The image transports the viewer into the heart of soul of the photographer

My first pictures are from when I exercised as a sailor in the sea of the Channel with an old Kodak bellows. Right out of my commitment I decided to go to Paris to become a photographer, knew nothing and despite the outcry of my mother. After a rough start (waiter, guitar in the subway, etc ...) I go to a chemist for the start of flu. There, I hear a woman talk about pictures. So I asked him an address where to find a job in this profession. She advises a laboratory "Central Color." I present the next day and after an interview with Ms. Welsh, I am hired to develop black and white. Therefore, I dedicate myself fully to everything that is closer to the image. I learn quickly and I buy a Pentax Spotmatic. I began my first shots and can exploit the work of this great art that I meet (Sieff, Lorieux, Merzagora). This excited me, but he committed suicide, too soon in my opinion. Then it was the color picto and finally Publimod (Newton Jonvelle, Boubat ...) The Querrec advised me for my first exhibition in Britain. Every day thousands of images paraded on the light table and those on the Nature of Michaud inspired me.
I often look for the abstract in nature without touching anything. Water remains a source of inspiration. It is life.
I continue to read and search for images of others and give my own comment. I continue that passion. She bet my feelings and I share it.
Retired now, she fills my moments of solitude and I am still discovering new ways to explore nature. In photography, we learn every day.
