That's a very sad photo. He certainly looks from that picture like a man 
drinking himself to death.

You have captured him in a very sympathetic yet brutally honest way. That's one 
hell of a photo. I agree with Bob: one of the best seen here.

It's tough to look at.

I'm very sorry for your loss.

Cheers,
frank

Subject: PESO: RIP Tommy

Hi all,

Once again, I captured the last image ever someone I knew -- in this 
case, a guy named Tommy Pool. He used to frequent the club where I tend 
bar, but a little over a year ago, he applied for a re-enrollment and he 
was declined by the membership due to his inability to control his drinking.

Well, that didn't stop him from drinking himself to death, which he a 
couple of weeks ago. I'd dropped by his place with a friend a few weeks 
prior and he was in his usual condition. I happened to be carrying my 
camera that night and decided to pop off a few shots. This was the last 
one of the bunch:

Comments are, as always, welcome.
