Aerial view of Jinhu Poplar Forest - Southern Xinjiang Poplar Season [2].

As the sun gradually sets, the afterglow spreads across the entire poplar forest. The river meanders through the forest, which glows with a golden light. The trees lean on each other, entwined like a couple in love. A couple declares their love under the poplar trees. Love requires tenderness and unwavering devotion, like the gentle glow of the sunset, or the resilient and tenacious poplar trees. I waited until the sun had completely set. As night fell, the poplar trees showed no unease or hesitation, but instead became more resolute.
