It is with sadness that I learned that one of my favorite photographers, Tony Vaccaro has passed.  Born December 20, 1922 he just made his 100th birthday.  I started following him once I purchased his book ” Entering Germany” .  This book was born of photos he took while serving in WWII in Europe.  Ever since then I followed him on social media, most recently Instagram.  His work was shown at Monroe Gallery in Santa Fe which I would visit almost like a pilgrimage.  He came down with COVID months ago and I thought that might be it for him but he rallied to make it to his 100th.  He will be missed.
