在《就地游走2：柏林》中，洛杉矶摄影师Mike Slack对他的独立系列书的**本书《就地游走1：新奥尔良》的主题进行了引人深思的扩展。在漫步大易城（Big Easy）的过程中，他将建筑手势、猫咪、植物和街道上的短时效物品拼凑在一起，构成了一段有趣的对话，所有这些都是以这座**城市特有的几乎不可能实现的鲜艳色彩来渲染的，而他在德国首都的闲逛则闪烁着一种非常不同的颜色、语法和哲学色彩。这不是一本关于自行车座位、野蛮主义建筑、树叶和瓢虫的书。相反，《就地游走2：柏林》和前作一样，是关于看这一简单行为，以及它与我们的外在和内在自我的关系。

In Walking in Place 2: Berlin, Los Angeles-

based photographer Mike Slack offers a meditative, if not psychic, expansion on the threads underpinning the first title in his series of standalone books, Walking in Place 1: New Orleans. While his meanderings through the Big Easy saw him piece together a playful dialogue of architectural gestures, cats, flora and street ephemera – all rendered in the almost impossibly vibrant hues unique to the famed city – his strolls through the German capital shimmer with a very different palette, syntax and philosophic hue. Here, deep foliage, fungus and soft, refracted European light assuage concrete, steel and geometrics – as if the grand themes of the picturesque and the sublime were shrunken to microcosmic proportions. But this sequence of images defies its individual referents; this is not a book about bike seats, brutalist buildings, leaves and ladybugs. Rather, Walking in Place 2, like its predecessor, is about the simple act of seeing, and its relationship to both our outer and inner selves. Amidst the golden light, greenery and oblique built environment of Berlin, Slack – led by little but the specificity of awareness – renders a world that is uniquely his own. From a sea of background noise, a quality of light and a sensibility of mind awaken us to moments bordering on reverie.
