“Free man, you will always cherish the sea” (Charles Baudelaire)Lovers you will always cherish calm waters - my modest addition.Photographing couples on the banks of the Seine in springtime - what a cliche!But why deprive yourself of the pleasure?Every time I encounter a pair of lovers, my camera smiles: let it do it’s job. Here the couple is double - the tree slanting through the image unites rather than divides.”~ Willy Ronis In the hands of a master a commonplace occurrence, lovers on the Banks of the Seine becomes something truly special and engaging. It’s the structure of the image with the tree separating the two pairs of lovers that more than doubles its impact and emotion.
