Rückkehr nach Luftspiegelung

▲ Mr. Chang's work "Escape from North Korea" published on "National Geographic Magazine" Feb. 2009.

I met a member of Magnum Photos this week. The man is Mr. Chien-Chi Chang, a international professional photojournalist. He came to visit our General Manager, V, on the day before yesterday. V introduced Mr. Chang to me. I felt excited. I've never thought I have chance to contact Magnum Photos, world's No.1 photo agency, before. It's well-known that every member of Magnum Photos has unique wonderful legendary story, like heroes of photography Henri Cartier-Bresson and Robert Capa.

Mr. Chang brought his lastest works to us. As above, "Escape from North Korea" is one of his works. The topic is published on "National Geographic Magazine" Feb. 2009 (國家地理雜誌二月號、英文版與國際中文版同步刊載). This documentary photo gallery is very deep thought. The story tells how people illegally get access from North Korea to South Korea.

Words by Tom O'Neill. Here is the full article. And here is Mr. Chang's photo gallery.

（在此簡介當期內容：北韓人民逃亡到南韓，地理位置雖然只是短短一小步，但逃亡者卻是往中國南進、香港、東南亞、再向北折回中國沿海岸，最後到達自由之地－南韓。長達2000哩的路程，沿路不斷被盤查，他們是如何越過難關？）

Mr. Chang shared his experience. According to some interviews by other media. He used Leica M6 and Summicron 35/2. "Film is very charming." he said.
