優秀藝術作品的妙諦不在繁複，而在單純；不在雜多，而在齊一。

－何藩《街頭攝影叢談》

The essence of outstanding artworks is not complexity but simplicity, not multiplicity but wholeness.

沒有一種藝術媒介能像攝影那樣表現得十足肖妙自然，精確逼真，一成不變。

No medium of art can express and deliver like photography — strikingly natural, accurate and realistic.

《日暮途遠》“As Evening Hurries By”

in ,

「日暮途遠」是兼具氣氛與畫意的典例。
— 何藩《街頭攝影叢談》
"As Evening Hurries By" is an exemplary work of depicting both moody ambience and pictorial photography.
– Thoughts on Street Photography, Fan Ho

這是一片深邃幽遠的景色, 一個莊嚴肅穆的意象; 流露出悲觀哲學的感傷情懷, 正合「日暮途遠, 人間何世」的愴凉境界。此乃作者對現實世界通過凝神觀照, 達到心物交融的「畫境」時, 凝固了具有永恒性之一瞬間的畫意作品。— 何藩《街頭攝影叢談》 This is a heartfelt scenery with a gloomy background and a solemn imagery. It reveals sadness from one’s pessimism and sentimentalism which matches precisely the mood of desolation in “As Evening Hurries By, ……”. The artist, through intense contemplation of the physical world, had achieved a "pictorial realm" of amalgamated heart and matter, and had immortalized a moment in time of his picturesque creation. － Thoughts on Street Photography, Fan Ho

Happy Father's Day!｜父親節快樂!

in

On the Father’s day of 2016, we were deeply saddened by Dad’s passing. The preparation of the new book and the exhibition since then has been a healing process for us. We still feel the sorrow, yet he will forever live in our hearts, and we hope our gift comes just in time on this Father’s day.

We are grateful for the support from our relatives, friends and fans of our Dad. He would have been very happy. While seeking fame and fortune was never his priority, he would have treasured Forget Me Not.

Fan Ho’s Daughter and Son

2016年的父親節對我們來説是一個悲痛的日子，因爸爸就在那天離開了。這一年來準備新書及相展的工作是我們治療傷痛的旅程，今天雖仍感不捨，但覺得爸爸活在我們的心中，亦希望爸爸喜歡我們今年給他的父親節禮物。

萬分感謝各位親友及支持者對爸爸一直的擁䕶，爸爸一定感到欣慰。他從沒有冀求名成利就，只願大家「毋忘我」。
