In the brief introduction to Distant Journeys, a new collection of photography assembled from trips undertaken over nearly five decades and across six continents, David Katzenstein tells us that his “passion for discovery” began early. Perhaps it was when he was only three years old, gripping his father’s back as their “frisky gray mare” galloped across a beach in Cuba, or when he visited Norway at age seven and watched a waterfall plunge half a kilometer into the sea below.

Étés francais is a collection of photographs from numerous summer travels to France between 1996 and 2007. During each summer our family would rent the same small gite in the northern part of Brittany on a country road between the old bustling summer resort of Dinard and the inland hamlet where our cousins owned a two hundred year old farmhouse. Time would stand still as we ventured near and far, exploring the shores and valleys of this rugged province located four hours west of Paris.
