shell7 says: Bernie, it was such a privilege to learn about your work through GO. As someone who studied architecture and cities, I saw so much in your work that resonated with my own feelings about urbanism and the duality often found within it. I loved the diptychs that you were working on - the two images in contrast really sparked new ways of looking at things...I only wished I'd had more time.

cpav says: Indigo, my daughter, Nikki, her friend, and I love your work! Absolutely beautiful and memorable. Thanks for opening your studio.

spatialk says: Bernie's photographs convey such a powerful sense of place that you really feel the culture you're looking at whether that's Mongolia, Brazil or Wisconsin. Truly documentary as fine art.

cjordandesign says: I often find photography to be a too-easily self-indulgent medium where banality is glorified and meaning is dismissed. This is not the case with DeChant's images: they have weight and power even when the subject is as light and airy as mist in a valley. His subjects range from abstract still lifes to informal portraiture and landscapes, all informed by an eye sensitive to elegant composition and man's place in the world.

MaryM says: Beautifully composed reflections on daily life from around the globe.
