Photographs
I am 74 years old, I am living in the Moselle department where I am retired from industry .
I am completely self-taught, and I have been taking pictures since the eighties, with a silver process camera, and I only took pictures of family, holidays and landscapes.
With the digital switchover, I started to make urban, portrait and human photos. Following the meeting of nature photographers, in a photo club, they gave me the desire to move towards nature photography, and more particularly, macro photography.
My guiding thread is the seasons. In spring and summer, I like to photograph flowers (orchids, pulsatilla vulgaris,…and butterflies.) When autumn arrives; bees, mantis, dragonflies and small insects.
Exposition
The european tree frog, an amazing amphibian.
As Lorraine and Alsace are practically the last bastions of this species in France, I wanted to create, a poetic universe to make people feel emotion and tenderness, in order to sensitize visitors about the regression of our tree frog.
It is still very present in the Meurthe-et-Moselle and Meuse, in the region of the ponds in the Moselle, and in the plain of the Upper Rhine, as well as in the Sundgau, on the Alsatian side .
