Photo with 8 notes

The Death and the photographer. This is a visual “curiosity” dedicated to photographers. These gargoyles are in the Cathedral of Palencia (Spain). The cathedral is of Visigothic origin (shown in the crypt), but most of it is Gothic. During the twentieth century works were carried out on rooftops and in these works a friend of the architect in charge of the work died doing some pictures on the roof of the cathedral. The architect asked for permission to place this statue in his honor. Can you guess the profession of the dead friend? I have processed the image a little too much just to be able to show the camera of the photographer.
