Patrick was a great guy and one of the Observer's best 
photographers.  That was definitely a case of cutting off your nose 
to spite your face.  The boosting of the colors to match what he 
remembered seeing had absolutely nothing to do with the veracity of 
the photos.  The stupid, boring, out-of-focus, grip-and-grin photos 
that they have replaced his photojournalism with have dumbed down the 
entire newspaper!!
