Portraits of a changing China
In this season of harvest, China Daily will publish a photo album-Portraits of a Changing China-on Tuesday.
The album summarizes China Daily's accomplishments in press photography, aiming to enhance international communication and capturing China's spectacular development in the past 12 years. We offer you these 10 pictures as a sneak preview.
Since its founding, China Daily has played a pioneering role in news photography, following photo editing principles focused on "timeliness, truth, people, vividness and right size".
In 2001, the paper launched its news photo website, the first professional photo website set up by a print media outlet in China. In 2007, as a founding member of the Asian News Network, which comprises 21 mainstream news organizations in 19 Asian countries, China Daily upgraded its photo website to a Chinese-English bilingual website-Asia News Photo (www.asianewsphoto.com).
Today, Asia News Photo features more than 2,000 registered photographers and has accumulated 4.5 million images. As part of its cooperation with international news agencies, China Daily has shared nearly 10,000 photos with overseas media outlets over the past 12 years.
The album set to be released this harvest season has selected 120 of the best photos from among them, which have added to the visual heritage of China's rich history and present, as well as the bright future that lies ahead.
In this new era, presenting a vivid, true, multidimensional and panoramic view of China is the new challenge we face, a challenge we will certainly meet. We will work together to present the new era of China in the most constructive, visually appealing and beautiful way possible.
