Fabio photosofghosts - 2024

Fabio

In September 2024, our long time club member Fabio passed away.

While Fabio photographed many different things, he loved photographing people. He came over to Ipernity from Panoramio sharing street scenes with lone people in them. He took touching portraits of the poorest and of the forgotten, most of them in his unique b/w. Everyday reality in general was his favourite subject. His love of the ‘l’heure bleue’ (blue hour) can be seen in many of his images and he even commented on that on his last photo with us. He was a kind , generous and caring man who had many contacts here with whom he shared a deep connection. Fabio ended his time here with us with a photo (Exit) whose title sounds now as a sad premonition of what would happen in a short time : his Exit from IP and unfortunately from this life.

A group in his honor remains open for contributions: www.ipernity.com/group/2800806

Below are some of his well loved photos and his last contribution.

Fabio….das Foto der Tanzenden war das Foto, welches ich mit ihm verbinde.
Er war ein Meister der „Straße“ und seine Kommentare waren Poesie…
Mein Beileid seiner Familie…R.I.P. Fabio…

Difficile, sempre più difficile trovare parole.
Abbiamo sempre detto che le immagini parlano per noi.
E le tue foto, Fabio caro, dicono tutto .
Che parlino e che ci raccontino per sempre di te, della tua gentilezza, della tua grande umanità e della tua profonda empatia .
Un saluto affettuoso, Amico mio.

Un choix très pertinent de photos qui représentent Fabio de façon très juste.
Un photographe très fin et humaniste, doublé d'un ami exigeant d'une immense générosité. Dont l'avis clairvoyant nous manque déjà cruellement.

Addio a te, nostro buon amico. Riposa nella pace eterna e nei nostri cuori addolorati.

Fabio weilt nun schon 1 Monat nicht mehr unter uns. Und immer noch bin ich sprachlos, macht es mich unendlich traurig. Dieser stille, feine Herr (ja, so hab ich ihn immer gesehen, ganz ernsthaft, ohne jede Ironie) soll plötzlich nicht mehr da sein ? "Photosofghost" mit seinem unnachahmlich empathischen Blick für alles Menschliche wird nie wieder fotografieren, kommentieren, uns mit seinen einmaligen Straßenszenen beglücken ? Seit Panoramio-Zeiten war er immer da. Er wird fehlen, mir besonders, er war auch Jahrgang 1954.

Ci hai lasciato un mese fa, ma sei sempre qui, Fabio caro.
Muore solo chi viene dimenticato e tu sei più vivo che mai, Amico.
