來回攀登之間: 在極限中誕生的照片

內容簡介

內容簡介 獲金像獎導演的國家地理頻道攝影師，冒著生命危險拍攝七大洲的絕美景色！恐懼，更加強烈；敬畏，更加深切。憑《赤手登峰》榮獲奧斯卡最佳紀錄長片的導演金國威，身兼世界頂級的攀登者，把攝影與攀登結合成一門學問，將眾多杳無人跡之地，生死攸關之時，以及當今世上最傑出的一批攀登者，呈現到我們面前，並以文字分享他如何在不可能的條件下捕捉到驚人畫面的幕後細節。從未有人爬上的冰岩險峰、地球上最純淨的雪原、在大岩壁上用不可能的方式克服地心引力，遠征最深及最遠的沙漠……近二十年來，他在這些荒野中邊攀邊拍，在不斷超越之中塑造了自己。每張照片，都成為他堅毅、刻苦成長的見證，揭示他如何從僅僅只是熱愛登山的人，躍身成攀登界與電影界的巨星。在極限之高海拔按下快門，要考慮和承受的與平地截然不同。拍攝連同探險裝備可達九十公斤，期間要設法保持行進速度；當同伴在危險的岩壁上攀登，爭分奪秒的拍攝還伴隨著可能目擊死亡的壓力；再往上六十公尺足以見證人類踏入未知之境時，卻要想著怎麼活著回去。掀開書頁，有觸目驚心的陡壁、如異星的地景，還可以看到當代最傑出的攀登者，如何尋找世界上最蠻荒的地方，並奉獻自己的生命，拓展人類意志及生理的極限。這些故事，是關於人類的潛能，也關於友誼、夥伴關係，有時甚至關於失敗，以及不盡然總能成功登頂的行動。我們去冒險，是在力圖定義生命。平安回來時，我們將領會大自然的力量，以及這股力量如何影響我們的日常生活。我們希望從旅程中得到一絲絲的自我認識。── 康拉德．安克（Conrad Anker）本中文書介出自《來回攀登之間: 在極限中誕生的照片》大家出版The Academy Award–winning director of Free Solo and National Geographic photographer presents the first collection of his iconic adventure photography, featuring some of the greatest moments of the most accomplished climbers and outdoor athletes in the world, and including more than 200 extraordinary photographs. “An extraordinary work of art.”—Jon KrakauerFilmmaker, photographer, and world-class mountaineer Jimmy Chin goes where few can follow to capture stunning images in death-defying situations. There and Back draws from his breathtaking portfolio of photographs, captured over twenty years during cutting-edge expeditions on all seven continents—from skiing Mount Everest, to an unsupported traverse of Tibet’s Chang Tang Plateau on foot, to first ascents in Chad’s Ennedi Desert and Antarctica’s Queen Maud Land.Along the way, Chin shares behind-the-scenes details about how he captured such astounding images in impossible conditions, and tells the stories of the legendary adventurers and remarkable athletes he has photographed, including Alex Honnold, the star of his Academy Award–winning documentary film Free Solo; ski mountaineer Kit DesLauriers; snowboarder Travis Rice; and mountaineers Conrad Anker and Yvon Chouinard. These larger-than-life images, coupled with stories of outsized drive and passion, of impossible goals with life or death stakes, of partnerships forged through incredible hardship, are sure to inspire wonder and awe."
