中秋节那天,我们的外拍活动按计划上午去了芦墟镇。这是一座难得还没被完全商业化的古镇,这里少有喧嚣的商业化气氛与精致的网红打卡点,却多了些本地人生活的烟火气。河道、古桥、小商店、老房子、仍然居住在这里的人,似乎让时间在此放慢了脚步,走街串巷之间,我总会想起许多过去的时光。

我先把 EOS 50 相机里以前拍剩下的胶卷拍完,大约拍了20多张,然后换上 Sony RX1R II 继续拍摄。芦墟镇比我想象中大,到我们按计划离开时,还没有完全走完。我想,有机会的话,下次还会再来。

这篇是用索尼 Rx1R2 拍摄的数码版,胶卷版等冲扫出来后再接着上。

On the Mid-Autumn Festival, our photo walk took us to Luxu Ancient Town in the morning as planned. It is one of those old towns that has not yet been completely commercialized. There are few noisy commercial streets or carefully designed social-media photo spots. Instead, there is a stronger sense of everyday local life.

The waterways, old bridges, small shops, old houses, and the people who still live here seem to slow time down. As I walked through the streets and along the waterways, I often found myself thinking about many moments from the past.

I first finished the remaining film in my EOS 50, shooting a little over twenty frames, and then switched to the Sony RX1R II. Luxu turned out to be larger than I had expected, and by the time we left as planned, we still had not explored the whole town. I would like to come back again when I have the chance.

This is the digital version of the walk, photographed with the Sony RX1R II. The film version will follow after the roll has been developed and scanned.

走到这里时,被大树伸展出的浓密树荫、河道、石阶和伸出的石墩组成的优美画面吸引,忍不住按下了快门。
