I hadn't heard of him until this reading this article. Sounds like there's going to be a big hole to fill in the photo community without him.

Talk about an impressive resume. I really like that they included a little bit of information on his early days; it's always nice to see that these almost superhuman artists often have origins that aren't far off from our own.

Very informative read. I'd heard of Lyons name before, but I had no idea that he was the mind behind SPE. Thanks for sharing!
