Denis Darzacq

There are times when we'd have our cam between our hands.. and shooting 5 pictures hoping one would be totally focused and the closest to perfection ! It is a challenge especially if the object is moving..


Denis Darzacq a photographer who i believe "challenged Sir Issac Newton" and managed with his camera to capture a moment where "law of gravity" does not seem to be the most "applicable" law !

The French riots of 2005 inspired the photographer Denis Darzacq to head for the housing estates on the outskirts of the capital. But he wasn't after gritty shots of urban deprivation, he tells Angelique Chrisafis. He wanted something more - to capture an entire generation in freefall and with no one to catch them







I loved his concept. As a pictue there isn't something outstanding as the second he clickd the button. A second does make a difference !

A Lost Dot:
He started in 2005 riots.. i believe he'd find a lot to picture these days after Nicolas Sarckozy's victory !

I love these images. Just a while back, I was thinking about Flickr and about how I haven't seen good photography in a long time :(
