"J'ai choisi cette année de privilégier l'impression numérique grands formats sur papier ou sur toile.
Les dimensions vont de 30 x 30 cm jusqu'à 120 x 180 cm ou 144 x 144 cm.
J'ai une préférence pour la finition sur toile de lin montée sur châssis, à la manière d'un tableau.
Aucun encadrement n'est nécessaire, la finition est de premier ordre et l'impact visuel est garanti."

Ahead of the Trend. Exciting. I could go on and on. If you haven't made Philippe a contact you are missing the boat. His work is all the above and more.
He has been a contact of mine for quite a while and I've seen his work continue to improve as the years have passed. I look forward to seeing what artistic piece he has diligently created for us to see.
Good work Philippe. I adore your art.

Ivan Makarov says:
"I've followed Philippe's photostream for a few months now, and he never ceases to amaze me with the creativity and diversity of his work. His treatment of color is the best I have seen on Flickr, but it is how he picks his objects, separates them from the environment or how he finds relationships between the objects is what is truly stunning. You may also notice that his presents it in variety of styles or treatments, but the quality is superb regardless.
His world is a world of beauty, and you learn to see your own world in a different way through Philippe's art. His is for sure one of the greatest assets when you consider overall value of Flickr, and I am glad he continues to share his work with all of us."16th December, 2007

"Welcome to one of the most beautiful and eclectic photostream on Flickr!
From gorgeous lansdcapes, original macros, to creative abstracts, Philippe has the ability to turn each of this photographs into work of art. He masterfully controls the light, the colors. Sometimes I even suspect him of controlling the natural elements, such as the sky!
A true professional, an artist, but also a great friend, always giving excellent feedback.

"In the flickr universe, there are a few people that stand out from the crowd, some really talented artists who can really make you say "whow!" with their work. Philippe, is one of those few. What makes him very special, is his consistent quality on his works. In his photostream, there is no average quality picture. We all have our good photographic times occasionally, some frequently, but with Philippe, this seems to be the only case. Excellent work, always, no compromise, no exceptions!
He was one of the first photographers I met in Flickr, his work has inspired me for some good months and I know he will continue to do so in the future. Thank you Philippe for all those lovely daily surprises and your -ever!- kind comments on mine and other peoples' works."11th June, 2007

"For my two years on Flickr I found that there are many wonderful and talented photographers... and for me....I have found that there are only a few like yourself, that consistently create profoundly beautiful images. Images that inspire, speak and leave me feeling awestruck and whose subject matter is as varied as the astounding colors found in each one. Philippe, your eye for color, light and composition is impeccable. You are a master of the art of photography.
Thank you for sharing and inspiring."6th June, 2007

"The main reason to start writing this testimonial is that I've just realized how much time I'd be spending in Philippe's photostream, faving and faving and faving his wonderful photographs. It's incredible how many great works could be found here. One by one, they give joy and peace and happiness, they are so inspiring lessons. I'm so proud to be on his friends' list and so grateful to have this great privillege of learning true photography from his work."

"I was lucky enough to find one of Philippe's very fine images in my first days on Flickr, and that was one of my earliest faves. This led me to view his stream which had me speechless it is so beautiful. A photostream of amazing beauty, colour, detail, and for me, very great inspiration.
Whenever I have moments where I feel uninspired for photo subjects, Philippe's works always make me feel inpspiration again. He has a great photographer's eye - sees great beauty in the ordinary, brings superb detail to a photo which others may not even see to take. As well as this, there is a great positivity to his images, the colours are great and so are the compositions.
On top of all of this, he is a great Flickr friend and very supportive and encouraging, I am pleased to be his friend :)
Thank you Philippe! Keep smiling and doing your great work :)"4th June, 2007

"Philippe is the greatest square format photographer i've ever met! who said you need a wide horizontal for landscape? nothing is impossible and Philippe had done it thousand or even million times of a stunning square format landscape photos.
Each and every single picture of him are simply worth more than a single word.
My greatest salute to you buddy. glad to have you as friend. you work really push me to the higher level of photography life.

"Philippe, c'est assez compliqué de le résuméen quelques phrases, d'autant plus que sa gallerie parle d'elle même. En quelques mots cela pourrait etre: Mr Rubik Cube.
Non seulement pour le format pratiquement constant qui indique une signature, mais egalement pour ce qu'un simple jeu peut représenter.
Variations, Regles, Positions, References, Contrastes couleurs...
L'autre impression qui peut ressortir c'est également qualité, systematique, beauté.
Une des galleries importantes de flickr en ce qui concerne la France.
Et pour terminer, une gallerie à laquelle on associe sans aucun probleme le nom de Photographe de reference.

Little Laddie says:
"Philippe, what has yet to be said of this great artist? Many speak of his artistic ability and engaging captures. There is much to be said of his composition and manipulation of the camera. In all, his technique and gifted eye have brought joys to each of us as we view his works eagerly, on a daily basis.
The details are what draw my eye to Philippe’s works, though. The gentle caress of light as it meanders through a grass laden field… the cast of a shadow giving depth and warmth to an evening’s glow. I notice the trickling changes in the tones of a shade as they emerge from a flushed hue to a crimson flame of light, and I watch in wonder as an intriguing image emanates forth from a simple composition into a rhapsody of life.
In Philippe’s works I can hear the echoes of ages past and stories being told. A timeworn gate wags on about those who have entered and left again, its old and rusty hinges gazing upon the fresh and new blossoms pendulant above it. A giant’s foot sits still and quiet, frozen in time by a mossy carpet – poised as if ready to set out on an adventure at any given moment. A delicate blossom reaches forth its tremulous petals into the light, the never-ending story of new beginnings told once more.
I see all of this in Philippe’s images, and they speak to me, as I am sure they do to others. Your works are grand - - persist."27th May, 2007

As it has already been said a thousand times he spends countless hours writing encouraging comments, for other Flickr members. It's for me and honour to be counted as one of his contacts.
Philippe it has been a pleasure to meet you here at Flickr and I really hope from the deep of my heart that I will be able to see some more of your excellent work for many more years.

Art is the right description for what he does. His amazing sense for colors, composition and technics makes every single image so unique and perfect. He visualize dreams.

"Attention les yeux !
La galerie de Mr Sainte-Laudy est un petit bijou, où aucune photo-joyau ne dépareille. Elles méritent toutes un "Fave", et beaucoup plus, tant elles sont brillant (in english in the text).
Malgré une technique parfaitement maîtrisée, Philippe prend soin de préciser dans sa présentation qu'il est doté, avant-même de fouiller parmi les boitiers et les objectifs de son fourre-tout, de "two eyes".....
C'est tout, et c'est tout "Pilou".
Ce type-là sait rester simple et profondément humain, ça transpire dans tous ses -nombreux- commentaires ; et c'est pour ça qu'il est un grand Monsieur sur Flickr."8th May, 2007

"I started with one stunning photo that lead to Philippe's stream, where I found so many more. I then started following his work regularly. What have I found -- He just keeps outdoing himself.
As s relatively new Flickr member I was looking to rekindle my love of photography having dropped it for many years.
Now the kids are grown and I have my time back.
When see Philippe's work I am truly inspired and to get out there; shoot new material and use modern techniques to breath life into my older photos.
People like Philippe are the reason I'll stay with Flickr, he is a talented photographer, who shares his insights and appreciation with others."27th January, 2007

Mais aussi, la gentillesse, les conseils qu'il prodigue sans retenue lors de ses visites "chez moi", j'adore et j'apprécie toujours ses "Bon WE JP"!

Say it and "feel" how it sounds. Beautiful, yes!
A bit of fun, just to start writing a small Testimonial about this magnificent photographer, who has the very special gift to "say everything" through his stunning images.
He lives in a wonderful city, Strasbourg, which I had the great privilege to know one day. I fell in love with that place and now I fell in love with Philippe´s special set of his homeplace.
Philippe is a friendly person, who leaves his friends and contacts the most generous and encouraging comments all the time. It is so nice to read was he has to say.
Get to know him.
Spend some time on this fabulous photostream, to know what I am talking about.
It is worth it, believe me.

Philippe takes you away to a fantasy picture perfect place and his pictures will make you go *SIGH* each time. Just Flickr through his phtostream and you'll see what I mean.

The colors Philippe finds and masters in his pictures are truly mesmerizing and inspirational. He obviously looks at the world in a unique way and I find myself staring deeply into his photos for extended periods of time. There is so much clutter on Flickr that it is nice to take time, sit back, and enjoy some of his work.
I highly recommend you take time to go through his Top 20. The blues in them will stop a clock. Philippe is one of the true pioneers of HDR photography and I doubt his work will ever cease to amaze me."29th May, 2006
