Bob Taylor - 2023

Bob Taylor

Bob, a club member of ipernity for many years, passed away in November, 2023. Bob led a very well rounded life including literary art, music, mountains, and family. He came to photography after retirement, seldom seen without a camera around his neck and his lenses taking up home among his fiddles and books in his study.

Bob will be remembered for many things, including his humble generosity and the detailed beauty of the natural world in his photographs. He often including the details of his camera settings with his photos. His generosity also extended to his allowing anyone to download and use his photographs. Bob's ipernity account remains with that allowance.

Some of Bob's well loved photos, including a photo of his fiddle that we still use in our spring homepage collection:
