Merci pour ton touchant message, Philippe me manque et il me/nous manquera toujours, comme tu le dis, ?a a ?t? un shock totalement inattendu. Nous sommes fragiles et nous ne nous rendons pas compte du bonheur d?ouvrir les yeux tous les jours et vivre des nouvelles petites ?xp?riences. Tu le sais bien car Philippe et moi nous avions un contacte direct et souvent, nous avons partag? beaucoup plus que la photographie, comme la culture, la musique (je revais d??tre un jour ensemble au "Palau de la Musica?) et aussi de la bonne humeur. Le souvenir de lui et des moments qu?on a pass? ensemble sont tr?s vif dans ma m?moire ainsi que celle de tous les amis qui ont eu la chance de partager avec lui des moments inoubliables. Connais-tu ce qui a fait Cartier-Bresson ? l?enterrement de son ami Robert Doisneau? il a pris une pomme et l?a divis? en deux, une moiti? l?amang? lui m?me et l?autre l?a jet? au tombeau de son ami lui disant ?? toi, mon ami!?, j?aurais aim? en faire autant.
