He draws his inspiration from the states of nature: “in gusts of wind, salt spray, rustling leaves and diffused light”, in any place with minimal human intervention. In the cities he is inspired by the atmosphere of antiquity, the rough laying of walls and log cabins, the thin spiers of the spiers of Gothic cathedrals and the lace of stone.

Pitenin Dmitry

He studied photography on his own. Books, trials, errors, analysis, imitation and repetition. The constant search for "their". I did not have a childhood with Smena, as well as long hours in the bathroom with a red light and the smell of reagents. There was some kind of film soap dish for pictures in a family album. And that’s all.

The world began to slowly turn over after buying a digital camera. I always did not like to do something thoughtlessly, I became interested, delve into. And got involved. At first, absolutely any genres were interested, I wanted to try everything - there are so many interesting things in the world of photography. Gradually, I found “mine”: the inner strings vibrate with a gentle and “goosebump” timbre precisely when shooting nature.

In other genres I’m an outside observer: I like to watch, but I don’t want to shoot. However, sometimes I take pictures of the cityscape, trying to find places without a noticeable influence of time - wires, cars, advertising. I love landscape abstractions.

If they ask me what my pictures are about, I will answer: “About beauty in the ordinary. About how often in the hustle and bustle of the days we don’t notice much and don’t attach importance to it. About the fragility and majesty of nature. " I try to convey simple sensations - roughness of stones, solar heat and freshness of the wind. Simple joys.
