While a falling leaf is indicative of the approaching autumn and a wild flower can be the epitome of heaven, a photographer from Michigan has transformed a humble tea kettle into a vessel reflecting the beauty she encounters on her journey through life.
一叶落而天下知秋，一花开则世间见微。一位来自密歇根的摄影师用一个平凡的茶壶记录下其生命旅程中的美好瞬间。
Instead of resorting to phones or selfie sticks, Esha Biswas has chosen to record the most memorable moments in her life - including her graduation ceremony - by taking selfies reflected on the shiny surface of a metal kettle.
不用手机，也不用自拍杆，伊莎·比斯瓦斯利用金属茶壶的镜面来记录下生活中最珍贵的时刻，这其中就包括她的大学毕业典礼。
"I was fascinated by the way the kettle stretched and transformed the world around me; it seemed to contain a whole little world inside of it, with my figure always at the center of the globe," Biswas told My Modern Met, a US-based photography website.
比斯瓦斯告诉美国知名摄影网站My Modern Met:：“茶壶镜面将周遭世界的影像拉伸、变形，我对此深感着迷；仿佛它里面还包藏着一个小小的世界，而我总处在中心位置。”。
The unconventional photographer has taken over 30 selfies over four years in an attempt to record the world around her in the polychrome globe. And she's not finished yet – “The Tea Kettle Adventures” is an ongoing project.
不走寻常路的摄影师比斯瓦斯，为记录周遭多彩的世界，在过去四年间已自拍30多张。而且，她并不准备到此为止--“茶壶奇遇”还将继续。
From her dorm in the University of Michigan to the exotic boulevards of Paris in France, the kettle that always accompanies her provides a kaleidoscope lens displaying her thrilling life experiences.
从密歇根的大学宿舍到法国巴黎的林荫大道，茶壶始终相伴左右，记录下她多姿多彩的生活。
Reflecting miscellaneous scenes featuring flaming red leaves, snow-bound paths, flourishing flowers and a sparkling Christmas tree, the kettle has become much more than a household appliance, instead acting as a multi-dimensional blotter engraved with numerous slices of daily life.
火红的叶片、白雪皑皑的小径、绚烂的花朵以及闪闪发光的圣诞树...茶壶记录下各式各样的美好事物，如同一份多维度记录册，载入无数的生活片影，早已不是一枚普通的家居用品了。
Through the photos, Biswas hopes to "urge people to look more closely at the world around them - even if it means looking at a pot of tea."
比斯瓦斯希望她的照片能够“呼吁人们更加关注身边的世界--即使一壶茶也有它的精彩。”
She added that even familiar places like bedrooms and backyards can become perfect spots for photography as long as we endeavor to discover frivolous beauty in our sometimes prosaic lives.
她还表示，只要我们善于在平淡的生活中发现细微的美丽，即使像卧室、后院这样很熟悉的地方，也可以成为拍照的绝美场景。
