I am a traveler first, photographs are the byproducts of my travels. I pay little attention to cameras and related gadgets, instead I focus on the images themselves. I photograph what moves me. Serene, warm or poetic scenes often win my heart immediately. Yet, scenes of struggle, conflict and persistence, grab me just the same.  

My photos are a combination of travelogue and commentary, depicting my moods or aesthetics. These pictures are my way of reaching out and embracing the world.   

I hope that before I disappear from the earth, or before this world vanishes before my eyes, I would capture as much of it as I could.

 

我是一個旅行人﹐攝影是旅行的副產品。  

我未曾特意花心思在相機和鏡頭上﹐注意力大多集中在所看到的東西。之所以拍下照片﹐多半是有什麼感覺。 

我對和平的﹐安詳的﹐具詩意和美學的景象﹐常駐足流連。對掙扎的﹐衝突的﹐不解的﹐或奪眼的﹐也留心記錄。我的攝影表達我對這個世界的質疑和熱愛。

我希望這個世界在我的眼中隱去之前﹐或者說我從這個地球上消失之前﹐能把它看個夠。
