Earlier this week Master Cpl Darrell Priede, a Canadian war photographer was killed in action in Afghanistan.

The CTV network has a small portfolio of his work.

I am not sure if the work is analog, digital or both, but does that really matter.

This is a quote from a story about him in the June 1, 2007 Globe and Mail newspaper:

"He set up his own business, Darrell Priede Photography, in Oromocto, N.B., where he shot weddings and portraits.

"He loved photography. It was a passion," said Sergeant Todd Berry, an Army News reporter in Halifax who often went on assignment with him.

"He was an outstanding and gentle person who loved his life and loved his country."

May he RIP.
