Vendors Near Potala Palace

Photograph by Chu Cancan

This Month in Photo of the Day: Images From the 2008 International Photo Contest

This photo focused on vendors outside the Potala Palace in Lhasa, Tibet. Many people objected to building the Qinghai-Tibet railway as they thought the railway would change the characteristics of the holy city. The photographer believes the railway did not cause the changes to the city. This photo is part of a series taken during July 2006, before the railway went into operation, in an attempt to prove that opinion and to search for other possible causes of the changes in Lhasa.

本月每日一图的主题是：来自2008年国际摄影大赛的照片

这张照片把注意力投向了西藏拉萨布达拉宫外的小贩。许多人反对修建青藏铁路，因为他们觉得铁路会改变这座神圣城市的特色。摄影师相信铁路不会导致拉萨发生这种变化。2006年7月，青藏铁路通车前，摄影师为了证明自己的观点，并找出其它可能导致拉萨改变的原因，而拍摄了一系列的照片，这张照片便是其中的一张。
