R.I.P Chester Bennington of Linkin Park

Lead singer Linkin Park

Rest In Peace @chesterbe ….I spent 3 days with @linkinpark and @chesterbe on a shoot for @qmagazineuk in 2001.

We we’re in the midst of nowhere USA in the midwest and they we’re playing #Ozfest.

I remember Chester as being a great chilled out and friendly guy, with a glint in his eye. You could tell there was a lot ‘under the bonnet’ in the man.

This is a shot we did unplanned just before sunset close to St Louis I think. Its calmness and rock n roll all rolled into one.

I love that his skin tones match the wood and that the fingers are the reverse of the electrical pylon lines in the back.

God bless you man. You gave a lot of joy to a lot of people and will be sorely missed.
