China photo photography representative

Lang Jingshan, a representative of photo photography in China.

He always wears a gown, clean and peaceful, and stands there quietly, with a detached bearing and personality. 1April 3, 995, the great photographer Lang Jingshan died at the age of 103.

Lang Jingshan (1892- 1995), a native of Li Lang Village, Youbu Town, Lanxi, Zhejiang Province, was the earliest photojournalist in China. Lang Jingshan created the art of "high-light photography" by alternately overlapping painting skills and exposure in darkroom photography, which is unique in the world photography industry. I have loved photography all my life, and * * * has exhibited more than 1000 works in the salon photography world.

Lang Jingshan's theory of works: first, the structure and level on the screen are artistic; Second, the photo itself has far-reaching significance. Chinese painting uses pen and ink, and photography uses a camera. Although the tools are different, they both want to create a beautiful picture, so the reason between them is the same, but the application methods are different.

Lang Jingshan used the "scenery" in Chinese painting, which is actually the "composition" in photography. Among the six painting methods of Chinese painting, there are the so-called "business position" and "changing from model to writing". When you use a pen, you can choose from a variety of things, discard weeds and preserve gems, while photography is limited to mechanical and environmental objects. Only by using "high-light photography" can you be unrestricted. The so-called "bright spot" is "a collection of various scenery, with rules to follow, giving up the taboo of the picture and taking its appropriate picture."
