台北駐舊金山辦事處-4.jpg  

吉米的作品-大甲媽祖遶境系列,登上駐舊金山台北經濟文化辦事處海外電子刊物-Taiwan Insights,這刊物是對外國人宣傳的刊物,真是感到非常榮幸,駐舊金山台北經濟文化辦事處其實就是我們的外交單位,但因美國並不承認台灣,所以只好使用駐舊金山台北經濟文化辦事處這種名義,在美國我們還有在華盛頓的駐美代表處,辦事處在舊金山、亞特蘭大、波士頓、芝加哥、關島、休士頓、檀香山、堪薩斯、洛杉磯、邁阿密、紐約、西雅圖這幾個地方都有!最近最有名的就屬駐堪薩斯辦事處的劉珊珊,我看大家還是多推一點正向的報導!

第一張圖是-Taiwan Insights所發送的電子報,最上方就是兩張吉米的作品!

接下來點電子報裡的聯結,或是直接去【Taiwan Insights】的網站,都可以直接看到吉米的【大甲媽祖】系列作品。而且還有英文介紹喔!

英文介紹如下:

Mazu Pilgrimage

Chenlan Temple in Taichung County (central Taiwan) is the island’s most famous Mazu temple. Every March, the statue of Mazu is carried out for a pilgrimage lasting up to 8 days and 7 nights. Starting from the temple, it travels 65 miles to Fengtien Temple in Chiayi County (southern Taiwan). More than 100,000 Mazu followers participate in the annual pilgrimage, one the most important religious events in Taiwan.
The days of pilgrimage are not fixed. Each year after the Lantern Festival (15 days after the Lunar New Year), the chairman of the Chenlan Temple throws the divination block to determine the pilgrimage’s departure date and time. This year, it fell on April 8. During the pilgrimage, the faithful rush to touch the golden statue of Mazu, praying for good luck.
The photos below were taken by Yang Deng-jie, otherwise known as Jimmy. Jimmy enjoys photography and traveling. From his photos, you can tell he is careful to capture a mix of local history and culture, historical buildings, people, customs and edible delights. Working as a pharmacist, Jimmy often volunteers his medical services at home and abroad. He has volunteered in the Solomon Islands, India, Sikkim, Darjeeling, Manpuri, Nepal and other destinations around the world.
