光影见证高原巨变

News Summary
On December 18, the “Mirror of the Nation – Century of Light and Shadow” photo exhibition and the themed show “Capturing the Hehuang Basin – Shining on Le Du” opened at the Haidong City Library in Qinghai Province. The exhibition is built around more than a hundred historic photos from Xinhua News Agency’s archives. Through sections such as “Abundant Food and Clothing,” “Peaceful Living and Work,” and “Massive Changes Over Time,” it retraces the Chinese nation’s journey from standing up, to becoming prosperous, to becoming strong, highlighting the achievements and profound transformations of the new era.

The “Capturing the Hehuang Basin – Shining on Le Du” area focuses on the work done in Le Du District during the 14th Five‑Year Plan. Nearly one hundred images show the progress made in Party building, urban development, modern agriculture, clean energy, transportation networks, and the improvement of living conditions in towns and villages. At the opening ceremony, image collections were presented to model workers, student representatives, and local organizations, with the hope of sharing these records and the warmth they contain with the region’s laborers and hopeful citizens.

Reflection and Inspiration
Photographs capture everyday details and the footprints of an era. As we look at images that document labor, mutual aid, and better living standards, we are reminded that social progress depends on honest work, caring for one another, and patient perseverance for tomorrow. The concern and comfort the Bible offers to those who toil echo the humble efforts seen in these pictures—by supporting each other amid the busyness, small changes can combine into a great transformation.
