I feel like a late 20th century George Catlin, who traveled the American West painting portraits of native Americans. Armed with a camera rather than a paintbrush, I have the chance to capture Yunnan's minorities in all their happy glory, while they still feel content within their ancient cultural perimeters.
當年喬治．凱特林（George Catlin）遍遊美國西部，為美國原住民繪出一張張的畫像，我感覺自己彷彿是二十世紀末的喬治．凱特林，帶著一隻相機而非一隻畫筆，趁著雲南的少數民族仍願優游於自己的古老文明中時，記下他們飛揚的神采。
