Since 1930s, Jane's photography has never stopped, and she has traveled all over the country and even the world.

Among them, Melody of Water Waves was selected by the National Culture Promotion Association of the Ministry of Culture of China as a classic photographic work of China in the 20th century.

Mr. Jian Qingfu is a respected elder in the photography field in China. He persevered in his photographic creation, and took pains to wander in the barren hills and wild forests, haunt the border villages, travel in the barren Gobi and go deep into the secular market. In order to capture the true feeling of human beauty, he fell over his waist and overturned his car, but he never complained and enjoyed it. Jane thinks that it is more satisfying to pursue a good painting thousands of miles away than to win an award for her own work. In creative thinking, Jane is brave and resourceful, and advocates innovation. His majestic, open-minded, optimistic and straightforward personality and sincere feelings often permeate his works.

Mr. Jian Qingfu cares about the development of photography in the motherland, treats people generously, often subsidizes various activities, and does not want to be named to promote himself. All insiders admire him and praise his manners.
