The main concept of fengshui is qi; the breath of cosmos, cosmic spirit or energy. Qi creates and maintains life. Qi can be found in space, earth and in all the living creatures.
Qi can be understood literally as well; as a character it means a gas-like substance, for example water vapour.
Is it possible to have deeper substance in photography by following fengshui principles? Can images be richer, wiser, healthier, happier by following fengshui? How to capture qi? How could I put these five elements into practise while taking pictures? How about fengshui’s important cardinal points? Should I follow them during my picture-taking?
In traditional Chinese cosmology the universe was described as a living organism, which consisted of three layers; heavenly supernatural world, earthly natural world and the society of humans.
A person had to cherish the balance between heaven and earth, so the unity could function in a best possible way.
