A huge loss to our community. We have lost a great photographer and a 
tireless campaigner.

But he was more than a photographer. All his work for the indigenous 
inhabitants of the Amazon, against oppression of peoples everywhere and 
as a tireless campaigner for the environment made a vast contribution to 
each field. I hope that it will be carried on.

May he rest in piece.
