postcards in black and white / 黑白明信片

攝於八里‧台北

台北不是個羅曼蒂克的城市,美麗的角落屈指可數,卻被那麼多離開的人想念著。

Taipei is far from a romantic city. Nor does it deserve the compliment of being beautiful. Yet it is missed by many of those who have left.

想找一張明信片寄給你,安撫你對家的渴望,選擇黑白色調,就像台北在你的回憶裡,表面上有些塵埃散落,心情有點惆悵,底下卻是無止盡的思念。

I want to send you a postcard to sooth your aching longing for home. Taipei in black and white, like the city in your memory, is scattered with some dust on the surface. The two colors so perfectly reflect your nostalgia for every detail about your somewhat ugly yet terribly warm hometown.

time lag:就算是黑白色調的台北,還是很美啊,沒辦法,我就是有台北優越感.
