Volume 1

Une Galerie Oblique. Petit traité de géométrie photographique.

(An Oblique Gallery. Little treaty of photographical geometry.)

This book illustrates the possibilities of this new technic of shooting panoramic photos with a subject which is without any originality : a grey facade of a gallery located in a private yard. 

It was chosen to show the power of the « panoroïd » technic which was not considered with interest by the different professional and photographers I met last year. 

This booklet is a  graphical Manifesto, photos are shown but not explained. All the traditional rules of perspective in photography are redesigned.

My Launchingpeople Project : A tricycle to promote creativity

Last week I heard from the project managed by Samsung regarding creative personnal projects. In my field as I am confronted to a lack of mobility to promote my photos, I thought in designing a special tricycle in order to sell my photos in different places and markets of Paris. So I presented this idea which has been  accepted. In www.launchingpeople.fr, Video & Photo category, my project is present and you can support it.

The two photos reproduced also in this post are Panoroïds made after a special poster reproducing 500 covers of the reference Photo magazine issued last month june 2013. They are not from the commercial catalog but are nevertheless covered by a copyright. They show that my shooting technic can be applied to any subject, and not only monuments or landscapes. 

 Just as a reminder these photos were created as they are without any use of software touching up, accessory or trick. One is completely new as the panoramic is used with a subject of less than 20cm length. The poor quality of the photos is the result of my lack of knowledge and do not correspond to their initial condition.

My first Panoroïd sold in 2012 : A self-portrait.

Self Portrait
Panaroïd Titel:    Shadow's Rolling Out. (Déroulement d'une ombre)
Panaroïd reference :        14 08 V04

This is the first photo sold in my first public presentation on the 25th june 2012 (during the Nuit de la Photo, Place Saint Sulpice, Paris). It was purchased by a polish woman who did not want to show a photo from Paris that would represent the Eiffel Tower to her friends. At that period I had not produced the "Eiffelnoïdes" (See future posts, Booklet nos. 4 & 5).

When it is possible I try to tell a small story with my images. This belongs to the first attempts to apply my technique to a person and not a still monument. My shadow was easy to convince to accept the trial. It also respected my anonymity. Of course my shadow is much nicer and thin than the real subject of reference. This subject is now a subject I work regularly on, see future posts on "Self-Shadows", Booklet no. 17.

This subject is symbolic of my way of working and is representative of my attitude about creativity in photography in France. In my country legislation regarding the taking of a photo and then its distribution/selling is very restrictive. For instance to reproduce the portrait of a person and sell it you need a written acceptation from the person in the photo if she can be recognized.  By choosing my shadow I remain free of all this legislation. Secondly a shadow, a pavement is not expensive. Every one can imitate me and find a similar environment to produce a creative image and enter in a friendly open challenge. It is just and only a question of creativity.
