Hi friends. While I don't think he was ever much of a poster, a young UER lurker and someone I was beginning to become friends with has passed away doing the thing he loved most: exploring.

Connor was climbing the roof of a Four Seasons in New York in an attempt to get a panoramic view of the city when he fell through a hole in the scaffolding and sadly lost his life. He was both from the town next to mine growing up and we ended up at the same college later on. I had only had a couple conversations with him about photography since then and I just found out the news this morning. I don't know his UER lurker but I know for a fact he was one, as it was something we had in common when we first met.

Here's Connor's last photo, while slightly morbid I find it poignant to share his last triumph with the world, especially UER.

Was he a UER member?




Just when I thought I was out... they pulled me back in.

This is the thing that scares me about getting into rooftops. One wrong move is all it takes. Horrible.
