Whilst I never had teh pleasure of meeting John, some of these pictures I recognise and it is the best way for me to remember and pay tribute to him! :up:

Yes, well done Chris.

As well as his loves of photography and 4X4, John was also a golf tragic and a rugby nut.

I've been reminiscing on an afternoon spent with him and Manta (Simon) over a steak and a couple of beers in the Breakfast Creek Hotel, discussing those important topics.

I have been off photography lately and just hit the board again today and was shocked to see this.

Although I only really met John a handful of times, he was friendly and certainly made me feel welcome.

He made some great photos.
