Pioneering Chinese photography theorist Liu Bannong (1891-1934) mentioned in the Beiping Guangshe Society Annual (1928), that Chinese photography ought to have its own identifiable character distinguished by unique Chinese tastes and charm. He felt that Chinese photography should be differentiated from photographic works made in other regions of the world. Today, Hong Kong photographers may be influenced by western photography yet remain strongly rooted in Chinese culture. Master photographer Tchan Fou-li (b. 1916) is an innovative local photographer who has created many ethnically rich photos. To detach Hong Kong photography from the context of western pictorialism, he posited that "landscape photography should honour the tradition established by Chinese painting" and promote a "composite-style of photography and painting". He has worked his entire life to apply the aesthetics of Chinese painting to photography with a vision of eventually creating Hong Kong photos imbued with those same aesthetics. In 1944, Tchan immigrated to Vietnam to run a business where his interest in photography blossomed. He acquired from Chen Fangqu sophisticated darkroom techniques of film development, colour temperature and gradation control. In the early years, he was also impressed by the creative ideas and style of Lang Jingshan (1892-1995), a first generation master photographer in China. One can see Lang's influence in Tchan's montage works which he created by overlapping and synthesising negatives images. These resulted in photos which resembled Chinese paintings. In 1955, Tchan moved to Hong Kong as a businessman. Shooting as an amateur photographer at the time, his photography was influenced by western realism in the way that he focused on depicting the lives of ordinary people. He has made a far-reaching historical impact on Chinese photography and his masterly style has earned great admiration among viewers from the Mainland China and overseas alike.
