I’m bummed. Just a few moments ago I opened my newsreader to see that About the Image had posted a memorial statement about the passing of George Hall. I only met him once or twice here in the Bay Area at local events, and never for more than a few moments; enough time to merely say how much I enjoyed his images. I’ve always had a personal interest in planes and aviation, and photographer George Hall shot exactly the types of images I’d love to shoot if I ever became an aviation photographer. Take a moment and see George’s excellent collection of aviation images at his Check Six agency. I can only hope he’s spending his time soaring through the clouds.
