We were there.
按下快門的時候,我們已經在其中。
這裡的照片,都是我們親自拍下的,多數用的是 iPhone。我們未必等到了最好的光線與時機,但那一刻,已經走在路上、坐在桌邊,與眼前的人和風景相遇。
Most of these photographs were taken on an iPhone, by us, along the way. Sometimes through a windscreen, sometimes over a meal. The light was whatever the day gave us. The moment was one we were part of.




A haircut. Market day. The walk home. There is plenty to notice when nothing has been arranged for visitors.
我們想帶你走近的,也有這些普通日子。有人趕場,有人理髮,有人正要回家。你可以慢慢走,不必每一步都有目的。


Your next favourite meal might be somewhere you weren’t looking.
一碗麵值不值得繞路,要看你喜歡甚麼,也看那天想怎麼走。名氣可以參考,你的胃口更重要。






A graduation show is also a glimpse of what comes next.
走進畢業展,看看年輕人正在想甚麼。有些作品讓你停下來,有些讓你想問一句:為甚麼?


Not every collection comes with a queue.
有些值得看的,就在日子旁邊。有人天天經過,我們卻願意為它停一會兒。





The same place can feel entirely different a few hours later.
早一點出門,或晚一點離開。有時不用走得更遠,只是換個時間,就有了自己的片刻。



Leave time for a second look.
不急著看完,才有時間看進去。


A different sense of scale, a few steps in.
走進去,才知道自己有多小。








Some views stay with you long after they leave the rear-view mirror.
前面是雪山,身後也是。這一路,不必急著問還有多久才到。





The view from where we stood.
站在這裡,看見的和航拍不一樣。腳下的路、迎面的風,也都算在風景裡。


The photograph remembers the snow. We remember the morning.
遠行的準備,常常不在照片裡。



Between ceremonies, the day carries on.
遠道而來的人看見風景,生活在這裡的人過著今天。

Some moments ask us to put the camera away.
有些現場,理解比留下影像更重要。


Made by hand. Kept in use.
有些東西被珍藏,有些仍在過日子。



Look closer. More than one tradition has shaped this place.
不同的文化,在同一座建築裡留下了細節。


We came to see the salt fields. She was at work.
「你就叫我大姐吧。」比起名字,我們先記住了這句話。

Even a mountain day has its ordinary stops.
看山的那一天,也有這樣的片刻。




Step closer. There is more within the frame.
遠看是一幅,近看才發現,每一筆都值得停留。


A place can honour its past and still be making something new.
看過宮殿,也逛逛今天的店。生活沒有停在我們熟悉的印象裡。


Some of the day’s best conversations happen over food.
一起找食材,再坐下來吃。旅程裡的熟悉,有時從一頓飯開始。




We were watching them. Sometimes, they watched back.
我們看牠們,牠們也看我們。



Their kind of discovery belongs in the journey too.
大人有想看的風景,小朋友也有自己的發現。
