自拍杆弱爆了! 國外妹子隨身帶茶壺拍照!

While a falling leaf is indicative of the approaching autumn and a wild flower can be the epitome of heaven, a photographer from Michigan has transformed a humble tea kettle into a vessel reflecting the beauty she encounters on her journey through life.

一葉落而天下知秋，一花開則世間見微。一位來自密歇根的攝影師用一個平凡的茶壺記錄下其生命旅程中的美好瞬間。

Instead of resorting to phones or selfie sticks, Esha Biswas has chosen to record the most memorable moments in her life - including her graduation ceremony - by taking selfies reflected on the shiny surface of a metal kettle.

不用手機，也不用自拍杆，伊莎·比斯瓦斯利用金屬茶壺的鏡面來記錄下生活中最珍貴的時刻，這其中就包括她的大學畢業典禮。

"I was fascinated by the way the kettle stretched and transformed the world around me; it seemed to contain a whole little world inside of it, with my figure always at the center of the globe," Biswas told My Modern Met, a US-based photography website.

比斯瓦斯告訴美國知名攝影網站My Modern Met:：“茶壺鏡面將周遭世界的影像拉伸、變形，我對此深感着迷；彷彿它裏面還包藏着一個小小的世界，而我總處在中心位置。”。

The unconventional photographer has taken over 30 selfies over four years in an attempt to record the world around her in the polychrome globe. And she's not finished yet – “The Tea Kettle Adventures” is an ongoing project.

不走尋常路的攝影師比斯瓦斯，爲記錄周遭多彩的世界，在過去四年間已自拍30多張。而且，她並不準備到此爲止--“茶壺奇遇”還將繼續。

From her dorm in the University of Michigan to the exotic boulevards of Paris in France, the kettle that always accompanies her provides a kaleidoscope lens displaying her thrilling life experiences.

從密歇根的大學宿舍到法國巴黎的林蔭大道，茶壺始終相伴左右，記錄下她多姿多彩的生活。

Reflecting miscellaneous scenes featuring flaming red leaves, snow-bound paths, flourishing flowers and a sparkling Christmas tree, the kettle has become much more than a household appliance, instead acting as a multi-dimensional blotter engraved with numerous slices of daily life.

火紅的葉片、白雪皚皚的小徑、絢爛的花朵以及閃閃發光的聖誕樹...茶壺記錄下各式各樣的美好事物，如同一份多維度記錄冊，載入無數的生活片影，早已不是一枚普通的家居用品了。

Through the photos, Biswas hopes to "urge people to look more closely at the world around them - even if it means looking at a pot of tea."

比斯瓦斯希望她的照片能夠“呼籲人們更加關注身邊的世界--即使一壺茶也有它的精彩。”

She added that even familiar places like bedrooms and backyards can become perfect spots for photography as long as we endeavor to discover frivolous beauty in our sometimes prosaic lives.

她還表示，只要我們善於在平淡的生活中發現細微的美麗，即使像臥室、後院這樣很熟悉的地方，也可以成爲拍照的絕美場景。
