Any news of Roger

[Bill Clark]

I did send Roger a note on Facebook and I did hear from him.

He said Frances is fighting breast cancer again after 17 years of remission. It has taken a lot of his time.

Maybe, if you’re on Facebook, send Roger a note wishing him best and a speedy recovery for Frances.

Thanks for the update Bill.

I have frequently seen quite innocuous comments removed from threads ... you may not be responsible but it does happen!

Yep, I have too John.

And, the delete button has been gone for sometime now. You may have one, users don't any longer.

Best, pkr

Can anyone see this post?

Did you expect it to be invisible, Joe? <scratches head>

When he was asked to stop posting non-photography related topics here, he got mad, picked up his toys, and left in a huff. He's now over on Amateur Photographer spewing his anti-Brexit screed and generally being abrasive. He may at one time have been a good source of photography information, but his interests now lie in the political realm, and he can't control himself. Better there than here.

 

[Dogman]

Well, I don't much care for politics but I do miss Roger's posts and comments on other subjects. Here's hoping Frances' condition will improve and Roger returns very soon.

I wish nothing but the best for Roger and Frances. He has a talent for sharing interesting photographic information, albeit in in a brusk and arrogant manner. Which is why I've had him on ignore for a long time...

I like Roger, I have his and Frances book, they are well. This is the facts.
The rest is more like speculations, which I prefer not to be involved.

 

[Michael Markey]

Thanks for the up date Bill.
I'll drop him a line .

I had no idea she's been unwell recently Bill, so thanks for letting us know. Roger himself has had some serious health problems over the last twelve months needing a couple of fairly major procedures and consequent stays in hospital. Sounds like it has been a tough year for them both.
Thanks again
Brett

Generally ...forums..in the name of peace...get rid of all the burrs...or the burrs..leave in a huff on their own..
And thru time...all has been said and the info gets watered down, redundant, and boring...and well..the forum aint what it used to be in the end...and this goes for any forum..
imo...best to take the good with the bad..have a few flame wars once in awhile..for the sake of creativity and life..instead of just milk toast...all day long..and negative peace..instead of positive conflict..and then eventual resolution... and harmony..

Ok, let's stop the gossip.

I met Roger and Frances a few times in Arles and they have always been very friendly.
Love the hand painted photos by Frances. Now time to wish her all the best

Roger is a tremendous asset to the forum, full of years of knowledge and experiences that he freely shared. I hope he returns.

As do I, and the sooner the better.

Since his articles in "Amateur Photographer" I've enjoyed and learned from his experiences.

Brusque. You have the best words.

Good wishes and prayers from me to them both.

Brusque.

Yes indeed. 🙂
