Chinese Calligraphy

Love the reflection.

Film: Kodak TMAX 400

Chinese calligraphy is unique art. A Chinese character or Han character (Simplified Chinese: 汉字; traditional Chinese: 漢字; pinyin: Hànzì) is a logogram used in writing Chinese, Japanese, sometimes Korean, and formerly Vietnamese.

The number of Chinese characters contained in the Kangxi dictionary is approximately 47,035, although a large number of these are rarely-used variants accumulated throughout history....
