I joined flickr on 2007, july, and alan is the very first person I met here .. I "happened" into his photostream and I was immediatly impressed by his beautiful windows and doors ... since then, I've discovered his world though his beautiful shots: nature, cities, markets, abandoned houses and sites, people .. alan "catches" beauty in different moments of every day with extreme elegance, intelligence, sensibility and intensity ... a visit to his photo collection is a sure pleasure and inspiration! great artist and very kind friend :-) r.
