This photo of Churchill is very strange. It is a photo of Churchill angry. This photo can be regarded as an accidental photo. ◇↓◇↓小◇↓ said,
It was January 27, 1941. Churchill, who had just finished a meeting, came to a small cubicle in No. 10 Downing Street to take photos. However, Churchill, smoking a cigar, seemed too relaxed and did not match the leadership charm envisioned by photographer Kah.
It didn't match, so Kah stepped forward and took the cigar away from the leader's mouth.
Churchill was taken aback. He was irritated by Kah's actions. The moment he glared at Kah, Kah pressed the shutter.
"I didn't expect that the prime minister of a country would lose his temper sometimes." Han Peacock said with a smile.
Churchill, the Prime Minister, has been praised so much by others. I didn't expect that such a photo would be taken.
"This isn't important, is it?" Cao Meili said.
Han Kongque shook his head. If it were in China, such photos involving leaders would definitely not be circulated.
However, Han Peacock didn't want to say more about this. Even if he said too much, Chinese Americans like Cao Meili, who grew up abroad, wouldn't understand.
"Look at this one, it's the cutest photo. I've seen this photo before." Amy pointed at a photo and said happily.
This photo is of a cute kitten that fell into a soup basin. Of course, this is not a pot of kitten soup. The 8-week-old cat purrs and wants to know what its owner’s dinner is.
It circled around the owner's noodle soup pot until one end was loaded into it...
"Isn't this famous painting "The Salvaged Kitten" super cute?" Amy pulled Cao Meili and explained while laughing.
This kind of photo looked very boring to Han Kongque. He pointed to another photo and said, "Is this guy bungee jumping? He's bungee jumping off a building. He's really good at it."
Chris William Doyle said with a serious face: "This is not bungee jumping, but jumping off a building. Although this picture is not as shocking as the one just now, it can still shock the human soul. This is a reference to the 911 incident.
victim."
The tragedy of September 11, 2001, tested the human spirit and courage. The person who fell to his death in this photo was one of the hundreds of people who jumped from the World Trade Center that day.
The photo initially sparked outrage, with people accusing it of being disrespectful to death.
The photographer said: "I didn't photograph this man's death, I photographed a part of his life."
For most people, this photo will forever be closely associated with 9/11.
"Forget it, don't look at this kind of sad thing. You see, this is the most classic street photography. The subject of this photo is not important, but it is a popular masterpiece by Cartier-Bresson, showing a boy: two hands
Each of them held a large wine bottle and walked home with great ambition, as if they had completed a glorious and arduous task.
The characters in the photos have very natural and real emotions, showing Bresson's skillful capture skills. Capture is the basic method that Bresson adheres to throughout his life. He never interferes with his subjects." Chris William Doyle
I quickly turned the page and started commenting on another photo.
"What about this one? Is this an artistic photo?" Han Kongque had noticed this photo a long time ago because it was a naked woman and she was beautiful.
Chris William Doyle smiled and said: "This is a very famous picture. The name is "Her Name is Margaret Mather". This seated human body makes Weston's ******** reached its peak and is one of ********'s greatest classics, resulting in a series of abstract body art."
"I was indeed right, this is really human body art." Han Peacock said with a smile.
"This is the most interesting photo. It is the most deceptive photo in history. The photo above is called "Trap", and the photo below is called "Prelude to Trap". Two photos, one panel depicts a beautiful woman wearing a coat. In addition, One of them has no clothes on.
"Prelude to the Trap" The painter painted a nude painting of his girlfriend wearing a coat. This was a 'trap' carefully arranged by the photographer on the banks of the Seine. The original purpose was just to see how the people around her would react to it. "Chris William Doyle pointed to the other two photos.
"It seems that collecting photos is also very interesting." Han Peacock said with a smile.
Chris William Doyle closed the album and said, "What are you going to do with this album, Mr. Han? Are you planning to collect it?"
Han Kongque said: "If there is no trouble, let's auction it! It's boring to grow a small amount of things. Besides, I'm short of money now, so I just sold these photos to supplement my funds."
When Han Kongque said this, Cao Meili and Amy, who were still chatting about these photos, fell silent.
Chris William Doyle didn't care what the two little girls were thinking. As long as he had the opportunity to auction these photos, he would be happy.
So Chris William Doyle immediately said happily: "I wonder if our Bill Auction Company has the honor to auction these photos? Boss Han can rest assured that our cost will definitely be the lowest, and there is no need to worry about publicity. With these photos , as long as we look for some more old photos, we can hold a special photo auction."
"Okay, you contact my lawyer about this, and I will sign it then." Han Kongque said happily.
"Thank you, Boss Han, for your trust." Chris William Doyle happily hugged Han Peacock again, which made Han Peacock very uncomfortable.
"Boss, I remembered. I came here to tell you the good news." At this moment, Cao Meili whispered.
"Announcement of good news?" Han Kongque said without knowing why.
Cao Meili showed an excited smile on her face and said: "Don't you remember the fossil that my boss gave me on the first day?"
"The first day? You mean that mini dinosaur fossil?" Han Peacock asked.
Cao Meili said: "Yes, that's the one. At that time, we thought it was a fake fossil, but we didn't expect it to be authentic later. Just now, one of our archaeologists found a small rock with something strange, but we didn't expect it to be a lemon. size skull.
Through our research, we found that it is the earliest horned dinosaur discovered so far on the North American continent. This skull belongs to a distant relative of Triceratops. It is very similar to Angelopus. It is much smaller than its truck-sized descendant Triceratops. Much lighter.
The skull of Angelopus that we later found was about 8.4 centimeters long. It had a very obvious hooked nose and pointed cavities on its cheeks. Compared with the iconic head armor and facial angles of later species, this kind of skull was There is no decoration on the dinosaur's head.
3D printing simulated the situation of placing Angelop's skull on the Triceratops skull. We can clearly see how small this newly discovered dinosaur is. This is very similar to the one the boss gave us.
resemblance."
"Angelop Snow Sheep? The ancestor of Triceratops? Is it a Snow Sheep or a dinosaur?" Han Peacock asked.
Cao Meili regretfully said: "Of course it is a dinosaur. As for whether it is the ancestor of Triceratops, this still needs to be determined. However, now we have determined that this is a new species that lived on the North American continent at the end of the Cretaceous Period 66 million years ago.
Plant dinosaurs.”
Amy also said: "Now we have excavated three fossil specimens and specially formed a research team to analyze them. Fossil records show that horned dinosaurs appeared from Asia and lived 108 million years ago (Angelop).
era) spread to North America near the Bering Strait.
Based on these studies, we found that it probably weighed only 1.4 kilograms (3 pounds), about the size of a cat, and was only 61 centimeters long, making it much smaller than its later, more famous relative, the Triceratops, which weighed
More than 4,000 times larger than that, it is the earliest horned dinosaur discovered so far on the North American continent.
Reconstructing the evolutionary history of North American ceratopsians (plant-eating, bird-like beaks) has puzzled experts for decades due to a lack of fossil records, but this new discovery may provide new clues."
Han Peacock looked at some of the photos provided by Amy and felt they were nothing like the mini dinosaur fossil he found.
However, they are professionals. Since they say they are the same kind of dinosaur, Han Peacock can only think that they are the same kind of dinosaur.
After 3D printing simulation, Han Peacock discovered that Angelop's skull was really not big, with a very obvious hooked nose and sharp cavities on the cheeks. In comparison, this kind of dinosaur had no decoration on its head.
, it does not have the iconic head armor and facial horns of later species.
"Can you be sure that the ancestors of this dinosaur came from Asia?" Han Peacock was most interested in this.
Whether it is tropical turtles, ancient human fossils, or Indians, they all prove that the American continent and the Asian continent were originally connected together or interconnected by channels. The Korean Peacock is still more interested in this.
Cao Meili said: "This dinosaur is now considered the oldest member of the horned dinosaur family in North America. What is surprising is that Angelopus is very closely related to similar species in Asia. It is older than the second oldest horned dinosaur in North America.
Dinosaurs are nearly 20 million years older.
With this discovery, we studied other horned fossil records and found that Angelop's ancestors may have come from Asia. If this prediction is true, it will support the theory of "cross-continental migration" between Asia and North America.
My grandfather and others agreed that this migration occurred in the Early Cretaceous Period (105 million to 113 million years ago). Now we have made a 3D model of this dinosaur. As the research on this prehistoric creature deepens, we will
Add more details to the model."
"You did a good job, is there anything else? If it's okay, I want to buy Mr. Doyle a drink." Han Peacock was a little surprised to see Chris William Doyle standing aside and listening so carefully, but since he didn't leave
, Han Peacock was too embarrassed to chase people away.
"Let's go back and continue working." Cao Meili was very understanding and took Amy away. She originally wanted to remind Han Kongque of the research funding promised, but now it is obvious that the time is not suitable. (To be continued.) Mobile phone users please visit
