Dan was a dear friend who we all met through a shared passion for photography. We made numerous journeys together to Iceland, Svalbard, Greenland and beyond but Scotland was somewhere that he always loved returning to. He was a talented photographer but we will remember him above all for his wry wit, kindness and wisdom. He was a man who always loved engaging in conversations over a wide range of subjects. Widely read and equipped with a brilliant intellect, he nevertheless wore his intelligence lightly. One always felt that he was paying close attention and never felt talked down to. We all miss him dearly. David Ward
