I believe in impossible things to happen. that's who i am... that's what i do for living, making real the things i dream and see inside my eyes. that's where my work is born, and my work it's my evolution as a photographer.

 

it's nothing

Simon is a great photographer with a specific vision of his own. Hopefully he will be able to break out of his native Chile rather sooner than later and have the chance to show his talent to an audience (outside of flickr and Chile) that can appreciate his art.

I have only just come across his work, and ...wow! Every image is striking, and has a wonderful narrative quality and great understanding of his subject. A very talented indidvidual who I'm sure will go far.

Well.. I looked at Simon's stream months ago, and decided that he's one of the reasons I want to become a photographer. In his pictures you can see a perfect taste for lighting, composition, colours - but not only these technical specs: there's also something else, an aura of elegance and intimacy, magic and mystery.

Simón is beautiful and talented and imaginative, and enviably young for already having learned that impossible things can be made to happen (I hope he never unlearns that). I look forward to saying, I knew him back when ...

One of the most unique & gifted talents I´ve encountered on Flickr. Everytime I see one of his photos, it makes me think and it makes me feel. That´s important. That´s good photography!

Esthetically rich, seductively dark, masterfully colored, Simon provokes its viewers with every click. His plastic and histrionic photographic productions, invite us into his own personal world and guide us trough what seems to be his deepest, darkest dreams and desires with a smile. Fashionable, cold and sweaty, you can see the passion and hear the air. Somehow reminds me of a digital Duane Michals or a minimalistic David La Chappelle (if that make sense at all).

Simon U never stop to amaze me ... the thing i like about u, are ur ideas; and how u put them together and come out with such beautiful results! I Really love to view ur photos, thier amazing and inspiring. Wish u good luck.."

They say that 90% of what makes a photo good is the use of light. Simon is the master of light. He also has a unique talent for creating surreal and gravity-defying images. For me, his exquisite self-portraits transcend beauty and delve into pure longing... Hugs my friend!
