Title: Sad News About our Forum Member Allegretto
Post by: Slobodan Blagojevic on February 01, 2015, 06:57:15 pm

I just learned that our forum member Allegretto (Herman) passed away recently, after a long battle with cancer.

Most of us have known him for his smart and knowledgable contributions to forum debates. I exchanged PMs and emails with him, and met him for a sunrise shoot of the Chicago skyline last November. He was smart, educated, and entertaining interlocutor, with a passion for photography that we all share. He is survived by his wife and four daughters.

I am sure that many of you will share my sadness for losing a valuable forum member.

Here is to you, my good man, wherever you might be now:
