I like to think that Jon would approve of all of the photographs here, and that people get out and use the cameras for what they were meant for. I thought the Mother/Daughter shot fit quite well, and certainly put it back. I think Stewart was giving out a compliment, not a judgement of the other photo's.

I did not want anyone to think that I show disrespect to Jon. It is just a photo of two tourists enoying quality Mother-Daughter time.

Stewart,
I removed the second posted photo by me even though it shows two tourists [mother and daughter] having a drink.
Raid, I just spotted this, I'm sorry I didn't make myself clear, I wasn't criticising at all it was just those shots just stood out as being in Jon's style. Not that others were not appropriate in any way.
with regrets, Stewart

Not a glass, but I took this 40 years ago, and I thought it looked like some of Jon's work:

Hi Stewart,
Of course, no harm was done. I know exactly what you mean.

Here's a couple I shot in the spirit of Jon's photography.

Thanks to all that have made this thread a real tribute.
It's become a real "Raise your camera for Jon Claremont".

I owe a lot to the man and would have liked him to stay around.

It's interesting that I didn't see this thread either until today, but as I just posted in the Picks of the Week in the Gallery- Jon was the man there. A glass raised high and a toast to him.
