Wonderful to bump into the great French photographer Raymond Depardon at his exhibition at Visa pour l’image in Perpignan. Amazing work over the decades and having collected his books for years, to now meet him and see his prints first hand is a privilege #documentary #photography #visapourlimage

This is Jim Morrison’s grave in Père-Lachaise Cemetery Paris in 1983. I believe the wonderful stone bust of the lead singer with The Doors has disappeared. Glad to have photographed it 40 years ago before it vanished… #35mmfilm @johncreedon #photograghy #Documentary #kodak #rockmusic #leica #Paris
