Paul Ickovic RIP

[Dogman]

The French site In Memoriam : Paul Ickovic (1944 – 2013) - The Eye of Photography Magazine is reporting photographer Paul Ickovic has died.

I am a great admirer of Ickovic's photography and his passion. He is one of the lesser known contributors to the art but his work was/is amazing. It has been noted he worked with one Leica, a 35mm lens and B&W film for all his career and he produced some truly beautiful photos.

Google has a good deal of information and some of his photos paul ickovic - Google Search

He had a real eye. RIP, old soul.

Knowing that he captured these with just a 35 has that Leica romance to it. Not easy to commit to just one lens, but he really nailed it.
