The eighth and final season of 《 game of thrones 》 premiered on April 14, 2019, and fans around the world are thrilled.One fan is German photographer Kilian Schonberger, who recently paid tribute to the magical series with his own offbeat images.Schonberger's photographs, aptly titled "Winter is Coming", were shot in the dark forests and mountains of central Europe...
This article is divided into two parts, 《 game of thrones 》 series and the author's other photographic works
Kilian Schonberger, born in 1985, is a photographer and geographer from Germany.He always wanted to be a photographer with a unique style and perspective -- even though he was colorblind.Schonberger, however, turned this disadvantage into an advantage, putting aside those colors and focusing on the mastery of light, shadow, line and texture of images. These efforts have attracted wide attention of his works in recent years.
Winter comes from the north, and so does the army of the dead
Westeros faces serious threats, not just from winterfell
The whole north would be assailed by the spears and swords of the white walkers and their undead
A frozen hand caught the mountain and Hornwood
Fear from the far north
A landscape of snow and ice
There is an ancient life there
Only a few people have seen them
Even fewer have met and survived
They were the white walkers
In the north, the war began
The others destroyed the land north of the wall
The fallen are the leaders of the night king's others
Recruit an army of the living dead
The wall the land north of the wall was taken
The people who live there have to flee
But those killed by the white walkers
They became members of the legion of the living dead
All life here is in the shadow of death
This powerful barrier protected the south for centuries
But even that kind of defense
Nor can they stop the night king and his army
The night's watch's soldiers are even weaker against the necromancers
The undead from the cold tomb
One by one the watchmen's posts were breached
Death and silence enveloped them
The invaders from the north did not stop their attack
Their armies flooded the land south of the wall like fog
Lonely mountain and hornwood forest are the night king's prime targets
The people who live there seem unable to escape bad luck
People prayed to god for mercy
The old sacred places in the forest are being revisited
But apparently faced with a powerful invader
There is nothing useless in prayer
The nobles sought refuge behind the castle
Civilians tried to flee into the forest
Some people leave the forest
Others still live in the forest
The nobles' castle became a trap
With the attack of the undead, this place becomes purgatory
The terrible thing is that no one is captured.
The war between brave soldiers and the undead is not equal
Under the power of the undead
Few survived
And they become the new force of the undead
The dead became rulers of the land
Almost all life here is gone
Humans have only a few choices
Hidden deep in the cold forest
Or hide behind the strong walls of a remote fortress
But these survivors' days are numbered
Under the attack of the undead
It is only a matter of time before the castle is breached
In the north of westeros, there is little hope of survival
Southerners, too, seem resigned to their fate
Is this the end of human history
But suddenly the sun shone red
No, that's not light. That's fire
It's the dragon's fire
The burning breath of the dragon is upon the cold undead
Has the dragon mother come to save us
Is this a turning point in the war
We don't know
But it's a perfect storyline in my imagination
Photography by Kilian Schonberger
Kilian Schoenberger has a forest behind his home
He had been fascinated by the enigmatic scene in the forest
Grimm's fairy tales and old stories from home
Was his source of inspiration
He is an excellent photographer
Congenital color blindness, which is why his works are so impressive
For him, color was always a game of chance
He explained that the
I don't have to visually distinguish colors
Instead, focus on stunning images and composition and texture
After the rain, stay until dawn
You can find fantastic conditions
High humidity and low temperatures usually create powerful fog
Can make the common forest full of mystery
The day before the shoot
Do your homework about the weather
Look for a high point while shooting
To look at the surroundings and at the right Angle
But usually for one shot, sometimes for several kilometers
In the forests of medieval Europe
Some areas have been grazed for over a century
Trees can be trampled into strange shapes by animals
But these are imaginative elements in his eyes
Fog became an important element in his paintings
