Kara Leung在美国的格斗圈里是非常有名气和人气的摄影师，在西海岸历届格斗大会中包办了三天的赛场照片，有功劳有苦劳。基本上你能看到的官方照片中，超过90%出自梁姐之手。
原帖http://www.karaface.com/2011/08/07/evolution-2011-recap/，还有很多照片，但不知道是否需要翻墙。
有空再帮各位翻译：
Over 2, 400 competitors, 44 different countries, viewed by 1.9 million different people online, over 10,000 live in attendance, all equated to the biggest Evolution to this date. This year’s Evo had a different feel than the previous ones, with the anticipation that was building up and the sheer number of foreign attendees making the trip to Las Vegas for the weekend to compete.
超过2400名参赛者、来自44个国家、190万人次在线观战以及最高超过10000人同时在线，本届EVO规模之大前所未有。今年EVO异于以往，四海好友汇聚拉斯维加斯同堂竞技。
My traveling partner this year was Taiwan’s GamerBee, with Australia’s HumanBomb joining us part of the way. Standing in line waiting to check in at the Rio All Suite Hotel, we were stopped numerous times with fans wishing GamerBee good luck, people requesting for photos and autographs. The family waiting in front of us in the check in line, turned out to have a son that was going to compete in Evo and he was really excited to meet GamerBee, in the end the whole family insisted on getting a picture with Bruce.
今年小向和我一路通行，澳大利亚的人肉炸弹半路加入了我们。在酒店排队拿房号的间隙，无数粉丝向小向求合影、签名并为小向打气。站在我前排的一家子，其中的小盆友将要参加本届EVO，对于能亲眼看到小向格外兴奋，在一家人的恳请下，小向欣然合影。
Coverage for Evolution was also at an unprecedented scale, two official streams run by IPlayWinner and Offcast, Nagoya Street Battle providing a Japanese stream, eLivePro with a French broadcast, Gamespot recording panels and general coverage of Evolution, IGN recording gameplay, G4TV conducting interviews and footage of top 8, and Shoryuken providing live updates throughout the weekend.
在线直播也前所未有多样性，iPlayWinner和Offcast负责两个主力频道，名古屋负责日本直播，eLivePro负责法国直播，Gamespot外录，IGN内录，G4TV负责采访以及八强转播，升龙拳实时文字更新。
Walking into the 60,000 square feet Rio Pavilion Convention Center before the tournament, it felt improbable that this entire space would be filled up to capacity, it was just two years ago in 2009 that Evolution was held at the same venue but with only half the space being rented out. In two years could the population and interest of the fighting game truly grow to twice the size it was before? If there was an lingering doubts after seeing the line for the Evo pre-party at Insert Coins wrap around the block, it was surely gone after the rush of gamers and individuals when the doors were open officially for the start of Evolution 2011.
走进60000平方尺的会场，我不确定这么大的会场是否能挤得满人。2009年的EVO只租了半个会场，两年来格斗游戏的玩家群能激增到两倍以至于填满浩大的会场吗？可比赛前夜的Party已经有乌央乌央的人群涌入，正式比赛的观众人数已无所可担心。
Over the course of the weekend I took over 6,000 photos, from the pre-party, tournament play, panel discussions, booths, autograph signings and more. Evolution felt like it had become more than just a tournament and a gathering point for fighting gamers, if felt as if it was becoming a convention for fighting gamers, a change that I whole-heartedly welcome. No longer is Evolution just a tournament to play until you are eliminated and then not show up again until day 2 with semi-finals on the big screen or on Championship Sunday. Now, there are panels and side-tournaments with significant prizes, such as the Hori VLX that my friend, HumanBomb, won at a FocusFire side tournament.
整个EVO进行的周末，我一共拍了超过6000张照片，EVO已脱然单纯的比赛而是将全球的格斗家汇聚一堂，是全球格斗爱好者的盛会，这也是我乐于看到的。如果第一天的淘汰赛你挂了，EVO对于你来说可能就只是个随便玩玩的比赛，但对于在决赛当天仍活下来并在众目睽睽之下挣扎的人来说，比赛是意义重大的。比赛的奖品也很丰盛，除了奖金，还有VLX这样的重量级奖品。人肉炸弹在FocusFire已赢过一个。
My personal highlight of the weekend was getting to meet Kayo Satoh, a Japanese gaming idol who plays C. Viper, albeit for brief moments as I was constantly running around trying to capture as much of Evo that I could with my lenses. It was very exciting being able to meet someone else in the community who shared the same experience of being a transgendered individual and personally she has been a very inspiring figure since her public coming out on television.
对于我个人，能和佐藤佳代见面再令人兴奋不过了。而我也在比赛过程中尽可能用镜头捕捉到佐藤的各个精彩瞬间。在格斗游戏的圈子里，有同好能分享人格以及生理上的性别转换的经验无疑是幸运的，对于佐藤敢于在电视上公开自己的秘密，其勇气令我钦佩。（某楼开口就人妖的那位盆友，梁姐对你的称谓使用很不满，或许“变性人”这样的中性词更适合于应用在公共场合。别人和你的生活习惯不一样不一定就代表错的，“人妖”对于性别认知有错位的人来说，无异于指着残疾人说“瘸子”，指着智障人士笑“傻子”，或者笑话打街霸不如你的人“手残”。说者无心听者有意，请对于和你不一样、哪怕你看不惯的特殊人群多一分谅解。）
PS:梁姐确实不是女性，为了维持女性特征不得不花费昂贵的药费，也要忍受来自家庭和社会的压力和非议，在公共场合去哪个厕所都曾让他心力交瘁，父亲和哥哥疏远他至今，只有妈妈还算比较包容——但一切一切梁姐都熬过来了。如今有了正经的工作，独立的收入来源，朋友，以及来自佐藤佳代的榜样力量。其实和佐藤比，梁姐真看不出是个男性，身材好，相貌也有气质，稍微上点妆还很漂亮，比娇媚的女性多一分独立能干，但笑起来缺少了胭脂俗粉的妖媚。本人曾不经意间用相机捕捉到梁姐非常纯的一笑，绝不是什么CJ那些卖肉的货挤得出来的。不过对于我本人，今天下午让我经历了一次人生观颠覆——梁姐竟然不是女的……[021]
Let me close this all off with some of my favorite photos from Evolution 2011 and a hope that Evolution 2012 builds upon this year and grows to be even larger and better!
最后以我千千万张之中我最喜欢的几张照片做收尾，并期待明年的EVO比本届更好！
