In this world, each of us is a seeker of light, searching for direction in the rhythm of daily life.
“Night Song” was born from such feelings. This book is divided into three chapters, each focusing on a different aspect of urban life: the distance between people, the changes within our inner worlds, and the quiet growth of hope and connection in solitude. The first chapter, “Solitude,” explores the personal growth and reflection found in being alone, as well as the subtle moments of warmth we encounter. The second chapter, “Trajectory,” traces the footsteps of those who persist in pursuing dreams and meaning in everyday life. The third chapter, “Glimmer,” uses light and shadow as a metaphor, exploring how we find illumination, brighten our own lives with small sparks, and bring warmth to others.
This book is a record of urban solitude. In the interplay of light and shadow, those who walk alone through the city’s noise, or quietly hold fast to themselves, reveal a warm portrait of modern souls searching for themselves and yearning for connection. I hope this photography brings you warmth and courage on your own journey. Because of you, my journey has become gentle and meaningful. May this book be a gentle song for you, and may it light up your nights.
Yang Hong is a photographer whose journey began at fourteen, inspired by a rangefinder camera gifted by his father. He later honed his craft by studying traditional darkroom and film techniques at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York, and deepened his understanding of early photographic art through daguerreotype studies at the Penumbra Foundation.
在這個世界，每個人都是追光者，在平凡的生活中努力尋找屬於自己的方向。
《夜曲》正是在這樣的背景下誕生。《夜曲》分為三輯，聚焦於都市中人與人之間的距離、個體的內心世界變化，以及在孤獨中悄然生長的希望與連結。第一輯「獨行」，展現了個人獨處中的成長與自省，以及溫暖的小確幸。第二輯「軌跡」，記錄每個人在日常生活中堅持夢想、追尋意義的足跡。第三輯「星」，以光影為載體，探討如何發現光亮，用微光點亮生活、用微光溫暖他人。
這本書，是對城市孤獨的記錄與思考。光影裡，那些在喧囂中獨行、在孤獨中堅守自我的身影，呈現現代人追尋自我、渴望連結的溫暖心靈圖景。希望這些影像，能為在生活中負重前行的你，帶來溫暖的陪伴和繼續前行的勇氣。正是因為有你，我的這段旅程才如此溫柔而有意義。願這本書，能夠在你獨行的黑暗中，奏響一段溫暖的夜曲。
