Photographer: Daniel Schnyder (Bévilard, Switzerland) Registered
Since Daniel Schnyder was a kid, he liked to observe the lives on this planet, especially human activities. He believed the people are pilgrims in this world, and his great pleasure was to discover- to get in touch. Daniel is from Switzerland. He is married and blessed with a son. He is currently working as a polymechanician. Photography came to him as a way of curiosity to know how light captures the moment on the sensitive layer of a film. His first roll was Kodacolor, and when he developed it he was astonished. No image! Later he got opportunity to work with a Swiss French newspaper, but practicing press photography become too depressing for him because the majority of the events to cover were tragic. Traveling abroad gave him a new turn, travel became his best school of life, gives him the pleasure of moment, to share and reveal light.
