While at university, in addition to his literary studies, he bought a 35 mm camera, set up a darkroom, and made his first black-and-white silver prints. It was a revelation! From that moment on, books on the technique, history, and aesthetics of photography took precedence over all others. He was self-taught through and through.<\/p>\n<p>After forty years of living and working in audiovisual media, he switched to digital photography and began showing his nature images. More than ever, he devoted himself to his passion. His recent subjects come from the plant kingdom, flowers, which he displays in series of close-up shots. For several years, he has been exploring these organic forms in the open air.<\/p>\n<p>Today, his style is evolving. In winter, he takes more controlled shots in the studio; in the warmer months, he shoots outdoors with more pronounced lighting. Literally inches away from his subjects, he moves closer to abstraction and away from representation.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Description\u00a0: Un des d\u00e9fis photographiques les plus int\u00e9ressants est la photographie de nuit, technique qui consiste \u00e0 prendre des photos lorsque la lumi\u00e8re naturelle&hellip;<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":2983,"template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[43,67],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-2953","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-ateliers","7":"product_cat-regulier","9":"first","10":"instock","11":"shipping-taxable","12":"purchasable","13":"product-type-variable"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/artsvisuelsgatineau.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/2953","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/artsvisuelsgatineau.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/artsvisuelsgatineau.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/artsvisuelsgatineau.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2983"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/artsvisuelsgatineau.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2953"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/artsvisuelsgatineau.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=2953"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/artsvisuelsgatineau.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=2953"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/artsvisuelsgatineau.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=2953"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
