Walter Cronkite, one of America's leading news reporters and journalist, died two days ago at the age of 92. He was the man who told America President John F. Kennedy had died, and informed us of so many important events in our history. Like so many other Americans growing up in the 1950s and 1960s, he was to me America's most trusted man. Walter Cronkite was a role model to so many and he will be greatly missed by the world.

Hemingway’s Remington: The Typewriter That Traveled the World
In the early 1920s, Ernest Hemingway carried his Remington Portable Typewriter across Europe as a young reporter for the Toronto Star. From the bustling streets of Paris to war-torn Turkey, he pounded out vivid stories on politics, war, and daily life.
In one account, he described watching refugees flee across the Balkans. His typewriter perched on an old hotel desk, the fire flickering nearby, a glass of scotch within reach, he pounded out to their stories of desperation in crisp, unflinching prose.
Light and rugged, the Remington suited his restless nature—just as useful in a Parisian café as in a conflict zone. Long before he became a literary icon, Hemingway honed his craft with each keystroke.

“The Reporter”
The telegram from his editor was clear. He needed to file copy by midnight. He threw his scarf down; poured himself a massive slug of bourbon; lit a cigarette and got to work. He started to type up the story of the gangland killings that would expose gangster and police chief alike. Suddenly, the phone rang. A familiar voice: asking to meet him urgently in the bagel bakery opposite. He left the desk and headed out. He never returned.

Rouen (France) - Lors de la manifestation contre la loi sur le recul de l'âge des retraites, j'ai eu le plaisir de retrouver des amis et anciens collègues. Angèle à la caméra et Fred au micro. J'ai fait cette photo au début de manifestation pendant une interview. Il est plus facile d'interviewer les manifestants quand ils ne marchent pas encore. Sinon le Journaliste reporter d'image (cameraman) est obligé de filmer en marchand à reculons. Un exercice difficile car les manifestants marchent souvent trop vite.
Pour la petite histoire Angèle est un peu le couteau suisse du journalisme. Elle filme comme on peut le voir sur cette photo, mais elle est aussi rédactrice et une excellente présentatrice du journal. Je n'oublie pas mon ami Fred qui est un journaliste de terrain et lui aussi, un talentueux présentateur du journal télévisé. Nous avons souvent travaillé ensemble comme chroniqueurs judiciaires.
Rouen (France) - During the demonstration against the law on raising the retirement age, I had the pleasure of meeting up with friends and former colleagues. Angèle on camera and Fred on the microphone. I took this photo at the beginning of the demonstration during an interview. It is easier to interview protesters when they are not yet marching. Otherwise, the image reporter (cameraman) is obliged to film and move backwards. An exercise that is not always easy because the demonstrators often walk too fast.
For the record Angèle is a bit like the Swiss army knife of journalism. She films as you can see in this photo, but she is also an editor and an excellent presenter of the newspaper. I don't forget my friend Fred who is a field journalist and a talented television news presenter. We have often worked together as legal reporters.

This ashy prinia was calling out loud, right at the break of the dawn to announce his territory and that fact that he's alive and flying to avoid competition for food, shelter and family!

"I don't think old photographers retire .... they just go out of focus" - Lord Lichfield
Photographer Lord Lichfield dies
Friday, 11 November 2005
Royal photographer Lord Lichfield has died at the age of 66 after suffering a major stroke.
The Queen was among the first to pay tribute to Lord Lichfield, saying she was "deeply saddened" at the news.
Lord Lichfield was the Queen's first cousin once removed and was the official photographer at the wedding of the Prince of Wales to Diana.
He was being treated in the stroke unit at the John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford after falling ill.
The renowned photographer had been staying in the area with friends when he suffered a stroke. He died at 0400 GMT on Friday.
A Buckingham Palace spokeswoman said: "It's a private matter. The Queen is deeply saddened and will be sending private condolences."
Lord Lichfield - who inherited the earldom of Lichfield in Staffordshire from his grandfather - has often been asked by the royals to take their official portraits.
He photographed the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh for her Golden Jubilee in 2002.
In July 1981, he took the official wedding photographs for the Prince of Wales and Lady Diana Spencer.
"He wasn't complicated, he wasn't pretentious, he wasn't an intellectual, he just loved making beautiful images" - Geordie Greig, Tatler editor.
Tatler editor Geordie Greig said Lord Lichfield was an "old-fashioned gentleman" whose best work had been his shots of the wedding.
"The royal wedding was spectacularly memorable, he got the intimacy of the Royal Family, he got that fairytale magic.
"There was a sort of almost Hollywood magic dust spread throughout that shoot and the world enjoyed it.
"He wasn't complicated, he wasn't pretentious, he wasn't an intellectual, he just loved making beautiful images."
Former royal press secretary Dickie Arbiter said Lord Lichfield had been very close to the Royal Family and was noted for the easy way he handled them during shoots, using a whistle to marshal guests at the wedding of Charles and Diana.
"One year, we were shooting a Christmas card at Windsor Castle it was all over in about 15 minutes, he was almost a one-shot man, he would get it perfect the first time."
Baroness Thatcher, whose recent 80th birthday photos were taken by Lord Lichfield, said: "Patrick Lichfield was not only one of the most talented and professional of photographers, he was also an absolute delight to sit for.
"Always courteous and considerate, he had a rare skill which is now sadly gone."
Friend and photographer Terry O'Neill said Lord Lichfield's style was always spontaneous.
"He did go for the moment. He was instinctive. It was part of his nature."
He remembered that the aristocrat liked to be viewed as "one of the chaps".
In a career spanning 40 years, Lord Lichfield worked for Vogue and photographed many stars, including Sixties singer Marsha Hunt, Michael Caine and Joanna Lumley.
As well as editorial photography, he worked on advertising commissions across several industries, including fashion, tobacco and pharmaceuticals.
He was recently commissioned by the British Tourist Authority, and was involved in Hot Shots, a television series for Discovery Real Time in which amateur photographers are taught by professionals.
Interviewed in October by the BBC News website, he told reporter Caroline Briggs: "Remember that the person you are photographing is 50% of the portrait and you are the other 50%.
"You need the model as much as he or she needs you. If they don't want to help you, it will be a very dull picture."
Lord Lichfield's long-term partner was Lady Annunziata Asquith, and he had had three children with ex-wife Lady Leonora Grosvenor - a son, Tom, and two daughters, Rose and Eloise.
Lord Lichfield : BBC News Website Obituary
Friday, 11 November 2005
Lord Lichfield stretched beyond his privileged upbringing to become a world-renowned photographer.
He first used a camera at the age of seven, taking pictures of his family, pets and scenes at his beloved home, the stately Shugborough Hall in Staffordshire.
He attended Harrow School, and took his first pictures of the Queen as he played cricket against Eton.
While his upbringing was aristocratic, Lichfield's great passion for photography carried him far beyond any blue-blooded barriers, and through an extremely successful 40-year career.
The son of Viscount Anson and Princess Anne of Denmark, Patrick Lichfield - the 5th Earl of Lichfield - was the Queen's first cousin once removed.
He made his break into photography in 1962, after leaving the Grenadier Guards.
Starting out as a photographer's assistant on £3 a week, he made the most of his showbusiness and aristocratic connections, snapping everybody from Mick and Bianca Jagger on their wedding day to the Duke and Duchess of Windsor in exile.
Lichfield's memory of the latter encounter was of deliberately falling off his chair to force smiles out of his straight-faced subjects. The result got him a contract with Vogue magazine.
He also worked for a range of other newspapers and magazines, including Life.
One of his most iconic images, which he recently recreated, was the naked pose of the singer Marsha Hunt, complete with a huge afro hairdo for the musical Hair.
Another was Swinging London, which featured Roman Polanski, David Hockney and Lady Antonia Fraser. Other famous subjects included Michael Caine, Joanna Lumley and a host of 1960s glitterati.
His long career was celebrated two years ago with an exhibition at the National Portrait Gallery, and he was awarded fellowships of both the British Institute of Professional Photographers and the Royal Photographic Society.
Most recently, he took a special set of pictures of Baroness Thatcher to mark her 80th birthday.
His position and profession came together most famously in July 1981, when he took the official wedding photographs of the Prince and Princess of Wales, before sitting down to the wedding feast with hundreds of other royals.
From his studio in north Kensington, Lichfield became renowned the world over for his skill with the lens, and personally admired for his straightforward manner.
Although he was one the official photographers of the Queen's Golden Jubilee, he liked being addressed as plain Patrick Lichfield and was at his happiest poring over shots in his studio.
A self-professed "spiv" and admirer of feminine beauty, one of Lichfield's favourite commissions was the famous Unipart calendar, shot in glamorous locations all over the world with an emphasis on stunning models.
Lichfield admitted to having relationships with many of his pretty subjects but, away from the camera, he found companionship in his own well-bred circle.
He was married for 11 years to Lady Leonora Grosvenor, sister of the Duke of Westminster, with whom he had three children.
His most recent partner was the biographer, Lady Annunziata Asquith.
Like the late Princess Margaret, he often took refuge on the Caribbean island of Mustique. It was at his holiday home there in 1992 that he suffered a very bad fall, from which he had difficulty recovering.
Despite this, he continued to work throughout his life, becoming a champion of the digital revolution, and attending to the photography that he described as his "calling".
As he got older, Lord Lichfield reflected on his legacy, wondering what he would leave behind.
Acknowledging his pedigree, he was delighted that Shugborough was smaller but better managed. But he always added: "There are the pictures."

"Weddings.. Be ready for the speeches and cake"
"Weddings.. the photographer must not be distracted by the prettiest bridesmaid!"
