This is a shocking news, Igor..... Can't believe it!

 

Yuri was the PNer who inspired me with his artistic photo works six years ago, influencing me to become a photo.net member. He was kind enough to visit many of my photos and comment/rate them generously....

 

We've lost a great member and friend.... It is a big loss to PN community!

Yes Brad, It is a big loss to PN community. He was an EXCELLENT photographer. One of the best. It is hard to believe it.

I love his photography. Cannot believe it.... only 41... I'm so so sorry...

I was so sad for this terrible news. "Yura" has been really a great and talented photographer.

I knows that you were good friends... (I still remember your fantastic shots of the "squirrel photographer"...)

I admired his photography, he rated my photos and he will be missed.

Like so many others I never knew Yuri, Igor, except as a wonderful exponent of the photographic art. Thank you for drawing the photo.net community's attention to this sad loss. Your photo is a fitting tribute for one who was taken so early in life. Kind regards, Chris

Nice shot by excellent composition...Regards hSP
