Passing of a Russian iPhone photographer

Not intending to start any discussion on the political matters.  Just wanted to share this touching story of the life of this photographer I haven't been aware of.

Thank you Akira, for bringing this to our attention. I like his style of photography, he is - was - really talented. Such a pitty he is no more. It also proves the tool doesn't really matter, it's the talent that counts.
