马赛马拉国家公园，面积1600平方公里，是肯尼亚最大的野生动物保护区，被称为“野生动物的天堂”。

摄影家的影像处处体现出敏锐的观察和瞬间的灵感，充满动物生活的意趣和抽象图式的魅力。

我们感到自然的神奇，感到与这些动物相伴的世界是多么的美好。

但是，即使在欣赏这些佳作的时候心中也总有一种隐隐的不安。生态危机的阴云正在渐渐地笼罩地球，而非洲正是事态最严重的区域之一。

野生动物对于我们已经非常的陌生和遥远，虽然我们知道它们的一切与人类息息相关。

不论是表现世间的美好，还是出于内心的不安，这些影像都会吸引我们的目光，引起我们的共鸣，让我们一起追寻生命的意义。

We feel the magic of the nature, how wonderful and fascinating this world is with these animals.

However, there is always a faint feeling of unease in enjoying these masterpieces. The dark cloud of the ecological crisis is gradually encircling the Earth, and Africa is one of the most troubled areas.

The wild animals are most strange and distant to us, although we all acknowledge that that everything of them is closely related to human beings. Whether it is to show the beauty of the world, or out of inner anxiety, these images will attract our attention and arouse our resonance so that we can search for the meaning together.
