The prospect of folk photography
In order to facilitate readers' comparison, before introducing the situation of folk photography in China, it is necessary to briefly introduce the international situation: far from it, take our neighbors Japan and South Korea as examples. In addition to the Yamato nationality, there is also a minority in Japan-Ainu people, while South Korea is a single Korean. In these two countries with extremely small territory and simple ethnic composition, the activity of folk photography is impressive. In Korea, folk photographers and enthusiasts who are active in various places make new contributions every year. They have their own organizations, holding various types of shooting and discussion activities every year, and publishing more than thousands of folk books, photo albums and photo albums every year. One of the folk photographers has a modest folk photo library at home, and has published more than 10 sets of nearly 100 series of photo albums for his shamanism activities in Korea. He envied China's endless folk photography themes. He said: "If you shoot in China, it is not enough to live to 500 years old." In Japan, because there is only one Ainu minority, the government allocates a lot of money every year to protect the traditional life of this ethnic group, which provides good conditions for Japanese professionals engaged in folk photography to shoot and study, and a large number of folk books are published every year. In China, due to economic development and other reasons, coupled with the late recognition of folk photography, folk photography in China started late and developed slowly in previous years.

The Association is also committed to China's folk photography going global, actively carrying out foreign exchanges, and has conducted exchanges with the United States, Germany, France, Japan, Finland, Denmark, Australia, India, Myanmar and South Korea. , thus expanding the international influence of China folk photography.
