我周游世界，捕捉人類(lèi)文明的結(jié)構(gòu)和混亂

I'm a Canadian/Dutch photographer named Ryan Koopmans. Even though I'm well established and published across the world, I've never made a photography book. Until now, at least. My book "Vantage" explores the earth’s man-made structures, surreal architecture, and megacities, evoking the insight and intrigue experienced from a traveling photographer’s perspective. I took these high-definition photos from cranes, planes, hills, and mountains, yet I preferred not to use a drone. It's because drones don't offer the control and the quality that I like to have for my pictures.

我是加拿大/荷蘭攝影師，名叫瑞安·庫(kù)普曼斯。盡管我在世界各地都有很好的聲譽(yù)，也發(fā)表過(guò)作品，但我從來(lái)沒(méi)有寫(xiě)過(guò)一本攝影書(shū)。至少到目前為止是這樣。我的書(shū)《Vantage》探索了地球上的人造建筑、超現(xiàn)實(shí)主義建筑和超大城市，喚起了一個(gè)旅行攝影師的視角所體驗(yàn)到的洞察力和好奇心。我從起重機(jī)、飛機(jī)、山丘和山脈上拍攝了這些高清照片，但我不喜歡使用無(wú)人機(jī)。因?yàn)闊o(wú)人機(jī)不能提供我想要的控制和拍攝質(zhì)量。

I've been collecting the material for the book for over 10 years. As you'd imagine, it takes a lot of time and money to travel across the globe. I took these photographs in Kazakhstan, China, Russia, Iraq, Brazil, USA, UK, the Netherlands, Singapore, Hong Kong, Georgia, Ukraine, Spain, Sweden, Canada, Dubai, Malaysia, and many other places. The aesthetic and the style of the architecture differs from place to place, though what's common in all of them is the astonishing grand scale and the emerging patterns of decay and growth inside cities. The shots vary from panoramic views to pattern-like close-ups of buildings and shapes of structures, to solemn constructions standing in contrast with nature.

我收集這本書(shū)的素材已經(jīng)有10多年了。你可以想象到，環(huán)游世界需要花費(fèi)大量的時(shí)間和金錢(qián)。我在哈薩克斯坦、中國(guó)、俄羅斯、伊拉克、巴西、美國(guó)、英國(guó)、荷蘭、新加坡、香港、格魯吉亞、烏克蘭、西班牙、瑞典、加拿大、迪拜、馬來(lái)西亞等地拍攝了這些照片。建筑的美學(xué)和風(fēng)格因地而異，盡管它們的共同點(diǎn)是驚人的宏大規(guī)模和城市內(nèi)部正在出現(xiàn)的衰敗和增長(zhǎng)模式。這些鏡頭從全景到建筑物的模式特寫(xiě)和結(jié)構(gòu)的形狀，到與自然形成對(duì)比的莊嚴(yán)建筑，不一而足。

In short, I hope that this 10-years-worth collection of astonishing structures and awe-inspiring landscapes will have something for everybody's liking. If you're interested in checking out my complete book, the link is down below.

簡(jiǎn)而言之，我希望這10年來(lái)令人驚嘆的建筑和令人敬畏的景觀能讓每個(gè)人都喜歡。如果你有興趣看看我的全集，鏈接在下面。
