director of Exhibition Department in Anhui Photographer Association – Mr. Huang Ruoding for their support and help in design and compiling the book. Great thanks to Ms. Ke Lingyan and Ji Yun in Anhui University for their help and support in polishing the text as well as the translation of the book. Here I should express my special thanks to vice president of China Photographic Publishing House - Ms. Sa Sheqi for her advise and help. It is because of their concern and help, the album possesses strong artistic appeal. I have got deeper understanding to photography and love photography more.
　　Rosy-Cloud Road between the Heaven and the Earth, I will follow the tortuous but gorgeous road continuously to create more beautiful photos with my heart so that the beauty of life can be lasted and eternal in the length…
