城 事CITY EVENTS

對于城市的成長，每個人都有自己的記錄方式。

As for the growth of it, everyone has his own recording ways.

羅大萬的記錄方式，是用手里的鏡頭。在他的鏡頭里，城市、城市的人、城市的故事、城市的方方面面點點滴滴，或是細節(jié)，或是全景，或是局部，都得以用具象的方式呈現(xiàn)，并永久留存。

It is the lens that Luo Dawan uses to record this city. In his lens, the city and its citizens, stories of the city, all aspects of bits and pieces of the city, whether in details, panoramic view or parts, are all presented in the concrete way and stored forever.

羅大萬的本職工作是醫(yī)院的一名主任醫(yī)師，攝影是他的副業(yè)，更準確一點就是愛好。

He is a doctor by profession and a photographer by avocation, more accurately, taking photos is just his hobby.

在風雨交加、電閃雷鳴的夜晚，羅大萬架起相機捕捉那神秘且變幻莫測的夜空；在嘉陵江邊一座高樓上撐起三腳架，拍攝閃電劃過的渝中半島；背著相機，穿梭在居民房之間的小巷。常常守候幾小時，甚至是一個月、幾個月，只為等待摁下快門的那一完美時刻。這種堅持，換來城市發(fā)展的珍貴影像記憶。

At a rainy night of wind with flashing thunder and rumbling lightning,Luo Dawan sets up his camera stand to capture the mysterious and unpredictable night sky; he props up a tripod in a high-rise by the Jialing River to shoot lightning across the Yuzhong Peninsula;he shuttles in the alleys among the residents' houses. He often waits for several hours, even a month or over, just for the perfect moment to press the shutter. Precious memories of urban development come from this kind of insistence.

美國攝影大師BruceBarnbaum在其《攝影的藝術(shù)》一書中寫道:一張照片的意義在于，將原本我們一直熟悉,卻一直沒有看清楚的事物重新看清楚。

Bruce Barnbaum, an American photographer, wrote in his book the Art of Photography: the meaning of a photo liesin that we become familiar again with what we have ever been familiar with but haven’t seen clear yet.

山城，對于一直生活在這里的重慶人來說，再熟悉不過。同時，對于山城的認知也許是模糊的、片面的。我們并沒有真正看清楚山城，沒看到它點滴的成長過程，積蓄的力量，綻放的生機。關(guān)于城市的故事，攝影師是有發(fā)言權(quán)的。我們可以透過羅大萬照片中鏡像的思考，探究真實山城變遷的故事，喚起山城人記憶深處關(guān)于這座城市最清晰的記憶和最昂揚的姿態(tài)。

For people who have been living here in Chongqing, this mountain city is nothing but familiar. Meanwhile, the perception of it may be vague or one-sided. We neither really discern this mountain city,nor see its growth process bit by bit, the accumulation of power or blooming vitality. Aboutits stories, the photographer has something to say. We can think them through the photos of Luo Dawan,exploring the real mountain city changes and evoking the depths memory of the mountain people on the city's most clear memory and the most high-spirited attitude.

在羅大萬的這些新老照片的對比中，正訴說著一個城市發(fā)展的故事。

In the comparison of these old and new photographs, they are narrating stories of Chongqing development.

化龍橋天地湖，站在玻璃廊橋上，羅大萬還能清晰記起這里在舊城改造前，曾經(jīng)是一片破舊的居民房。鏡頭里曾經(jīng)雜亂破舊的化龍橋，現(xiàn)在有了一個新名字：重慶IBD（國際商務區(qū)）。會仙樓曾經(jīng)是解放碑最高的建筑，如今，會仙樓原址上拔地而起的是320米高的重慶環(huán)球金融中心……

About the Hualong Bridge Tiandi Lake,standing on the glass bridge, Luo Dawan has a distinct recollection of where was once dilapidated residential rooms before the transformation of the old city. The Hualong Bridge in the lens has been messy, while at present it has a new name: IBD(International Business District). Huixian Building was once the highest building in Jiefangbei, but now 320 meter-high Chongqing World Financial Center has sprung up on the original site of the Huixian Building.

城市的故事還在繼續(xù)，羅大萬也一直背著他的相機。仰望拔地而起的高樓大廈,俯瞰古色古香的傳統(tǒng)街區(qū)，崛起的城市在鏡頭中的線條聚集，色塊相交，構(gòu)成了一幅幅“自然山水之美”“城市形態(tài)之美”的優(yōu)美畫卷。

The story of the city is still on the road and Luo Dawan will never put down his camera. Looking up to the high-rise buildings and overlooking the antique traditional blocks, this rising city lines up in the lens with the intersection of colors, which constitute perfect pictures of"natural beauty of the landscape"and"the beauty of urban figure" .
