Thank you for remembering Alyn. Found this on PetaPixel: Gifted astrophotographer, author, and educator Alyn Wallace tragically passed away last week at the young age of 34. Wallace, born in Wales, had been living in Istanbul, Turkey, where he passed away as a result of a severe infection that caused multiple organ failure. Alyn’s parents, Pauline and Ian, explain on an Instagram post announcing Alyn’s untimely passing that he had been dealing with a pre-existing condition that weakened his immune system. A recent gallbladder stone infection “spread rapidly,” and ultimately took Wallace’s life. Alyn Wallace, known for his brilliant KZhead channel, had most recently published a new video just a couple of weeks ago, which is about the same time as Alyn’s last Instagram post, seen below.
You're a sweet, sweet guy Adam, thank you so much for that heartfelt and honest tribute to Alyn. Love you man and see you next week!
Time flies!!
I’m glad that you took a moment for the acknowledgment at the beginning of the video. Beautifully said and was really nice to hear a point of view from someone who had spent time with Alyn. ❤ thank you Adam.
Wow that's another masterpiece of a vlog. Filled with amazing views and beautiful memories all that completed with stunning photographs 👌👍🔥🙂 Thank you very much for all the effort 👏💪❤️
Beautiful video Adam. That clip with Alyn dancing was a lovely end to the video ❤
Ahh, that little dance of Alyn's bought a tear to my eye.
Beautiful tribute to Alyn, especially the last bit at the end
Thanks Adam for the wonderful tribute to Alyn. As always great video. Thank you so much.
Lovely respects paid to Alyn Wallace. A personable talented gifted and knowledgeable young man who impacted many and will be missed. Much respect to you. I’ve seen tributes on other social media platforms but not on KZhead. Of all of the KZhead Photography community that I follow, you are the only person to make such a tribute on your channel. Kudos
Beautifully bookended video with a moment of tribute for Alyn. When I heard the news I thought of you - you were just the connection I knew.
Very nice. It rained thought out only photography stop at Elgol, plus the riding tide cut us off on the far side of the cliff.
Nice tribute to Alyn ♥. Never met him but followed his KZhead channel. He taught me so much. I was looking forward to meeting him in Kanab Utah this fall and learning oh so much more. I only recently bought his Lightroom Pre-sets for astrophotography. He was so talented. Way too young to loose such a talented person. He is missed.
Very nice and heartfelt tribute, Adam.
Great video and love that you showed both the raw and finished images.
Beautiful images Mr Gibbs and I didn't know about Alyn, I do astro & land so have been watching you guy's more than a few years, and that is so so very sad too hear.
R.I.P. Alan 😢🌹 Excellent Landscape photography, again 👍👌
RIP Alyn Wallace. I was never into astro photography, but I respect those who are. Alyn was a master, and an enthusiastic one.
Thank you so much for sharing your memories of Alyn, such a beautiful tribute.
Lovely images as ever and a lovely tribute to Alyn.
fantastic images Adam thank you for sharing RIP Alyn
Lovely tribute to Alyn, very sad.
I appreciate your heartfelt words for Alyn, we will all miss him. I enjoyed your images from the coast. They are inspiring and show us that patience’s pays off. Cheers.
Nice tribute to Alyn Adam. Deeply shocked to hear he's passed away and my thoughts go out to his family and friends. I also followed his KZhead channel and as well as enjoying his work in astrophotography, I felt proud to be inspired by a fellow Welshman during my photography journey. Well done for the video again Adam and fantastic images. I'm continuing to be highly influenced by you for landscape photography. Keep up the great work.
Always a great eye for compositions!
Absolutely stunning images! And, so sorry about your friend. I’ve seen his work and enjoyed it. An absolutely amazing astrophotographer!!!
Very nice tribute to Alyn, Adam. I think the wonderful thing about Alyn was how he made something so vast as space seem attainable. His passion made us fall in love with it too. I remember in one of his videos he mentioned all the Starlink satellites being up in space and ruining the space-scape, if that’s a thing. Tonight I watched a Starlink launch and thought of him. Don’t think any of us will look up to the stars again and not think of Alyn. I hope he knew how well liked he was. 😌 - - - - Looks like a fantastic area. Beautiful photos and always. Thanks for sharing.
Great video Adam, Elgol is such an amazing spot, great to see your take on it 👏👏
Cheers, mate!
Hello Adam, Very nice tribute to Alyn. My wife and I were on that Antarctica cruise with you , Alyn, Nigel and James. One day were in a Zodiac with Alyn photographing whales. He was in front of me and my wife and asked how I was keeping my lens so dry. I told him I was using him as a shield. Vey nice photos.
Haha great wind shield. Thanks for that!
Lovely tribute, thank you. And I like the long exposure shots. Takes the focus from an uninteresting sea to the other objects and textures in the shot. I'm glad you didn't call them "fine art".
Sad news indeed about Alyn; nice words Adam.
Great work on the long exposures. That was the perfect location to use it with plenty of texture in the rocks so you could go really smooth with the water and clouds. Alyn dancing - so sweet. ❤
Lovely tribute buddy! And a nice feel to the video, love them shots brother, nice to see some different from that spot
Thanks a ton!
That was a very lovely tribute Adam!
Thanks for the video.
You bet
💔 ❤
Great video. I went to Algol 20 years ago (shooting transparency). I guess it's time for a revisit but I'm dubious as to whether I could manage the drive nowadays as Im getting old!
Really enjoyed watching his videos. Some amazing images and of course his book which was a great achievement. A very unique photographer one that will be missed I'm sure.
Adam, I think you said what we all felt about Alyn. He inspired me on more than one occasion to spend some cold lonely times out at night in the middle of nowhere.
Sorry for the loss of your friend Adam. There seems to be too much of that lately. On a better note the images are excellent, thank you as usual for taking us along.
It is interesting to see the photographic aesthetic evolving. I mean, that is what it looks like to me over these last few years. More photographers looking for some thing, some perspective, which has not yet been explored a great deal. Some nice images, Adam...as usual.
Nice video 👍
Beautiful images. That is some spectacular shadow recovery in the later shots. Safe travels.
11:23 is a super shot !
Adam you make my Sunday mornings, always enjoy your videos. So sorry to hear about Alan.
Excellent pictures from Egol, thanks fot sharing.
Awsome. Great memories from Elgol.
Thank you so much. Alyn was so marvellous. The world is not fair. The 'pointy peak' is Sgurr na Stri (the Peak of Strife), I've camped on top.
A superb early morning pano Adam!
Always a sad loss when someone so young passes on and Alan was so passionate about his astro photography. We all take our health for granted, but as I have seen so many times things can change in an instant. My thoughts are with his family 😞
so sad about Alyn, i am off for a weeks stay in Elgol in three weeks, years ago, we used to travel the 550 miles in my 1968 Austin Healey Sprite, that would invariably fail with starter motor problems, luckily Elgol has plenty of down hill roads for bump starting. , and Great images
It's a tricky place that Elgol. On my last visit it was impossible to see the Cuillins due to poor visibility. Your patience and tenacity got your some very nice shots. Just to echo all the other comments about your thoughtful tribute to Alyn's life. To be honest, I was really hoping that you'd say something, and you did - so big respect to you Adam. What a terribly sad and irreplaceable loss. Only because you mention it in your video, you'll be aware now that Alyn's family has released a statement which included clarification on the cause.
I burnt my cluch out on that hill! Had to drive 6hours home trying not to change gear 😮😮😮😅
Lovely shots Adam. So sad about Alyn Wallace, difficult to fathom when you're a lot older?
Thanks for the video, Adam. I'm sorry for the loss of your friend. As always you have brilliant shots in this video, I envy your talent in a very kind way. I'm a landscape photographer too (not as cool as you). There is a lot to see and photograph in the country where I live. If you ever find yourself in Serbia, I will be glad to show you the rare and untouched nature in the heart of the Balkan Peninsula. Sometimes I can't believe that I am the only person for miles around, and that at this very moment I am only a couple of hours flight away from the main European capitals. Congratulations again on the stunning shots: the ring stone is fantastic!
You're lucky to have the place to yourself.It's getting harder to find those areas.
Cheers Adam, this is Sean in Atlanta. My condolences to you and your friends, family and associates on his passing. This is never an easy thing to deal with, especially when it is so sudden and unexpected. While I personally am not familiar with him, I will re-look at the video you spoke of, but know that my thoughts, prayers and wishes go out to you and anyone who is hurting because of this gentleman’s passing. I think we have reached the stage where life has ceased to give us as much as it is taking away… Sean
Heading to the beach in Prince Edward County for the eclips tomorrow. Thanks for the tips and ideas. I Have my D810 set up for the eclips and do a timelaps with my GH5 in the opposite direction. Prey I don't screw up LOL.
😮wow horrible news,never expected to hear this about Mr . Wallace. RiP 🙏
Alyn's dead a definitely a loss......
