This is my journey into photography, the things I learn along the road and what it teaches me back. My opening to the world, the people I meet, the beauty ... and the ugliness of it all.

My purpose on Flickr is to show my work, my favorites and my evolution in technique and creativity.
But it's also to open my eyes to other kinds of photography, art, cultures and ideas.

Marsup' aka MARS - VOTE 4 ME! :D says:
"C'est toujours beaucoup plus facile de dire du mal de quelqu'un que du bien, donc là... C'est chaud! Ce que j'aime dans le travail de Kipourax, c'est, outre la technique que j'admire, cette maîtrise de la lumière, de la mise en scène, de l'imagination... c'est le "deuxième effet "K"", celui qui me met la banane pour la journée et qui au delà de ça, m'inspire.
C'est du grand art, ma première incursion dans l'art de "nos cousins de là-bas"... et je ne lâche pas la prise!
See U, my friend.

Erick Loitière (OQP | Busy) says:
"Quand on arrive sur sa galerie la première chose qui frappe c'est la créativité au sein de toutes ses photos. Oui c'est vrai, il est un peu fou (ou original, au choix :-) mais c'est ce qui fait son style. Kipourax est techniquement un excellent photographe doublé d'une vision originale qui donne de la magie à ses photos."

Dead Air says:
"Kipourax is a scary, scary man. And I mean that in the best of senses. I would gladly have him over for dinner and let him play with my child. The photographs which would ensue would be awesome!
The genius of being a great artist is to know when not to take yourself serious. Kipourax is a great and ever developing artist."2nd October, 2008

Caps the flickr says:
"Plus les jours avancent, plus son travail se démarque. Je suis heureux de partager avec lui notre passion et c'est vraiment tout un plaisir quotidien de venir voir ces photos. J'ai attendu un peu avant de venir écrire un p'tit mot à Kipou, afin de voir ses progrès, sa passion, son travail. Je peux maintenant affirmer, qu'il possède toutes les qualités requises pour être un bon photographe. Bravo lâches pas, t'es trop cool comme mec."

ifotog, Queen of MSP is SO busy!!! says:
"Nicolas has an incredible photographic talent. He combines a technical ability with a vision. His photos display a visual content as well as an emotional content. You are naturally drawn into his world when viewing his photos. They are not contrived like so many photos these days. They display a natural beauty. Not only does he share his photos with us. He also shares his ideas and opinions with us and therefore makes a valuable contribution to the flickr community. Thanks for sharing!"
