A Place in Time
莫宇一方2

I volunteered as the photographer again for the 2009 Hope Parade. This year they decided to make this event more exciting and efficient, so the number of the participation teams was cut in half, only more well-prepared team was selected. However, due to the fame gained at the past two years, this year this event attracted a lot more crowd and more non-assigned photographers. They really made the parade hard to move along because everyone was pushing forward, and some photographers even not listening to the rule and occupying the route. After all this is another successful event, I think everyone who joined the parade had a really good time.

今年再度應邀擔任2009 世界夢想嘉年華的攝影義工。今年雖然因為主辦單位為了精簡遊行隊伍，而將參與隊伍數量減半，但是因為連續兩年舉辦而越來越知名，所以圍觀的群眾多了許多，再加上今年有個更大型的攝影比賽，也吸引了許多有興趣的攝影者，讓整個遊行變得秩序有點混亂，也有數位非工作人員的攝影者不但不聽勸（非工作人員是不可以進入遊行路線中的），還對我惡言相向，真是喧賓奪主，我和另一位同是工作人員的攝影者也只能傻眼以對了。幸好大致上尚稱秩序良好，所有參與的人員應該都有享受到這個歡慶的時刻吧。

↓Hot girls with the least dressing is always the "selling point" of the parade. 衣不蔽體的火辣女郎當然是遊行的賣點之一


↓The host's fire-spitting show is another focus spot. 主辦人的噴火秀也是焦點之一


↓A gay couple announced their wedding. 也有對同志戀人藉此宣告他們的婚禮


↓The competition between the aboriginal Samba drum team is getting extreme, many teams put on their most eye-catching costume. This is the traditional T-back pants wear by the Tao tribe on the Lanyu Island. 今年各原住民的森巴鼓隊競爭越來越激烈，多數隊伍都穿上最具代表性的服飾，這組台東來的隊伍就以蘭嶼的丁字褲吸引眾人目光。


↓This Caucasian girl's peacock costume is another attraction. 這位外國美女的孔雀裝也很吸睛


↓They had a crazy party after the parade. 遊行結束後，大家在總統府前廣場High翻天。
