The Opposite Side of Monet’s Garden
莫奈花園的對面

Is that drawing? Is that light or shadow? That is just the colour paste!

​

Perhaps out of misapprehension, people flock to see Monet’s Waterlilies without knowing why, and, blindsided by its superficial lights and shadows, its colours, and its accolades, end up missing The Opposite Side of the Monet’s Garden in the process. Photography is, in this regard, direct and upfront, but it can also leave us with a certain impression that may season reality with poetry.

那是畫嗎？ 那是光還是影？ 那只是顏料！

​

人們或許不太明白，才會惚惚而行，像遊人慕名前去觀看莫奈筆下的荷花，為了那印象的表象光影、顏料和讚歎，而錯過了《莫奈花園的對面》。攝影就是那麼的直接，能留給人若干印象，可為現實提供如許詩意。
