The story beyond the image
How can I recreate the feeling of vertigo?
The idea came to me from a small bridge spanning a precipice above the Ubaye River in the Alps. The gaze naturally follows the course of the torrent then loses its bearings as it heads towards the opposite horizon; it tries to grasp details in this vast panorama and is finally drawn into the vanishing lines of the image. This image is a true panorama (I sometimes joke that it's proof that the Earth is round); it is not a drone photograph. It is based on the composition of more than 80 shots, totaling nearly 2 billion pixels, and on meticulous digital assembly for which I didn't count the hours and days. This image is in many ways unique.
About Art Editions
Offering you the best requires not only a demanding technical approach to photography, but also to publishing. The goal is to provide you with a true "art photograph," according to the highest professional quality standards, using high-definition and large-format printing techniques from the best photo labs I have selected.
The photo prints are genuine, high-quality laser-printed photographs on professional silver halide paper. The photograph is sealed under high-quality 10mm acrylic glass, which enhances color expressiveness and depth. It naturally protects the photograph from UV radiation and ensures long-term color stability. A 3mm Plexiglas mount ensures rigidity.
The mount is ready to hang, equipped with an aluminum frame on the back, allowing the work to be hung in front of the wall.
The work presented is a unique edition (1/1) thanks to its DIASEC Certified printing process and its pyramid format.

Presentation
Philip was born in a small town in south-east France, bathed in the light of Provence, and now lives in Aix-en-Provence. He has always been fascinated by the universe and colours, and has pursued his passions in two different directions in life. One was scientific, in search of the secrets of lightning and thunderstorms, which took him to the world's most heavily struck regions: Africa, Asia and the Americas, where he lived for several years in the American West. The other is artistic, as a nature photographer, where he combines his two sensibilities in a hyper-realistic photographic approach in search of authenticity, realism and impact.
Philip has realised from his many travels and encounters that, despite the diversity of cultures, there are universally shared impressions when when faced with the spectacle of our universe. These are fundamental feelings about the mysteries and forces of nature that he wants to revive. His images are often conceptualised long in advance, right up to the moment when the natural elements come together - the location, the moment, the light - to create ‘the right impression’, and rediscover the visual and mental impact felt when contemplating our Mother Earth and Universe wonders.
