RogBrown -- Roger Brown

For you old-timers on EPZ I have some very sad news as my good friend RogBrown passed away yesterday after a lengthy battle with cancer.
I met Rog through EPZ many years ago and we hit it off straight away, sharing a common interest in HDR, photoshop, good beer and fine pub lunches. Not for us the trials and tribulations of landscape photography, we didn't like getting cold or wet and waiting for the light was just a waste of good drinking time. No, give us a nice dry cathedral or country church with a decent local pub and we were like pigs in muck.
So if any of you knew Rog and want to leave a comment then please feel free.
Rest assured though that if there are pubs in heaven then Rog will be leaning on the bar now with a pint in his hand, and yeah he may well get round to a spot of photography a little later ............
RIP Rog

Roger was a good friend to have. He did not take life too seriously but he did like his photography especially if it came with a good pint of ale and a Pub lunch.
I remember him one day when he said that he was going to have chemotherapy. The only thing that worried him was that he might lose his mustache which he had become very attached to over the years that it had been adoring his top lip. When he had finished his first course of chemotherapy he had a smile on his face that stretch from ear to ear. He had not lost his beloved mustache.
That's the way he faced life and in the end death. Take it as it comes.
I will miss him but a good friend of mine said to me today, Remember the good things. That's true. Roger will always be with me even if I cannot see or speak to him.
My condolences to his Wife Roger's sole mate.

Thanks guys. The lovely thing about EPZ is that even though you never actually meet people they can become "virtual" friends by nature of a shared love of photography and through banter on photo comments and forum threads. I was lucky enough to claim Rog as a "real" friend too. We had some great outings and I've many happy memories.
