    Karin Badel
    This is the first video from a recent trip to China. Photographing the landscape, Huangshan, China. What can I say? Chinese artists have been inspired by these mountains for centuries and their art proves that this area has a special place in the hearts of the Chinese people. As I mention in this video over and over Huangshan is a spectacular location that almost doesn't seem real.

    Some of your photos of the mountains in the snow and fog look like the old Chinese ink paintings of that area come to life. They are beautiful and every bit as artistic as those old paintings. I'm positive the ancient Emperors would have loved them and made you Court Photographer. From what you have shown, I could easily spend an entire vacation right there. Nice to finally see the mysterious and lovely Karen too.

    Sir, as a Chinese, I have to say HuangShan is a great destination for photography. Since I was very young and knew nothing about photography, I have seen tons of photographers who traveled there and took the images above the cloud. It is one of the most classical spots in China for landscape photography.
