WELCOME
If this is your first time visiting my site, welcome. Please take your time and look around at the unique Photography in each of the galleries.

"INTO THE LIGHT, Faces of Peru" Galleries 1-4: For me these photographs represent more than just the exotic beauty of Peru. I see them as having historical and anthropological value of indian culture in Peru. I did not make them with that intention, but rather I looked at it as a purely artistic undertaking (a self assignment). Art is not only about pretty pictures, art should also inspire and cause one to think. However you choose to look at these photographs I hope they give you as much pleasure as they have given me.

"Colors of the Heart" in Gallery 5-8: Is work that is more closely connected to things that I find interesting in daily life and are less project driver as the "Into the Light" photographs are.

What I have tried to do with each of the photographic images captured by my camera is to not merely record, but rather through the photographic process of careful exposure, development, and finally the mastering of the finished Fine Art Print render the emotion of the moment as I felt it. For me producing a fine print that expresses my feeling about the subject will always far out weigh what ever value the photograph might have as a historical or journalistic document. Yet, they are documents, of places, landscapes and people that will not much longer remain as they are. The world is forever in a state of change.

The technology that is at this very moment allowing you to see these photographs is also at least partly responsible for making every place on our planet, just like every other place. What will the world be like when we are all the same and every place looks like every other place?

Hopefully these images and those made by others will make us think and preserve what we have. If not, then they will only be a record of what we have lost.

All the photography on this site is for sale, you can see the details in the "Galleries" and "Print Option" menu.

Enjoy,

David P. Fleurant
