Keith Levit first picked up a second-hand camera forty years ago. The ensuing years have seen Keith creatively pursue his concept of merging photography and art, in both the black and white and colour mediums. Although based in Winnipeg, many of Keith’s images have been created during his extensive travels throughout Africa, Asia, Europe, the Middle East, and North & South America.
His passion for photography, love of travel and adventure, coupled with his sensitive, honest affection for people, embody images that capture the heart and soul of the world’s most remote and inaccessible regions and the people who inhabit them. Keith also photographs while scuba diving in various global locations. Life underwater is yet another passion of Keith’s. Keith transcends the medium of travel-photojournalism capturing the mystical beauty, harmony, and hardships of the inhabitants of these lands.
