Mother Nature is the Ultimate Artist - Imapix (10 pics)

If you ever need a virtual vacation, go to Flickr and check out the photostream of Gaëtan Bourque (aka Imapix). A self-professed amateur photographer from Canada, Imapix will dazzle you with his use of light, color and composition. His photos make you feel like you're taking in a big breath of fresh air.

"My studio is my camera and it could be anywhere. For me, the ordinary doesn't exist..... life and nature are a constant stimulus and a source of nourishment for my creative mind.

As Henri Cartier Bresson once said : "To photograph is to hold one's breath, when all faculties converge to capture fleeting reality. It's at that precise moment that mastering an image becomes a great physical and intellectual joy."

Comment by Aubree on September 30, 2009 at 7:17am: I didn't read the blurb, and just started looking at the photos, and was thinking to myself "this looks like photography by a Quebec artist," and sure enough... he is. Funny how people from a certain area have work that looks alike.
