Bill Jay 1940 - 2009

Although the photography magazine LensWork, a fine art B&W publication,  is by no means a nature photography periodical , I have been a regular reader for ten or eleven years.  It is probably the most beautifully published photography magazines in the world and I enjoy many of the articles.  At the end of each issue was “EndNotes”, a selection of quotes (quips may be a better word) by photo historian, author and photographer Bill Jay.  I was so intrigued by his writing that I purchased his books “On Being a Photographer” and “Occam’s Razor”. Mr. Jay had a way to cut to the meat of any issue.  He argued for clear language when critiquing or reviewing photography and often assailed art critiques for their obtuse language.   I will miss his wit and sense of humor.
