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."
