薛琮憲 ( Xue ) 高雄人，住在只要花十分鐘走路就可以到海邊的地方，目前在台北熬日子。畫畫是在還不認識顏色名字的時候就開始的事，後來唸了一些學校，沒長什麼知識，卻養出自己一套任性的認知。學過平面設計，看到喜歡的風景也會拍下來，寫一點長相不標緻的字。如果可以知道自己明天要做什麼的話，那我就能去當星座專家。

什麼活動讓人甘願長跑五公里，並且一邊跑一邊被彩色顏料攻擊還喜不自勝？ The Color Run™大概會是這個夏天，除了音樂季以外，風靡整個台灣的健康活動！從2012 年一月開始，第一個正式的Color Run在亞利桑那州的鳳凰城展開，創辦人Travis Snyder 是三項全能運動員與路跑狂熱者，他希望能創造一個不具威脅性、有趣的環境，讓專業與非專業的跑者能跑在一起，享受這項運動的純粹。 2012年，The Color Run™已經跑遍美國的五十個大城與三個國際城市，共有六十萬人次的參加者，其中六成以上的跑者竟然是第一次跑5k的長度！可見The Color Run™的魅力實在無人可擋，太好玩了！幕後黑手Travis Snyder說：「我們每天都在Facebook上收到上百個留言，希望能在他們的城市舉辦The Color Run™，這實在是讓人太興奮了！這是一個鼓勵人們走出去、跑起來，享受著和人們一起跑的有趣運動，同時加入了釋放心情的彩色顏料，讓整個活動變成城市裡最顯眼的亮點！」 The Color Run™就要來台灣了，到時可能不只湧出一堆喜愛馬拉松的人，也會湧出一堆熱愛夏天的年輕人，還有數以千計的攝影愛好者喔！ The Color Run™活動官網： http://thecolorrun.com/

What kind of event makes you run 5 kilometers, hits you with bursts of color dye, and makes you smile at the end of it all? The Color Run™ is perhaps the most anticipated event for Taiwan this summer. The run is an unique paint race that celebrates healthiness, happiness, individuality, and giving back to the community. It first began in January of 2012 in Phoenix, Arizona. Founder Travis Snyder is a triathlete and avid runner; he wanted to create an event that was fun and non-competitive so that both amateur and professional athletes can run together for the mere love of the sport. In 2012, The Color Run™ was held in over 50 cities across the U.S; Out of the 600,000 participants, over 60% of the Color Runners were first time 5K runners. Travis Snyder says that each day on Facebook they receive hundreds of messages asking for The Color Run™ to come to their city. "It’s exciting because the run has become a positive way for people to come out and bring together friends and family in a unique, healthy, and fun environment". The Color Run™ is soon coming to Taiwan and we’re positive that it will not only attract marathon runners and athletes from all over the island, but it will also be packed with thousands of adrenaline-filled youth, photographers, and life enthusiasts.

42公里的一些事馬拉松，42公里，這項看似不可思議的運動，漸漸成為潮流，就算跑不完，我們也想穿上跑步鞋和整套裝備追下流行，Abook 在本期的主題之下，想到了歐陽靖。幾年前，她飽受鬱症之擾，幾年後，她跑完了人生第一個42公里馬拉松，由她來擔任馬拉松的推手，應該沒有誰更有說服力了。

LSD訓練馬拉松的其中一種訓練叫做 LSD( Long Slow Distance) ，長距離、慢速，比如說跑30公里不限時間，是一種訓練肺活量的方法。馬拉松的練習是為了讓身體習慣持續的運動消耗，如果不能讓身體輕鬆的跑完半馬 21公里，是不能去跑全馬的，會有些危險，也可能簡短身體運動的壽命。

飲食馬拉松的飲食跟一般運動的飲食不同，一般運動講求攝取蛋白質，但馬拉松是一種極限運動，已經超越人體可以承受的

The 42K A 42K marathon is no easy task. Those who can complete it are showered with compliments and bathe in sweat and glory; those who cannot finish have fun anyway, partaking in the latest sporting trend and showing off their new running gear. With our theme for this issue, we thought whom better to interview than the lovely Gin Oy who is a model/actress who has recently completed her first 42K marathon. Oy has openly suffered from depression for many years, but she candidly sits down with us to tell us how she has overcome her struggles and how her life has changed through running.

eters with no time limit is a way to train your lungs for extended exercise. An important part of marathon training is to get your body used to continued energy exertion. If you cannot train your body to run a half marathon with ease, it would be dangerous to attempt a full marathon. Nutrition Most athletes focus on protein intake. However in marathon running, carbohydrates intake is much more crucial. Glycogen acts as energy storage and thus when you are running for a long time your body needs starch and sugars. Some runners will resort to “carbohydrate loading” which means eating a lot of bread, rice, or carbohydrates before a run. Increasing your calorie intake after a marathon can also ease pain and soreness. Sport Suitable for Women Running a marathon allows you to burn approximately 2000 calories. Women tend to have strong will power,

摄影师专访

镜头的呼吸律动

有人說她的鏡頭有些悲傷，有人說她的鏡頭會呼吸，你可以從他的作品開始認識她，在看過電影九降風、花吃了那女孩、消失打看之後，大概就能感覺到她獨樹一格的運鏡與視覺語言。從平面到動態攝影，她以生活中的感受作為養分，總是很用心的想要拍下自己腦海中的風景，她是一雙細膩的眼睛，她是余靜萍。

開始攝影的契機？

現在數位的技術變得便利許多，但會影響到拍攝前期的完整度，現在會很依賴後期，拍照變得不太肯定了，「反正之後進電腦再

小時候讀的是美工科，總是被要求照本宣科地練畫工，要耐著性

子一筆一筆去畫，對我來說實在很無趣，那時候愛上了暗房，

時間變短了，快的結果就是壓力變小了，輕鬆很多，各有利弊。

每天都很期待看顯影這件事，比起慢慢的畫畫，瞬間從無到有的感覺非常吸引我。後來漸漸覺得自己洗出來的照片很醜，才發現

拍攝現場的控制？

自己都沒有好好拍照，便開始觀察光線，開始好好思考拍照這件事。

拍攝的時候，我的速度應該是慢的，不太會去急，因為知道自己被拍也是會不自在，在拍人的時候就會這樣想，會將心比心的態

第一台相機？

度去想像要怎麼拍這個人，節奏不太會去設定，以前出外景一定要帶音響，有了音樂工作就會有節奏，以前的音樂都好好聽，現

第一台相機是Nikon FM2配標準鏡。我好像不太受到器材的控制，

在音樂太多種了反而很難選。

開始工作後拍了兩年，用的一直都是定焦鏡，到後來相機已經和自己融為一體，一看到景就知道要用哪一顆鏡頭，知道鏡頭

培養拍照的感覺？

可以留下或是去掉哪些畫面。後來陸續買了F3和F4，都用來拍工作的東西，直到有一天被客戶要求要有中片幅的機器，才去買了

別人，消化變成自己的養分。比如說有次我要拍陶子，她雖然不是那種公認的美女，但她有自己的韻味，我當時就想到二零年代

關於底片？

很優雅慵懶氣質的女人形象，很適合她，所以要去分析觀察被攝者，突顯他們的優點。

因為以前是MV導演黃中平的助理，當時他可以定到很多種類的底片，也需要測試各種不同的效果，所以我們幾乎每天都在作實

拍照前我一定會做功課，甚至會跟造型師去挑衣服，看布料、顏

可以接觸到所有的底片，並瞭解可以得到的效果，實在很好玩。

現在的底片越來越穩定，幾乎都要正沖負才能增感，不像以前用

朋友。有時候要了解一個人並不容易，可能從工作上也無法瞭解

底片拍總是可以得到很多驚喜。

到全面，每一個人的都有自己的優點，只是要看怎麼去發現。

以前用底片工作的時候很好玩，男助理都很愛比賽誰換底片比較

現在的人工作上可能比較懶惰，選擇比較安全的方式工作，盡量

快，甚至化妝師也會來幫忙換底片。拍底片的另一個好處，就是

拍得漂亮就好，但當時我會想很多，希望照片中是有想法的，提

換片的短短時間裡，可以讓被攝者喘口氣，我也可以用這個時間

出很多想法去討論，去思考印象中的東西，與想像中的東西，我

作更多溝通。

們的工作無法跟生活切開，光線構圖什麼的，都可從生活中的觀察知道，並且找到靈感，好好生活，多看東西是很重要的。

喜歡的書籍？

非常適合拍某個人，這個投射會讓人明白為什麼要這裡拍，為什麼要這樣拍等等。

現在最喜歡的雜誌是Kinfolk，很生活，很全面，以前很喜歡i-D或是義大利版的Vogue，但現在反而沒什麼感覺，更喜歡生活的東西。

我曾經在巴黎生活，當時在那當學生的壓力很大，樂趣不太多，

家裡的藏書只能用「恐怖」二字形容，以前一個月可以花兩萬塊

所以我常常在路上找到一個路人，就悄悄跟著他回家，不僅可以

去買書，把賺來的錢都花光，我大概對印刷品有莫名的迷戀，覺

發現另一條路，還可以找到自己的路回家，一邊思考走在巴黎街

得有些書就是該買回家而不只是在網路上找找資料而已。

上的人都在想什麼，變成一個難得的體驗。

平面轉動態的拍攝，視覺上的思考模式有何不同？

滿足感很大的作品？

目前還在消化動態的工作過程，對我來說動態和平面的攝影，差

其實每部片拍完都很高興，因為工作的過程讓我獲得很多，不會

別像是長篇小說和短篇小說，動態大多都是執行面上的落差，很

有職業倦怠，單純以攝影來講都是開心的，都會有成長和檢討。

拍片過程中，有時候燈光師會跑來跟我說：「你看這個光很美。」那時就會很開心，拍片的每一個人都是智慧，包括演員、導

旅行與攝影？

演、燈光、場務，可以學習的事情好多，可以偷別人的智慧，但是拍平面就像是在被偷東西的感覺（笑）。

處在一個不熟悉的環境裡，會有很多感受，去探究為什麼這樣的環境自己會喜歡，是不是因為光線？還是氣味？都可以趁機觀

From photography to videography, she aims to capture the scenery and landscape so beautifully concocted in her mind. She is a pair of exquisite eyes; she is Fisher Yu.

一场棒球经典赛可以让几千万个意志同时期盼一件事，制造一种巨大的气场，除了运动竞赛之外，好像没有其他梗，可以凝聚这些人的团结心情了。想像在古希腊时代，人们在祭坛前向神灵奉献最精湛的技艺，显示躯体和精神的健美。创造奥运会的古希腊人有着能穿越时光的青春胴体，他们迷恋肌理线条、迷恋强健的意志，雕塑身体似乎是他们生命中最重要的事。现代奥运之父皮耶德．古柏坦（Pierre de Coubertin）曾说：「奥运会动重要的不是胜利而是参与，生活的本质不是索取而是奋斗。」无论是不是锻炼身体的运动比赛，技艺的竞争能够激起斗志，在肾上腺素直冲脑门的瞬间，发挥人类极限的爆发力。除了瑜珈，马拉松在女性选择的体育活动当中，开始成为一种风潮与文化，女性也渐渐藉由运动中获得的释放与成就感来肯定自己。 Abook这次要把这身体与精神的极限美影像化，请来加入我们。

A baseball game can attract millions of fans, all anticipating and cheering for the same thing. Sports seem to have this unique ability to unify a large group of people, all joined together in mind, body, and spirit. The ancient Greeks focused on religious worship and laid emphasis on physical skill and mental fitness. As creators of the Olympic Games, they seemed to have been fascinated with the human anatomy and the strengths of the body. Like founder of the International Olympic Committee Pierre de Coubertin once said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;the most important thing in the Olympic Games is not winning but taking part; the essential thing in life is not conquering but fighting well.â&#x20AC;? No matter what type of sport or competition, the human limit can be stretched as adrenaline and human will power take over. Besides yoga, more and more women are starting to run and join marathons. Women are slowly discovering the way in which sports can help them with their self- esteem and find their place in life. Please join us as we personify the beauty of mind and spirit and celebrate the power of athletics and competition!
