The photographer wondered about the origin of the emotional power of a print, what is impregnated on the images and which crosses the author, the medium and the spectator.  It is in the details to which he pays attention that Denis Brihat reveals the greatness of the details in which the beauty resides. He tames his subjects to extract their singularity.

Denis Brihat has devoted his entire life to photography. The traditional color of the photography industry did not satisfy him for his personal creations, he developed by experimenting alone, the tints and shades. Having become a master of printing techniques, he has gone beyond the boundaries imposed to transcribe nature magnified by his poetic gaze. The emotional power that emanates from his photographs is the result of his aesthetic requirement whose rendering is without equal. But the technical processes are at the service of a single mission: "to reveal the beauty or the fantasy of a form, the complexity of a structure, the subtlety of a texture, the iridescence of a light, the poetry of a moment" as Solange, his wife, says it so well.It is impregnated with classical music which offers themes and variations that he wished to treat certain photographic subjects in the same way. Here, the sand and its variations. It is thus that through his glance on the creations of the nature a priori banal, it reveals the beauty and gives to see its infinite richness.

Retour De Voyage has selected this photograph that destabilizes us as to the size of this stone that draws a trail of sand, whipped by the winds. This image of 1998 was printed in 6 copies in 1998.
