Broadway, New York City

Cutting a swath of lights from the tip of Manhattan, Broadway beckons to the star struck like a blazing theater marquee—as it has for decades. The Broadway of the 1980s, captured in these photographs, included a sometimes seedy side.

The steamy diversions on Broadway’s Times Square area provoke bored yawns from native Manhattanites who have seen it all.

意译：主标题：――百老汇――纽约市。

在曼哈顿的高楼上射出一道道光束，百老汇召唤明星的到来，当年百老汇像一个闪耀的剧院大篷车――又经历十年，到1980年摄影许多的图片，不时拿来观赏。

当我们转移到时代广场，见到那些人：有激怒的、挑拨的、无聊的、打呵欠的都是一些曼

哈顿的本地人，他们已经见过一切。

Suntanned p atrons at the patio bar of Halekulani Hotel’s House Without a Key restaurant enjoy stunning sunset views and a hula show on Oahu Island’s Waikiki

Beach.

The swaying hips and undulating arm movements of a hula dancer imitate the waves that wash over Hawaii’s shores. Hula went underground for about 60 years in the early 19th century after Christian missionaries persuaded rulers to ban the provocative dance. It is enjoying a resurgence today.

意译：主标题：怀基基海滩上举行夏威夷式宴会，夏威夷，2005年。

给太阳晒得变黑的人们，在庭院式的酒吧间，是（Halekulani）酒店的剧场，是一所不要钥匙的餐馆，人们喜欢在这里欣赏日落的景色和草群舞展览，在瓦胡岛的怀基基海滩。

那摇摆的髋部和波浪起伏的肢体运动的草群舞女，她的动作就像那夏威夷的海浪。草群舞在大约60年前十九世纪时代地下的、秘密的舞蹈，自从基督教传教士的劝说，统治者禁止这重舞蹈。今天这种舞蹈得到苏醒给人们一种享受。
