内容提要
举世闻名的额济纳故乡是英雄的土尔扈特人民金色的家园。在这美丽的地方生长着一种叫胡杨的树木,以其顽强的生命力和不屈的精神被誉为“生而不倒一千年,倒而不死一千年,死而不朽一千年”,成为额济纳大地生命的礼赞和永恒的象征。在这苍茫无垠的瀚海深处她用金黄的颜色和迷人的微笑年复一年地绽放着亮丽风采,给人间带来美好和希望。
从遥远的祁连山起源的额济纳河,蜿蜒地流淌在这世世代代的故土上。唐代著名诗人杜甫在诗里这样描写她: “弱水应无地,阳关已近天。”葱葱笼笼的胡杨林绵延无边地点缀着从历史深处流过来的额济纳河两岸,阻挡着肆虐的狂风与沙尘,抗争着寒冷和酷暑,挺立到今天。胡杨林里穿梭着四季的景色,洋溢
着大自然永不枯竭的生命力,赐给人类无尽的遐想和艺术的灵感。包尔夫先生,一个土生土长的阿拉善蒙古人,一个具有着艺术灵性的摄影爱好者,用他对故乡的一股热爱,对大自然精美瞬间的观察和捕捉,拍下了这一幅幅美丽的图片并呈现在读者的面前,就是这本<<生命礼赞>>——胡杨摄影画册。
“心中无私天地宽,眼中有情山河美”,唯有把爱融入大自然,才能捕捉到那美好的景色中透出来的生命永恒的守望。包尔夫先生用他的镜头复制和扩大了象征着勤劳勇敢的土尔扈特人民之奉献精神的胡杨林,以季节的顺序分类整理,以飨读者,令我们感到耳目一新。从小聆听着阿爸,额吉传统而朴实的谆谆教诲,在大漢戈壁沙蒿沙竹中沐浴着阳光成长的戈壁之子包尔夫先生,肩负着神圣的工作使命,在额济纳工作多年之际,用心灵去品味土尔扈特故乡酥油飘香的奶茶,用思想去感悟岁月不可抹去的沧桑,用一颗虔诚的心,顶礼膜拜这吸吮着雪山圣水,穿越遥远的历史时空的大地神灵——胡杨,不仅仅是从视觉的欣
赏,更是从生态环保的理念和对生命和谐的认知去感悟,诠释这博大的自然界文化。
人们把具有着千百年顽强生命力的胡杨比喻为“植物界的活化石”是不无道理的。初生的时候以紫檀色朦胧之美点缀春天,在盛夏时节以深绿色的叶子装扮人间,晚秋的时候在阳光之下发出金黄色的色泽,数九寒冬她又银装素裹地傲立于生长的故土,是干旱的大漠戈壁一道迷人的风景和令人叹为观止的自然奇
迹。而他的摄影作品,仿佛在向我们诉说和回忆着这一切,让我们犹如身临其境,和栩栩如生的大自然亲切地对话。古人曰: “仁者爱山,智者乐水”,蒙古族谚语中亦有“怜悯众生,爱惜树木”的训诫,以此教育子孙后代,并以祭祀供奉的方式保护神树,以求风调雨顺、吉祥如意。在历史的风浪中沉淀下来的这
些圣贤之语和原生态的理念,给予了我们无穷的回味与思考。如今我把它引用在这篇序言里,即为他的这部摄影作品集给予由衷的祝贺,同时也对耸立于天地间的神圣的胡杨充满了崇高的敬仰。我们把英雄的土尔扈特人民比喻为风中的胡杨,是一点也不过分的。胡杨树赋予了我们时代的精神以及新的内涵,为家乡
奉献了新的价值理念,对生态环保、旅游文化、摄影艺术等诸多方面增添了新的风采,这何尝不是底蕴深厚、源远流长的民族文化之繁荣与延续呢!
最后,真诚地祝愿扎根于大地的民族文化就像这挺拔的胡杨向着金色的阳光枝叶茂盛地生长,祝包尔夫先生的艺术之树开花结果,取得丰硕的收获!

Preface
The well—known Ejin is the golden homeland of the heroic Torghut ,a branch of Mongolian. There Lives a kind of tree named populous divers folia in the beautiful land, which becomes the emblem
of everlasting Ejin for its legendary vitality of“growing one thousand year,keeping living after uprooting one thousand year,and keeping away from rotting one thousand year.”Year by year,populous
divers folia dedicates its graceful bearing to people here with its golden color and charming smile
The Ejin River raise from Qilian Mountains winds through the holy land for hundreds of years .The famous poet Dufu in tang dynasty described it that the river should run nowhere, because the
Yangguan fort nearby had reached the far end of the sky. Along the both sides of the river, flourishing populous divers folia trees have been standing against violent sandstorms through a long history
of bitter cold winters and extremely hot summers up to now .With its changing landscapes of four seasons ,the populous divers f0lia forest fully reflects the everlasting vitality of the nature and endows
the human with boundless imagination and artistic inspiration .Mr. Bolkhu, a Mongolian native in Alax and an enthusiastic amateur photography inborn with art intelligence,takes beautiful pictures for
us with his strong l0ve to his homeland by his keen insight to the nature and ability of seizing the right moment to shot .So the picture aobum is born,namely“An Euoogy of life”.
0f there is no selfishness in heart, there is a broad way to go, and with strong emotion inside, one can sense the beauty of nature. If only devote all love to the nature, can one catch sense of eternity re—
flecting from the changing wonderful landscapes. Mr. Bolkhu duplicates and magnifies the populous divers folia forest , which is an emblem of devotion spirt of the heroic Torghut. He rearranges the
picturesin the order of rotation four seasons to enjoy the readers, which is a new style of collection . Keeping apa and ama’s plain but earnest teachings in heart since he was a little boy ,Mr .B00khu
has been enjoying the sunshine with the sand wormwood and sand bamboo in the gobi desert.tasting the Torghut—style milk tea with his soul, and feeling the indelible great changes during years with
his mind. Shouodering a holy mission.he has been working in this land for many years .With his pious heart and soul, Mr. Bolkhu makes fetish of populous divers folia as the deity of the land, which ab—
sorbs the holy water of snow mountains through a1l the time and space, not only to watch it from the angle of vision, but also to appreciate it from the thinking of ecology and environment protection
and harmony of life,further more,to annotate the extensive and profound culture of the nature
It is reasonable to l00k upon populous divers folia with tenacious vitality as“iving fossil of the vegetable kingdom”.From the beginning of every year , it decorates spring with its hazy purple color,
cools hot summer with its deep green.,shins late autumn with its splendid golden, and dresses up bitter cold winter with silver snow . It is really a gorgeous landscape of arid gobi desert .And a marvelous
miracle of the nature! While Mr. Bolkhu’s atr get into the real scene and having conversation with the nature. The ancient said that the benevolent love mountains and the intelligence l0ve water, which
show their love to the nature .There is a Mongolian saying here“love people ,love the tree”teaching the descendants how to offer sacrifices to protect the holy tree , so as to acquire favorable weather
for the crops and good luck for the people. All the good advices and the thinking about original ecology from the wisdom initiate us ponder seriously about the nature. Hereby , I put the sayings into the
preface of the aobum not only to express my heartfelt congratula{tions to the work, but also to show my reverence to the holy populous divers’folia . it is no exaggeration to compare the heroic Torghut
Mongolian to the dauntless populous divers’folia. The populous divers’folia trees are endowing the era with new connotation ,and creating new value for its motherland by contributing to ecological
protection, culture of tourism and art of photography. It is really a prosperity and continuity of the deep—rooted and long—lasting national cuoture.
As last , i wish the national culture develops prosperously like populous divers folia , and wish Mr .Bolkhu’s tree of art blooms and outcomes rich fruits!
