Lichfield was always interesting to me. He lived his life for himself and
for the comforts of life itself. So, few people herald in his past, but for
himself and what I got out of his life . . . it was a life that lacked the
lust for more than living.
Now, he's dead.
I enjoyed seeing snips of his life in the press and always knew it was he,
behind those endorced pictures, releases by the Royal family. Good for him.
Long live his ordinary long tonal pictures. I liked the pictures.

An interesting take on Lichfield here:

Considering their backgrounds and obstacles they had to surmount, I'm
much more impressed with the life of Pat Morita.

Two Pats, such very different lives--one a Lord and photographer of
privilege, the other privileged to be a photographic subject.
Sad to say I knew little of either man's life until they had passed. I
did, however, know, "Wax on. Wax off."
Cheers,
