Just finished reading the autobiography...a few days before his passsing...Read the NY Times review...They were clueless...couldn't connect the life with the image.
Screw them. He leaves us with a dynamic vision...An insight best understood as context.
Read the autobiograpy and understand his legacy.
He leaves his insight as a legacy.
I am very sorry...his work always was new...and honest.

When opening up the page I thought... I know that name. Sorry to hear of his passing- but a lovely tribute. Man was an incredible photographer and a passionate individual. Some of the best art of the sort I've seen. Kudos-

This icon of a genius lived well and had more life stirring to fight a fully-equipped army than a young soldier in Iraq, today. While drenched in the pits of beauty he captured the moment with a story and a song. This octogenarian ignited more creativity than a student in his first years studies. Every day was one to be explored, shared and experienced. We are lucky to have these albums that remain to celebrate the brilliance of his career. He will be missed. A tragedy befitting an icon, I suppose. Good-bye captain of the Helm.

I appreciate these photos all in one place, but I'd love to see dates on them to get a sense of the time the invididual pieces span.
