I was working on a post about the Formula One-Grand Prix of Canada, but I couldn't do it, I'm sorry. The Week-end in Montreal was overshadowed by the tragic death of Shaun Best. Shaun died of a heart attack after a dinner with fellow photographers. I was supposed to be at that dinner, but I didn't make it. The last time I saw Shaun was during the Vancouver Olympics. We shot a hockey game standing beside each other. We had some time before the game to chat and catch up with each other. I hadn't seen Shaun much since leaving Montreal, where he was based for Reuters.
I had a lot of respect for Shaun. He was a great guy, and a fabulous photographer.
