Farewell Cyril Brunner (June 21st, 2008)

A good friend of mine, Cyril Brunner, is traveling back to his home country of Switzerland. He was only in the U.S. for a year with his job but he soon became a good friend, naturally with his personality. He is the kind of person that once you meet him you probably won't ever forget him. He is also a very talented photographer. His work can be seen on his foto community pages:

He is always eager to teach me how to become a better photographer. He will always be an inspiration for me and my work. Thanks Cyril!!

Aimee Tetreault was kind enough to throw a going away bash for Cyril and I did my best to capture the moments of the evening....enjoy!
