FRANCK JACKSON FRANCK JACKSON

Self-taught photographer, living in the United States, specialist in black and white, and member of the artistic direction of Selma's photographic nights.
'I prefer to photograph in black and white,' says Jackson, because it forces the viewer to look at the essence of an image...its shape, tone, light and shadow...instead of being distracted. by the decorative effects of color.
