Edison my friend

[Ivar Dahl-Larsen]

Edison, my late friend sadly was an alcoholic and passed away recently. He was so proud when he joined me in a challenge one day, walking a distance of one and a half metric miles / 15 kilometres in a scorching sun in the West Indies. Our track was lined with bars as is common in that country so temptations were almost unbearable for my friend. But that was the challenge. No alcohol, just water, - and he made it.

Sad to hear of your loss Ivar, this is a moving portrait of that mirrors your words about Edison - the additional details in the shot hit home.

Thank you Wes. Time passes quickly and it is already some time ago. I am about to return to his country in a week's time.

I hope you have some time to yourself when there Ivar.

I hope you have some time to yourself when there Ivar.

Yes I believe I shall, but I have a problem choosing which cameras to take along One Pentax and one Fuji I guess. Weight is restricted.
