Yann Arthus Bertrand FRANCE • Why photography? - I started taking pictures in Kenya. I went there with my wife to do a scientific study on lions. Once the work had begun, I understood rapidly that the image could offer information that was other than the text, that they were complementary. This is why, since that period, my pictures are always inseparable from the text that accompanies them. • Define your vision? - I do not have a photographic vision. I only have one vision; it is the vision of each moment in my life. I believe my desire to take a picture is the desire to continue doing what I enjoy. • What makes a great picture? - I do not think we can talk about ingredients for a photo; simply putit must carry an emotion.
