For more than 10 years, Mr. Ma has been taking photos of manhole covers that have pictures on them. He has found over 100 in the streets and alleys of Wuhan and has finally organized many of them into a book. Recently, he posted a "Wuhan manhole cover album" on social media, which has attracted a large number of followers.
10余年间走街串巷，拍下武汉街头巷尾100多个窨井盖图案，最终汇集成册。近日，网友马先生将一款自制的”武汉井盖画册”发布在社交媒体上，吸引了一批”粉丝”关注。
Ma's album is nearly five meters long when fully unfolded.
Round in shape, the entire album is about five meters long when fully unfolded. On its cover is a photograph of a manhole cover on which an image of the Yellow Crane Tower has been painted. The inside pages of the album are in an "accordion style" foldout format with more than 80 photos of manhole covers with paintings of city landmarks such as the Yellow Crane Tower, the Yangtze River Bridge, and the Wuhan Television Tower, as well as cultural landscapes such as East Lake, the Hanyang Tree, and Xibei Lake.
画册整体呈圆形，封面是一款以黄鹤楼为图案的井盖。画册内页是”手风琴式”的折页，收录了80多款不同图案的井盖，有黄鹤楼、长江大桥、电视台等城市地标，也有东湖、汉阳树、西北湖等人文景观。整个画册完全展开后，大约有5米长。
Ma has been working and living in Wuhan for more than 10 years. In 2012, he began to roam through the streets and locate distinctive manhole covers that display urban landmarks and locations in Wuhan.
马先生在武汉工作生活已有10多年。2012年左右，他开始走街串巷，寻找武汉各处有特色的井盖。近年来，他发现这类井盖越来越多，且相对集中于城市或地方特色展示。

Currently, Ma has been classifying these manhole covers and processing the photos he has taken. In addition to the picture album, he has also designed and produced a number of cultural and creative products which feature the manhole cover images as the major element such as decorative paintings, refrigerator stickers, and handbags. He also plans to organize a "Wuhan manhole cover exhibition" in the future.
目前，马先生正在给这些井盖分类，并对拍摄的照片进行艺术加工。除了画册外，马先生还以井盖图案为元素，设计制作了一批装饰画、冰箱贴、手提袋等文创产品。他还计划在时机成熟时，办一场”武汉井盖展览”。
