5.0 out of 5 stars Buy two, one for yourself and one for a gift.

For the F1 enthusiast this book is a must. Paul-Henri Cahier is not just a race photographer, but a true artist behind the lense.
He was able to capture the joy of winning and the agony and frustration of defeat. This book combined with the movie "Senna" leave you feeling you knew this fine man personnally. I bought a second copy to give to my son as a gift.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best Senna books you can own
Reviewed in the United States on March 29, 2014

Some of the best F1 images you will see. True talent with these pictures that were taken especially with the camera equipment they used then, and at the speeds they were driving with turbo. Much harder to capture images then with todays technology.

Most pictures were too dark. Better pics off Senna FB pages. Thought pics would be much brighter coming from a photographer for F1.

5.0 out of 5 stars THROUGH MY EYE by Paul-Henri Cahier
Reviewed in the United States on February 8, 2005
"Any creative endeavor is a raid on the inarticulate" - T. S. Elliott

Some things are truly beyond words. Despite the volumes of books attempting to describe the magic that made the late great Ayrton Senna da Silva the legend he was -- we have been left wanting . . . until now.

No other photographer today carries the mantle of resident artist in the rarified airs of the world that is Formula One better than Paul-Henri Cahier. As a second generation F1 photographer PHC began his brushes with greatness early on as a wee boy playing ping-pong with house guests like like the legendary Fangio and other grand prix luminaries who were part of his famous father Bernard Cahier's menagerie d' bon amis.

The photographic images of Paul-Henri Cahier are an inexhaustible invitation to discovery of things that are simply not possible to ascribe to the written word alone. With the prodigious gift that is Cahier's visual poem for our fallen hero we have returned to the place of joy and remembrance our hearts have longed for since the world changed forever on the black weekend of May 1994.

This book takes us beyond the mere surface of the image and into the realm of mystique. Like Senna before him Cahier is transcendent in his art form where both talents on display are a tantalizing thing of beauty to behold. Any serious collection of motor sport is incomplete without this definitive aesthetic masterwork.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must for those who appreciate Senna
Reviewed in the United States on February 13, 2005
Paul Henri Cahier's new book "Through My Eye" is a must have for all who admired Ayrton Senna and his amazing career in F-1. The pages are filled with probably the most expressive portraits of Ayrton Senna that have ever been taken. There are also photographs of some of the most important racing moments in Ayrton's career . Recognized as Formula One's premeir photo artist , Paul Henri does not let us down. The book construction is of the highest quality and will be right at home in any art collection.
