I am a nature photographer. My mission is to show the beautiful side around us, and to promote conservation.
We can make difference.
I am a traveling photographer. Traveling, to me, is the best way to see the world. Most of my trips were done in mainland China, my mother country. I have also visited other countries such as South Korea, Japan, Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Germany, France, UK, Austria, Italy, Greece, Hungary, Switzerland, and Kenya.
I am also a photojournalist. Camera and lenses are my tools to show people what is going on around us.
I use two camera systems. because they have different lenses and purposes. The lenses I use range from 8-15mm or 16mm fish-eye to 800mm super-telephoto, and every possible one in between including shift lens and macro lens. I use flash gun very often, mostly as fill-in.
