Incredible body of work

One of my favourite things to do when I have time to spare is to wander the Internet in search of photographic inspiration. After all, it is by constantly challenging himself that one just might improve.

This also has to do with the fact that last week I went out with a good buddy of mine and fellow shutter bug and we spent most of the evening trying to figure out what our photography was all about... Turned out that once you mentioned the obvious reason – capturing the essence of life, culture, playing with light, creativity and so on – defining your UNIQUE style is something else.

So until I’ve come up with something half decent about my own pictures, I’ve decided to share inspiration and links with you all as part of an exercise consisting of defining what really turns me on when it comes to photography on a regular basis.

The first photographer feature in this new column is from my hometown. I came across his website totally by luck and am sure glad I did. Sylvain Lefebvre’s work is – in my humble opinion – the perfect balance between photojournalism and art photography. You can view some of his shots HERE.
