Philip Plisson

The Pink Lake, in Senegal about 30 km north-east of Dakar, this shallow lagoon gets its color from the presence of microorganisms that produce a red pigment to resist the strong sunlight and its high salt concentration. The women have just unloaded the salt from the boats and dumped it on the edge of the lake where it will be whitened and dried in the sun.

A few words about the author

Philip was born on the banks of the Loire river, and discovered La Trinité-sur-Mer when he was 4 years old. This is where his father gave him his first passion: sailing. The need of sea will not leave him anymore! At 9, he discovered his second passion: the photo thanks to his paternal grandmother who offered him his first camera. In the early 80's, Philip decided to live with his two passions: photographing to navigate and navigate to photographing. Named Painter of the French Navy in 1991, he testifies to the major events related to the sea world in order to preserve the memory of our contemporary maritimity, as had wished Richelieu creating the Corps of Painters of the Navy. Philip, as a sailor-photographer, has only one leitmotiv: to have every day a new desire of image to take and to share with you. For more information : www.plisson.com
