This video certainly showed me what's its all about.

He was,with Irvin Penn,one of the reasons why I got into photography and of course the Blow Up movie,depicting David Bailey.

R.I.P Mr Haskins

An Icon who conveyed so much in the minimalistic way. Yes, he truely will be missed but I am sure his vision will be emulated for yrs to come.
   May he rest in peace & harmony as much he conveyed in his images.

That is true. I only recently discovered his work via someone doing a homage to his work.

I then checked out Sam's work and was astonished how fresh it was... it could have been shot today!

He will always be remembered
