Celebrated CP (Canadian Press) photographer Tom Hanson passed away yesterday at the tender age of 41.
He's taken some amazing photographs (some award winning) that can be seen
HERE.
More information about this man can be found
HERE.
A lot of the images include Canadian politicians which, I'm quite sure, no one but a Canadian will recognize. But his style, presence and image composition are outstanding in the field of photojournalism, regardless of the nationality of the subject. He was a great photographer. Kind of a 'be there and f8' kind of photographer - heavy on the 'be there' part.
My favourite has to be the gas-mask wearing bagpiper.
My sincere sympathies go out to his family for their loss.
