[Leica] Paris Photo

[Gerry Walden]

My thoughts and sympathies are of course with the people of the lovely, gentle, city of Paris. I am in Barcelona to meet Lluis at the moment and watched the news as it broke on France 24 TV. The distress as the news came through was palpable, first one attack and then another. Paris is a city for lovers not haters, and this is unbelievably tragic.

It is always a wonderful show, and Paris is a wonderful city to visit as a photographer, or indeed as an ordinary tourist. Until my wife got ill, I went to Paris Photo every year, and I was sorry I couldn't go there again this year.

To Philippe and the other photographers we know in France, or any one else who is in Paris, I hope you and your loved ones are safe and that you have my deepest sympathies on this tragedy.
