I would like to add something to anyone that has looked this far.
One of the things about making this for me was the reminder of how good it can be to reach out. I saw a photo of Harry online and reached out to Derek for his permission to use it. The response from Derek was not only a yes but also more images that weren't online and a whole story about how they were taken etc. This included the fact that he won a high level award for one of them. He returned to Harry to share the award with him but, sadly, he discovered that Harry's funeral had taken place just 2 weeks earlier.
It reminded me of how I once wrote to Nelson Mandela out of courtesy to tell him I was going to use his image in a controversial art work (details on my website in the crucifixation part). I did not expect a reply but got one - which included photos for me to use, newspaper cuttings and a book for my library.
This sort of thing has happened many times and has even got me into the heights of the Moscow State University and the secret passages in Warsaw's palace of Culture.
It was reaching out that made https://forum.dji.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=239268 possible (again details on my website).
In many ways it is what makes this forum so good. |
