about the work
Beautiful black and white photograph of the famous Aiguilles de Chamonix. They stand, sharp and royal, in the Mont-Blanc massif, in the heart of the French Alps. In front of us, the Aiguille de Blaitière and the Aiguille du Plan dominate the horizon. On the right rises the majestic Aiguille des Deux Aigles.I made this portrait of the mountains at sunrise, after the passage of a winter storm. Haunted by the tenacious desire to immortalize the splendor of these mythical summits , I went many times to the foot of the needles. I waited for a long time, longing to be the privileged witness of this magical moment. That day, when the first rays of the sun lit up the summits, a sea of clouds covered the valley. I had the incredible luck to be above the mist to admire the extraordinary work that nature had secretly sculpted during the night.
In this photograph, I like the deep and delicate light, which wonderfully highlights the texture of the frosted rock and its snowy coat. It reveals the features of a pure and charismatic mountain. The impressive chiseling of its edges that cut the horizon. The softness of the contrasts also highlights the grandeur and power of the Aiguilles de Chamonix, which soar beyond the clouds and seem to want to touch the sky.
These legendary mountains make me dream. By their incredible beauty, of course, but also because they are extremely difficult to climb. Inaccessible peaks of which I would like so much to reach summit. One day, perhaps. The beauty of life lies in the fact that everything is possible. What we don't think is possible one day can become so over time. We evolve, we grow, we improve. Thanks to the strength of our imagination and our will, we constantly push our limits. This is how I see photography. How far am I willing to go to admire the fascinating beauty of the high mountains? I choose to cling to this ideal, to return unceasingly to the contact of summits to, one day, reach the ecstasy. To capture in my lens the precious and unique breath that nature offers me. Apotheosis of a long way that led me to glimpse the soul of the mountain, celestial and immutable.
