Based near St Yrieix la Perche (87500) I work in my studio and also travel throughout the Périgord-Limousin area
I started taking photographs at the age of 10, learning by my mistakes, and now, in retirement, I can at last dedicate the time I would like to my passion for photography.
Cartier-Bresson famously once said "Your first 10,000 photographs are your worst", and of course he was right, the best, possibly the only, way to learn is to take lots of photos.
In the countryside I'm inspired by the beauty of nature all around me here in Limousin and Dordogne : landscapes, yes, but principally the details, a leaf, an insect or even a still life composition. In town architecture provides interesting subjects, but the most fascinating subjects are my fellow citizens, especially when captured in candid street photos, often in black and white.
