常常不經意的想起，在華麗的米蘭大教堂前，邂逅了熱情女孩們的那一天。 It often occurs to me the day when I came across some passionate girls at the Milan Cathedral.

　　Milano, Italy? 從長頸鹿到斑馬，這世界轉了270度。 然而， 在台北萬華舊城區，年近90歲的陶祝K枝女士每天依然點起樂活的煙。 在躍動的伊斯坦堡，勤奮的機械男每天依然帶著篤定的笑準時上工。

　　The world takes a 270 degree turn, from giraffe to zebra. However, in the old town area of Wan-Hwa, Madam Hsu, a nearly 90 years old lady, still lights up her cigarettes, as her little daily joy of life. In the vibrant Istanbul city, a hard-working mechanic still smiles with certainty while going to work on time as always.

　　習慣定期把累積的作品列印出來，隨性貼於工作室內的大牆面，除了欣賞，也讓自己可以在同時奮數百張照片當中，激發出多元化的創作靈感。某個深夜，眼光再次快速掃描於作品間時，宜蘭蘇澳港邊海產店水族箱內，那隻展鰭舞蹈的獅子魚，巧遇了法國巴黎拉發葉百貨公司的雄偉華麗天頂。兩張作品有如多年分隔兩地的老友般，在我腦海中彼此呼喚，讓我發覺了他們微妙的連結關係，也開始對於大牆上其他的故事感到好奇。? 基隆野柳沿岸奇特的海蝕地形，曼谷機場內豔麗輝煌的外幣兌換小鋪。 伊斯坦堡市集內琳琅滿目的瓷器行，萬華外婆家充滿溫暖回憶的小廚房。 坐落於台北與基隆間深山裡的小土地公廟，十四號月台前弧形挑高的米蘭車站。 外牆前衛的多倫多博物館，奧地利鄉村小旅館繕菪漭蓂y桌的花園。 大阪粉紅色調曙U裡的快步西裝男，波士頓哈佛廣場上的孤獨吉他手。? 相稱的圖騰，相容的色調，相似的結構，相連的故事，還是每次按下快門瞬間相同的心靈悸動，讓照片們彼此有了連結。編輯成冊，讓人奮時每翻過一頁，內心都有不同的共鳴，有時驚艷，有時會心一笑，並且同時探索品味著左右兩頁間微妙的故事。? 翻噩媊R邂逅，如果你也有小小共鳴，我真是幸福至極。

PREFACE

　　Once in a while, I would print out a few of my photos and display them on a wall in my personal studio. I do so not only to appreciate the works, but also hope some sparks would come out of me. One late night, while I was browsingture display again, two special photos caught my eye. One is a shot of a lionfish in a fish tank of a restaurant in Suao, Yilan harbor. The other is a shot of the extravagant interior of the Lafayette mall ceiling in Paris. These two photographs seem like two old friends who finally reunited after years of separation. They appeared to be communicating. In my mind, a peculiar connection between them surfaced. Right on that point, my curiosity germinated and I couldn’t stop thinking about what dialogues I could find among the photos on the big studio picture wall.? People always say “A picture says more than a thousand words.” However, for me, “2 pictures say more than a thousand stories.” describes my feelings better. The following are some examples of the dialogue pairs.? The spectacular landscape of Yehliu, created from natural wind erosion, in contrast with a small money exchange office in Bangkok airport. The huge variety of porcelain shops in Istanbul city in contrast with the small kitchen of...
