早在两千年前，成群的骆驼商队就已络绎不绝地沿着丝绸之路，奔波往返于欧、亚大陆之间。在这条商旅不绝的古道上，此起彼落的驼铃声，不但提醒著人们这些商队的存在，更谱写了无数的史诗篇章。他们从中国将丝绸、茶、陶瓷和其他贵重物品运送到千英里之外的欧洲。在回程的路上，他们也将香料、新发明和宗教传入了中国。随着时间的推移，这条古老的丝绸之路逐渐发展成篷勃的贸易网络。不过，尽管″丝绸之路″成为具有独特历史意义的贸易路线，它也为东西方两个世界，提供了传播文化和思想的机会。

住在美国佛罗里达州的野生鸟类艺术摄影师刘奋强(Frank Liu)，最近用镜头捕捉了一只雄性大白鹭在一棵橡树上精彩的舞蹈演出。这只英俊的大白鹭，像仙子下凡般，穿着华丽的羽衣，有节奏地扭动着轻盈的身体，挥洒着美丽的羽毛，在林子里翩翩起舞，希望用其优美的舞姿来引起异性的注意。随着它身体的上下起伏，它的头有时会慢慢地低下来，忽然间又会猛然抬起，将喙指向天空。在这个过程中，它让自己长长的颈子弯曲成一个优美的S形，同时将它美丽的羽毛完全打开，仿佛在骄傲地告诉世界″注视着我″。刘奋强，一位热衷于观察野生动物尤其是乌类的摄影师，有幸在树下欣赏到这段美丽的演出，他随即迅速用他的尼康相机摄取到这个稍纵即逝的珍贵时刻。
