For Alan

Alan Edwards, curator of This Moment, died on Wednesday. He hadn't posted since mid December and people were beginning to worry. With good reason as it turned out. 'This Moment' was an inspiration. It influenced my photography in a variety of ways as well as just being a lovely place to pop in and marvel at Alan's latest pictures, peruse the various amusing links he always seemed to find, or simply enjoy the quotes and extracts he published in tandem with his photos. I'll miss all of these things. I'll also miss (and have missed for some time now) his little forays over to mine and Clairwil's blogs. He had a gentle, off the wall sense of humour and he was very easy to carry on silly, amusing little riffs with in the comments section.

I'll stop now. Visit his blog, have a rummage through it, I promise you'll find some great stuff in there.



My condolences to his family and close friends. He'll be sorely missed by everyone who came to know him, online or in real life.
