Brian Harris took wonderful pictures for the Independent and others. I am sad to hear he is gone, and so happy I knew him and the other photographers of the Independent for a while. This is from Prague in 1989. I wasn’t there; Brian made me wish I had been and feel that maybe I was. lnkd.in/eqgeDpay
